Immortal Ghazals: One of the greatest forms of Persian poetry that in India, for the most part, has been the story of Urdu Ghazal. It has been the favourite of both poets and their audiences over centuries. A short lyric, Ghazal demands great skill and thought from the poet, for its couplet must be a complete semantic entity and fully express a whole, well-integrated poetic experience. One of the favourite themes in Ghazal is erotic love and we present some of the most popular ghazals of modern times immortalised by singers Jagjit Singh, Mehdi Hassan, Ghulam Ali, Farida Khanum and Hariharan.
