Your poetry on radio?
Hi ,
I host a small segment named alfaaz on merasangeet.com ,one of the leading online radio station for bollywood and hindi songs.
Alfaaz is a segment to promote poetry ,short stories and spoken words. Its like a social experiment to see if there is still an audience for spoken words and poetry.
If anyone is interested to hear their stories,poems,shayri on radio , please feel free to reach out.
You can submit your entries on
https://www.facebook.com/merasangeet
please do mention that it is for segment "Alfaaz"

I can give you a shayari -

Wah wah...
Door se dekha toh kuch bhi nahi tha
Wah wah wah wah...
Par pas jaakar dekha,
.....
Par pas jaakar dekha, toh bhi kuch bhi nahi tha"

So happy to know about your poetry. Will check it. Please share when you upload it on youtube.
Saru.

Hi Madhur,
That is indeed very cool. And I applaud your thought for reciting the work of amateur writers like us. Following are few of the poems which I feel you can look at.
1 http://sarusinghal.blogspot.com/2011/10/nine-months-and-more.html It portrays the feelings of a pregnant lady and her excitement for motherhood.
2 http://sarusinghal.blogspot.com/2012/02/bits-and-pieces.html It's about how people who stay away from their country feel.
3 http://sarusinghal.blogspot.com/2011/12/lost-abode.html This poem is written on the life of a war widow.
4 http://sarusinghal.blogspot.com/search/label/Hindi%20Poems This is the link to my hindi poems which are written in the form of soft lyrics.
I have also submitted my hindi poem ' ठरकी मन बावरा' on your FB page. Hope you find something worthy to be aired on your show.
Thanks for writing,
Saru.
Saru Ji,
The pleasure is all mine :)
Will surely go through

The pleasure is all Mine:)

Uma the pleasure is all mine :)
I promise to get your poem up on youtube by this weekend.
Hi Madhur,
Wish I have the privilege of getting short listed. If you don't like the poems I shared earlier. Could you please tell what kind of poems you are looking for? I will be more than happy working for it.
Thanks,
Saru:)
Hi Saru,
I feel too small to actually shortlist any poem :). I have read your poems and all of them are great,just that sometimes I am unable to do justice to the poem .I keep visiting all blogs posted here to look for poems and this week We ae featuring a poem by shamsud
But if I am asked about what kind of poems I am able to record with ease ,it would imclude these points
1.Hindi preferred (Not cumpolsory, almost 30% of my recordings are english)
2.Something that can go upto atleast 1 minute when spoken
3.Rhyming poetry is generally good
4.Predictable pattern in poetry helps when recording as the tune is natural
Again these are just the type of poems I have been able to do justice to, I am always open to experimentation and keep trying diferent things.
I wish i could record all,but since I am faced with an extreme shortage of time owing to my MBA ,I tend to chose the simplest to record :).
Hope it helps.
My Aim is to get atleast 1 poem of every person who has posted here on Radio or Youtube
hi Madhur
msged my poems link on ur FB page
waiting for response
if u have specific demand than i can send some other poems
Hi,
I was unable to find it, which page did you message it to?
Hi Madhur,
I perfectly understand and please concentrate on your MBA. Happy for Shamsud, will congratulate him personally. And good that mentioned the points here, will help those who are looking to get featured.
Regards,
Saru.
Hi Saru,
3 questions:
Do you have slightly longer poems?
If not,is it possible to combine two poems to form a single story?
Would you mind if I try and combine 2 poems of yours..?
Uma your poem's youtube link is now up...check thr url in decription...Feedback appreciated
Done !! And shared as well in FB and Twitter
It was a honor for me and you have done it with your amazing voice. Oh My! Thank You so much Madhur
Hope to see more of my poems in future too
Keep rocking
