Al vida! Chitrangada

Hazaaron Khwaishe ki aisi ki taisi
Aye Ghalib, yeh insaaf hai kaisi
Apnay aarmano ka gala ghot kar
Chitrangada chali samhalne grihasti

I normally don’t do such things, write such execrable shers that is. But the news of Chitrangada Singh quitting films, has led me to bury my sorrows in shayri.
Chitrangda. Whose face, according to a film critic, “is a complex map of beauty, mystery and symmetry with the colours of the setting sun”.
Chitrangda. Who I thought was the best replacement for Shabana Azmi as “the thinking man’s actress”.
Chitrangada. Whose sexuality has the smoldering quality of an Emmanuelle Béart.
Chitrangada. Who has chosen to stay in golfer-husband Jyoti Randhawa’s shadow rather than step out into the arc lights.
Chitrangada. Who will just have Hazaaron Khwaishe Aisi and the yet-to-be-released Kal: Yesterday and Tomorrow to show for her obvious acting talents.
(Deep sigh!)

Comments:
Dude!! You're a poet, I didn't know it...

(You smouldering Cyrano, you!)
 
Shukriyaa, huzoor!
 
hey good one!!!
 
Another of Tridip's poetic gems. I am a long time admirer of Tridip's creations, but off late he has been a bit shy towards shairi!! But,
Chitrangada ne badal diya hai Tripdip ka irada,
But bhai, please baant le use adha adha!!!
(Please pardon my humble and atrocious attempt at ...Can't even call it is shairi)
 
Will you guys stop making a travesty of a beautiful thing like Urdu shairi? You are worse even than those loud, lewd performers on that unfunny show, the Great Indian Laughter Challenge, the purpose of which seems to be to find out how low Indians will fall (pun completely intended) to make others laugh. Real banana peel humour, I must say.
 
By the way, Tridib, allow me to point out a few grammatical errors in your 'sher':

Hazaaron Khwaishe (khwahishon) ki aisi ki taisi
Aye Ghalib, yeh insaaf hai kaisi (kaisa)
Apnay aarmano ka gala ghot kar
Chitrangada chali samhalne (sambhalne) grihasti
 
Have you ever heard of shairana licence?
 
Dear Marau...Whatever, I think the least u could have done is appreciate the attempt. This the bane of us Indians - always pull down someone who is doing something which he/she cannot!!!
 
(chuckle) Bagchi, here's my two bit to improve the piece:
Apne armaano(n) ka gala ghot (ghont) kar..

With all your edits, have you realised not a single line rhymes? :-) hilarious!
 
take note Marau,stop pulling people down.appreciate the attempt.
