Toronto, Canada

Hello Rajiv ji,

My name is Yogesh Chaturvedi and I am from Toronto Canada.

I saw your work at Dil-e-Naadaan and also some videos.

I am impressed with your work. With the little knowledge of Urdu, all I can say that you are pioneer in the field.

I also tried my hand a bit in this field two years ago. My first work is at below link.

With kind regards,

Dear Rajeev:

Its wonderful to see you continuing what has always been your first love - Music. I still keep remembering you and your rendering of "Palisamma Muddu Sharade", "Maajhe Maher Pandhari" and several others. Though it has been long in time (20+ years !!!), it has not been long in heart. You gave chance for me to experience the side of music that I was not able to before and had longed for. Came across your site by chance and was pleasantly surprised. Keep it going ..

Rajeev Sahab,
Nahi hargiz aap nathavan-o-naadan!
Magar aap is hizar ke sukraat-e-daana hai.
lassan-e-khom oh mukaddar-ke-sikandar hai.

vakhfiyat-e-jubaan go nayee,
phir bhi, mahr`e phan hai.

Aadaab Rajiv sahab, aisi behtareen ibtedaa e dua aapne likha hai main ne kabhi na suna, aisi dua agar har ek ke dil main rahe to sari duniya kitni khoobsoorat hoti kash!!!

Agar ibtidaa aisi ho tho yaqeenan aapki har gazal ko baar bar padna dil chahta hai.

I am so glad that you have a made this site very beautiful with your gazals

Lewisville - Texas

Is ibtedaa published yet, if so please give us a option on the net to purchase one. Its a beutiful website and very nicely done. Its specially good for non urdu readers and offcourse enjoy all your gazals.

Mumbai

I have read only the Ibtida yet. But I would say that its the most beautiful prayer that I have ever come across. Hope to be able to read the rest and appreciate it better.
Godbless and may your Ibtida be realised!!!

Euless, Texas.

Aapki shairi nau umr, nau khez aur naujawan zehen ki ilmi-o-adabi kaavishon ka ek guldasta sa lagta hai. aapke ash'aar padhta hoon to aisa lagta hai jaise aapki fikr ne aapki takhleeq ka roop dhara hai aur aapke soch bichar ka aks unme dhal aaya hai. "Allah kare zor-e-qalam aur ziyada'.

Vuanakum Rajiv bhai. Mujhe bohut afsos hai ke maiN urdu bohut kam hi jaanta huN. Aapke ghazal bohut mushkil hai mere lyie - bina dictionary khas tor samajta to nahiN :-(

Dekhta huN ke mehman-kitaab meiN log bohut achhe khat bhejte haiN aapke ghazal ke bare meiN yaani bohut log aapke ghazal pasand hai. Is vajah se, mujhko urdu sikhne majburi hai! Umid hai ke ham ek dusre jaldi messenger par milenge. Achha likho...

janaab Rajiv-e-naadaaN saahib: aap se aur aap ki shaairi se maiN aek taweel arse(!) se waaqif rahaa hooN, aur mahzooz hotaa rahaa hooN. aap kee fikr, aap kaa falsafa, aap kaa andaaz-e-bayaan -- kis kis cheez kee taareef karooN, kis kis ko daad dooN?

sirf itnaa kahooNga k aap kee shaairi se maiN ne bahut kuchh seekhaa aur paayaa hai, aur ummeed hai aainda bhi yeh silsila jaaree rahega. aur haaN, mujhe bhi Khud apni ek site shuru karne par majboor karne ke liye aap kaa tah-e-dil se mutashakkir hooN.
