Timeline
Muqtida Hasan Nida Fazli, known as Nida Fazli (12 October 1938 – 8 February 2016 ), was a prominent Indian Hindi and Urdu poet, lyricist and dialogue writer.
This happened one year after Fazli had moved from Gwalior to Mumbai (in 1964) to earn a living.
This departure of his parents was an epochal event in his life, the pain and repercussions of which would remain with him all his life.
His second wife was Malti Joshi.
They became the parents of a daughter, Tehreer.
While still young, Fazli was passing by a Hindu temple where a bhajan singer was singing a composition of Surdas about Radha sharing her sorrow with her maids at being separated from her beloved Krishna.
The poetic beauty of the Pad, relating to the close rapport and bonding between human beings, inspired Nida to begin writing poems.
During that period, he felt that there were limitations in Urdu poetry.
He absorbed the essence of Mir and Ghalib to express what he intended.
He was fascinated by the lyrical mood of Meera and Kabir and widened his knowledge of poetry by studying T. S. Eliot, Gogol and Anton Chekhov.
He moved to Mumbai in search of a job in 1964.
In the early days of his career, he wrote in Dharmayug and Blitz.
His poetic style attracted the notice of filmmakers and writers of Hindi and Urdu literature.
He was often invited to Mushairas, the prestigious recitation sessions of one's own poetry.
He became known among readers and ghazal singers for his elegant presentation and exclusive use of colloquial language for ghazals, dohaas and nazms, while avoiding ornate Persian imagery and compound words to simplify his poetry.
He wrote the famous couplet: 'Duniya jise kehte hain jaadu kaa Khilona hai Mil jaaye to mitti hai kho jaaye to sona hai'.
Some of his famous film songs include Aa bhi jaa (Sur), Tu is tarah se meri zindagi mein (Aap To Aise Na The) and Hosh waalon ko khabar Kya (Sarfarosh).
As a result, he was boycotted in some poetic sessions.
His career improved when Kamal Amrohi, a filmmaker, approached him.
In 1965, eighteen years after the partition of India, his parents and other family members migrated to Pakistan.
He however decided to stay back in India.
The original songwriter Jan Nisar Akhtar working on the film Razia Sultan (1983) had died before completing the project.
Nida wrote the final two songs and attracted other Hindi filmmakers.
He teamed up with Jagjit Singh in 1994 to bring an album named Insight, which got appreciation for its soulful poetry and music.
Shortly before his death he wrote columns for BBC Hindi website on various contemporary issues and literature.
Mirza Ghalib's works were often mentioned by him.
Nida Fazli is a poet of various moods and to him the creative sentiment and inner urge are the sources of poetry.
He thinks that the feeling of a poet is similar to an artist: like a painter or a musician.
In contrast he found lyric writing a mechanical job as he had to fulfil the demands of the script and the director.
His celebrated lyrics were also used in Aap to aise na the, Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin (1996) and Gudiya.
He wrote the title song of TV serials like Sailaab, Neem ka Ped, Jaane Kya Baat Hui and Jyoti.
His ghazals and other compositions are sung by notable artists of the day.
He was awarded the Padma Shri in 2013 by the government of India for his contribution to literature.
Born in New Delhi, into a Kashmiri Muslim family, Nida Fazli grew up in Gwalior, where he attended school and subsequently studied English literature.
His father was also a very well known Urdu poet.
Two of his other brothers mainly; Tasleem Fazli & Saba Fazli too were prominent names of Indo-Pak.
Their contribution to literature through films/poetry and songs are still cherished today by their admirers both from India and Pakistan.
