@hussainhaidry on blended dialects, grammar and syntax. Growing up in a Bohri Muslim family his tongue was a mix of Gujarati, Hindi and Arabic. Also referencing standup comic Zakir Khan's Indori style with more Hindustani influences. @annieszaidi asks about Bollywood's role in keeping Urdu alive. Hussain replies saying "Mogambo khush hua. Woh prasann nahin ho sakta hain." #UrduCultureNow #urdupoetry #urduculture #urbanculture #experimentalart (at India Culture Lab)
Zeenat, a Keralite-Gujarati with no connection to Urdu on how she discovered an interest in it. She works with Urdu typography and scripts. Her work is with the visual end and she echoes Mehtaab's thought on everyday, non-elite Urdu. #UrduCultureNow @IndiaCultureLab (at India Culture Lab)
Mehtaab, Executive Editor of @thewire_in Urdu, on the perception that Urdu is only about poetry, not a language to express everyday thought. The 'bazaar ki zubaan' (not bazaaru zubaan). Also that Maharashtra has the largest number of Urdu readers. #UrduCultureNow @indiaculturelab (at India Culture Lab)
The #UrduCultureNow show at @indiaculturelab is just about to begin and this @parmeshshahani is sprinkling rose water on everyone alternating with posing. #urdu #urdupoetry #urduculture #urbanculture #experimentalart #culture #art #event #indiaculturelab (at India Culture Lab)
