What helped him discover his poetic language was heartbreak! The story goes that as a college student Nida was infatuated with a classmate. Though father Dua Dubaivi was also a poet, Fazli found it difficult to relate to his traditional Daagh School of Poetry.
Fazli is a sum of many parts.īorn on October 12, 1938, the Gwalior-bred Nida Fazli is a maverick alright. The mysticism of Bhakti poets, the surrealism of Sufi thought, the existentialism of TS Eliot and European writers, the Marxist leanings of Russia and free India. or fail to find epiphany in Apni marzi se kahan apne safar ke hum hai (TV serial Sailaab)? Categorically, his pen has borrowed gravitas from myriad influences. or remain unmoved by the existential angst in Kabhi kisi ko muqammil jahan nahin milta (Ahista Ahista). What better idiom can intoxication find than in Hosh walon ko khabar kya (Sarfarosh)? Who can remain unyielding to love in Tu iss tarah se meri zindagi mein shaamil hai (Aap Toh Aise Na The). Though not a prolific songwriter, the poignant beauty of his poetry has won merit amidst mediocrity. Author/writer/ poet Nida Fazli is a man of many mediums, many metaphors. That explains why writing lyrics is just one hue in his creative kaleidoscope.
Muqtida Hasan Nida Fazli sums up his nonconformist literary lattice in these lines from Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less travelled by, And that has made all the difference.
