S2 Ep8: Desi Poets Society

  • Summary

  • Though all cultures may be different, one universal art form binds the oldest civilizations with modern artists. Written tradition passed down in rhythmic fashion has always been dear to the human ear, and the Subcontinent is no different. In this episode, the Maazes delve into the vast and meaningful world of Pakistani poetry. From prior political uses to lyrical excellence in modern-day ghazals, the Maazes examine the verbose veterans of Pakistan’s past, and discuss the many ways that poetic forms like Shayari influence South Asian media even today.
