In response to a question, he said that we are actually going through a period of overall decline. People are leaving from every department, but new people are not coming. Be it painting or singing, poetry or novels and fiction, singing or acting, every field is in decline. The true servants of literature are now left empty-handed. Books are not published in such large numbers. Even if they are published, their echoes are heard for a few days. Now it is a situation that they are not sitting, nor are the cafeterias inhabited. The number of mushairas has decreased. Even if there are, people's interest in them is negligible. People start poetry later, publish poetry collections first.
They say, with the passage of time, it came to pass that literature has gone out of our priorities, the majority on the horizon of poetry are poets who have nothing to do with poetry. When comic poetry was promoted in the name of poetry, poetry fell into decline. Instead of book culture, burger culture got promoted in the society and people started paying attention to stomach instead of worry.

He believes that Ghazal can bear the burden of changing trends of contemporary demands, according to him, the beauty of Ghazal is that it contains its entire promise within itself. Due to the conditions of row, rhyme and bahr, the pearls of words are chosen and the best form is expressed.

His teachers in voice acting are Ahsan Syed and Jamshed Ayub, from these two personalities he has learned a lot in this field, the zero bomb of voice and the payment of sentences is his religion.

In human life, the matter of dreams is also very important. Some of his dreams bring out a form of Shirazification of the facts of life and there are some dreams which are related to every person in practical life. They use their God-given abilities to stimulate thought and vision by giving a unique dimension to the movement and heat of the unconscious through dreams. They are not actually the rasyas of dreams, but they want to make it clear to people to get out of the world of dreams and see that there are other sorrows in the world besides dreams. Dreamers should never forget that life is like gambling with lions, teshahs and stones. Expecting to blossom without any essence of hard work and effort is like wandering in mirages.

Those who walk have left, those
who stay are crushed,
life is from movement. Where
this ritual is ancient, it is here. The people of the age are
running. Those who stay are crushed

There is diversity in the vocabulary and the depth of the call. With devotion and love, even at the level of lyricism and artistic merits, the beautiful shadows of a true and perfect poetry emerge in his words are inspiring and insightful. See a few poems of Izhar Ahmad Gulzar Hashemi Arabic The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allah be upon him)created the embodiment of peace and blessings of Allah be upon
him . What is the style of speech of the Prophet (peace be upon him ) ? .. .. .. I am singing the songs of your praise. I am getting the reward of religion and the world. My lord, what else can I ask for? You have given me, so I am eating. |
