About
Akbar Allahabadi was a bright, witty and affable man with a remarkable sense of humor, which surfaces in his poetry too. He gave a humorous touch even to the serious themes of love and politics. He exhibited a good understanding and command on Urdu language which can be seen in his use of simple language in the most effective way. He also used English words in his poetry to bring about interesting impacts. His poetry ushered the modern culture at that time and clearly portrayed the transition in cultural values. In this episode of ‘Ghazal Studio’, we have collected for you, selected few couplets exploring ‘humor and satire’ which is hallmark of Akbar Allahabadi.
