This book is about Sahir Ludhianvi, one of the greatest poets and lyricists of Hindi films. Sahir Ludhianvi, whose original name was Abdul Hayee, wrote poems that were different from his contemporaries who limited themselves to singing paeans on god, beauty, or wine. Instead, his poems were about other things: declining values of society, the meaninglessness of war and the subsummation of love by consumerism.

स्त्री मन को उकेरने वाले बोलते चित्र
यह कहानियां नहीं, बोलते चित्र है जिसे बड़ी सहजता और संवेदनशीलता से एक महान कथाकार अमृता प्रीतम ने उभारा है, जो स्त्रियों के मन की पीड़ा कैनवस पर बिखेर देती है, जहां महिला तमाम बंधनो, रीति-रिवाजों और पूर्वाग्रहों का शिकार रही है. इन रीति-रिवाजों के आलम में किस तरह से पितृसत्तात्मक समाज उनका शोषण करता आया है, उसका भी उन्होंने इस से चित्रण किया हैं कि तरह रहेगी कोई भी संवेदनशील मनुष्य विचलित हो जाए. यह कहानियां आपको हिला कर रख देंगी और आप अंदर से सोचने पर मजबूर हो जाएंगे।

A beautiful experience
it has been the same feeling as if Amrita Pritam herself were narrating those beautiful stories touching the intricate and sensitive parts of human souls. Basically knowing oneself through the characters of those stories by herself. The narrator's voice and style have been just one place below the top of the reasons why I liked this audible book. Of course the topmost reason has to be the stories themselves by none other than Amrita Pritam.
