Irshad Kamil's book of poems launched and read by Bollywood's best !

Eminent Bollywood songwriter Irshad Kamil's first book of poems, Ek Maheena Nazmon Ka, was released in Mumbai today amidst much fanfare. Setting the tone for a poetic evening, Irshad read a poem from the book. It was then launched by Deepti Naval, Farah Khan, Irrfan Khan and Sonam Kapoor. They also read a few poems from the book. 

Irshad is regarded as one of the top songwriters in Bollywood, his words punctuating the music of the biggest films and songs composed by eminent music composers like A.R. Rahman, Pritam and Vishal-Shekhar. Irshad's work in films like Rockstar, Raanjhana and Happy New Year has earned him not only love and acclaim but trophies from the biggest award ceremonies like Filmfare, Screen, IIFA, et al.

Published by Vani Prakashan, Ek Maheena Nazmon Ka is a compilation of 31 beautiful poems by Irshad, one for every day of the month. And before every poem there is a window of thought that transports the reader in the realms of romance and beauty. Says Irshad: "When you are writing for a film you are under different kinds of pressure and while good work can blossom under pressure, some times you need to write for yourself and just let the words flow in their own sweet time. This book is a collection of those freewheeling thoughts and ideas captured in these 31 nazms. Being amidst the contemporary times,I've tried to travel the lanes of love in the light of today's reality."

The book will soon be launched in Delhi by Ranbir Kapoor and Imtiaz Ali. 

Ek Maheena Nazmon Ka, is now available in leading bookstores and on-line portals.
