Saif Ali Khan Interview Reveals his Views about Poetry
When the anchors asked the Race star about whether he liked poetry, he mentioned that he liked Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Mirza Ghalib but suddenly laughed and retracted his statement by saying he was talking rubbish. Nawab was being sarcastic at first but he explained it was not his age to read such stuff and said his parents liked Faiz and Ghalib.
Mirza Ghalib was a Persian/Urdu Poet from the Mughal Empire during the time of the British Raj in the subcontinent. His poetry often depicted life as a continuous struggle till the end. Before Ghalib, poetry was somewhat limited to pleasures and perils of love but Ghalib’s touch of philosophy, pain, and mystery expanded the scope of poetry altogether.
Faiz on the other hand came around 40 years after Ghalib. His style was largely left-wing and revolutionary Urdu poetry. Faiz did pick up romantic poetry where Ghalib left it but mainly focused on the political ideology of socialism.
Those youngsters seeking to learn poetry might have been confused at what they heard in Saif Ali Khan interview.
