    In the Year of Sahir: Diary by Nasreen Munni Kabir

    Chennai, India. Westland. pages.

    MUCH OF INDIA’S LITERARY and cinematic worlds are geared up to celebrate with considerable enthusiasm the birth centenary of Sahir Ludhianvi (Abdul Hayee; –), “a colossus among film lyricists,” considered by many as one of the foremost Urdu poets of the twentieth century. As her contribution to these festivities, Nasreen Munni Kabir, the eminent scholar of Indian film, has published this elegantly designed, spiral-bound, diary-like collection of reminiscences of Sahir’s many prominent friends and colleagues, numerous, never-before-published photographs, brief, incisive essays, remarks, and intriguing personal bits and pieces of sahiriana. For example, the back cover shows Sahir’s actual diary for August 23–26, , along with his entry for the 24th: “Kaifi / Dinner – Faiz,” presumably a meeting with poet Kaifi Azmi (–) and dinner with poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz (–).
