NEW DELHI: VP Hamid Ansari has noted that the late filmmaker and Urdu writer KamalAmrohvi was a legend who contributed a lot to the promotion of Urdu language through his remarkable writings.
Ansari was speaking at the release of ‘Dard-e-Dil Likhun Kab Tak‘ (in Urdu and Hindi) authored by Rukhsar Amrohvi, daughter of the legendary film director. The VP also complimented the author for bringing out such a valuable book in Hindi as well.
The book consists of poems composed by the poetess and some rare photographs which are not a family album but record the historic moments of Indian cinema, which is completing 100 years of its glorious existence.
The book is a valuable addition in Urdu literature, Ansari noted.
