legend kaifi azmi very rare interview

Like most of the Urdu poets, Azmi began as a ghazal writer, cramming his poetry with the repeated themes of love and romance in a style that was replete with clichés and metaphors. However, his association with the Progressive Writers' Movement and Communist Party made him embark on the path of socially conscious poetry. In his poetry, he highlights the exploitation of the subaltern masses and through them he conveys a message of the creation of a just social order by dismantling the existing one. Yet, his poetry cannot be called plain propaganda. It has its own merits; intensity of emotions, in particular, and the spirit of sympathy and compassion towards the disadvantaged section of society, are the hallmark of his poetry. His poems are also notable for their rich imagery and in this respect, his contribution to Urdu poetry can hardly be overstated.[6] Azmi's first collection of poems, Jhankar was published in 1943. His important works including anthologies of poetry, were Aakhir-e-Shab,[2] SarmayaAwaara SajdeKaifiyaatNai Gulistan, an anthology of articles he wrote for Urdu BlitzMeri Awaaz Suno,[2] a selection of his film lyrics, and the script of Heer Ranjha in Devanagari.[8]

His best known poems are AuratMakaanDaaeraSanp, and Bahuroopni.
