Good Luck! :slight_smile:

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2

Didn't get the bolded part.

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2


aazaadii se bahot pahle...another clue: he was sentenced to be hanged and he was!...he was a revolutionist as well.

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2

Hindu, Muslim ya Sikh ?

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2


he was a Sikh! :)

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2

I think Kaka in USA changed his avatar otherwise I would have stolen his pic
of Bhagat Singh and posted here.

That is Bhagat Singh's hand-writing ? Very beautiful.
And he was a scholar of Urdu shair-o-shaairi ? Interesting.

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2


oh yeah...Kaka in USA had his pic as his avatar...:)

yes, he was editor of both Urdu and Punjabi magazines at the time published from Lahore. his Urdu handwriting was awesome.

a tough man on the outside but a soft heart on the inside...his selection of poetry is a reflection of that...

...good job S Tanvir! keep doing that!!! :) see you in the next thread, iA...:)

NOTE:

even to this day, there are older generation of Hindus N Sikhs who write in Urdu rasm ul Khat...mostly, the store owners write your list of things you want in Urdu. sad it is that younger generation of Muslims are na-balad Urdu se. :(

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2

Thanks, good-bye for now.

Also, is Punjabi supposed to be written in Devanagri script or Nasta'liq like Urdu ?

I think it is written in Urdu script in Pakistan but in Devanagri in India.

Re: zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-2


i think it's called gurmukhi in India...Devanagri is Hindi script. Punjabi and Hindi look similar in some ways.

since you are the winner, why don't you open a thread titled:

zaraa pahchaaniye to sahii-3
