Dimensions of Urdu Poetry
"Every age has its own poetry; in every age the circumstances of
history choose a nation, a race, a class to take up the torch by
creating situations that can be expressed or transcended only through
poetry. "
Jean-Paul Sartre
Urdu is a centuries old language. The
soldiers invented it yet it has a royal touch, for the royals took

of Urdu poetry is a phenomenal experience, for it is so rich in
culture, diction, ideas, and expression.

Urdu and Poetry
"Poetry should help, not only to refine the language of the time, but to prevent it from changing too rapidly."
T.S. Eliot
Urdu is a language rich in colors, customs, traditions and culture. This language has adopted words from the Muslims culturally strong back ground of the subcontinent, Persian, Turks and Arabs. Therefore we can find the poetry deep in meaning, philosophical in thoughts and also multi directional. The invasions of the armies of these regions also lead the poetry to be motivational, awakening, and encouraging faiths and beliefs. We can also find an impact of Sanskrit on the poetry of Urdu.

Urdu Poetry and Its Impact
Any literary works, whether prose or poetry has its impact on an
individual or a group in a manner effectually influencing their
sentiments. I am concentrating on Urdu literature specially the poetry.
It is essential and necessary to look into the birth of an Urdu language
and its progress from late fifteenth century. The passage of time has
evidently established its dramatic and profound effects elevating the
language status besides the social, cultural and literal aptitude of the
generations. In addition, it has changed the political situations and
forced the tyrant and weak rules to alter their attitude. The most
impressive part was the integration of communities in oriental
societies. Their cultural and social interaction has developed into
educational interest and produced many eminent personalities.
Urdu Poetry
You may not know what Urdu poetry is if you are not familiar with
Hindu and the traditions that comes with it. There are some questions
that you may be asking yourself. What is Urdu poetry? How to find it?
Why read it?
Writing Urdu Poetry
If you decide that you want to be a writer, then poetry is a good
place to start. Where do you start? How is American poetry different
from Urdu poetry? Why write poetry? You may be asking yourself these
questions and more.
Basic Ingredients of Urdu Poetry
Although Urdu Poetry is a very intricate subject that manifests
itself in many different forms, there are certain basic ingredients that
characterize every Urdu poem. We will now take a look at how a basic
Urdu poem is structured and familiarize ourselves with some of its basic
ingredients.
Urdu Poetry: Strongest Way to Express Your Feelings
Poetry comes out from the Greek word "Poesis" and its meaning is
"Creating or making something", so the poetry means to create something
that will be a source of pleasure for readers. It is an art of old age
and due to evolution in writing and reading in this modern era, Poetry
also evolved and gained a variety of different structures. It is a
continuous source of entertainment for all types of people due to its
huge territory and variety of literature.

A History of Chafing Dishes
Chafing dishes have been around for millennia and are a sort of indoor
barbecue set in the form of charcoal-burning braziers and, possibly, the
forerunner to the fondue set. Beautifully crafted bronze chafing dishes
were found in the ruins of Pompeii, showing they were in during the
first century AD. They were highly prized by the Romans at their lavish
banquets and later mentioned in historical letters dating to 1520, when
the Spanish conquistador, Hernan Cortes, described to Charles V their
profuse usage for keeping plates and dishes warm during sumptuous
banquets for hundreds of gormandizing noblemen at the height of the
Aztec empire. The sixteenth century baroque painter, Diego Velazquez,
portrayed a woman preparing a meal of eggs in a chafing dish and Louis
XV's kitchens used them to keep the dainty dishes for the epicurean
courtiers piping hot. By the seventeenth century this form of cookware
was being documented in household inventories in America.

Four Advantages to Buying London Theatre Tickets Online
Bums on seats is a popular phrase in theatre marketing which underlines
the reality of the theatre world. Just like any business, it has a
dependence on revenue with actors to be paid, producers to be rewarded
and facilities to meet standards that will satisfy even the most fickle
audience members. Even the most celebrated West End musicals suffer this desperate need to put bums in seats, but the task is made considerably easier that London theatre tickets can be bought online.
At first glance, it may not seem such a major coup for the theatre world, but online ticketing has been a positive boon for the industry. The West End has a long history of success, and despite the advent of DVDs, movie downloads and a host of other modes of entertainment, it continues strongly today. But there are reasons why Billy Elliot tickets are still in demand 6 years after the musical show arrived in London, and why dirty dancing tickets are being sought 5 years after its opening night.
The advantages that come with online ticketing are many, but four in particular reflect the true value of that mode of purchase. They are accessibility, speed, advanced planning and avoiding the queues.
Accessibility is key from the perspective of both the theatre and the theatre goer. Theatres need to be able to reach out to the public to ensure that the widest possible market is tapped into. A show may have a market of millions if they concentrate efforts in London only, but that number increased to tens of millions if efforts expand nationwide. By placing tickets for sale online, citizens of Liverpool, Newcastle and even Edinburgh become part of their market. What this means is that, in an era when nationwide travel is relatively hassle free and certainly faster, there is a far greater chance of filling theatres over a longer period of time.
From the point of view of a theatre lover, the fact that the West End is accessible to someone in Edinburgh is a major attraction. Most theatre lovers would harbour an ambition to go to a West End play or musical, and securing tickets for their favourite show online allows them to realise that ambition with ease. Making the journey to London and staying for a weekend is an added bonus to the main event.
Another advantage is speed, with securing tickets now taking a matter of minutes rather than requiring the minor expedition it once did. Even for Londoners, a decision to attend a show could only be acted upon when the box office was open, and even if a booking could be made over the phone, a caller faced the risk of waiting for lengthy periods. All that is needed today, however, is a few minutes on the internet, the relevant personal and credit card details, and a booking number with which to collect the tickets at the theatre on the night.

Bollywood and its Increasing Popularity Worldwide
Bollywood comprises a small part
of the Indian Cinema. It refers to the Mumbai-based hindi-language film
industry which is the most popular in India. The name 'Bollywood' comes
from the two words 'Bombay' (the former name for Mumbai) and
'Hollywood' (the center for the American Film industry).
Will Nollywood overtake Bollywood?
Nollywood, the name of Nigeria's film industry,
churns out about 2,000 films each year. With revenues of $250 million
per year, it makes less than Hollywood's single biggest movie of the
year. However, Nigeria sells its movies on the street for about $2 a
copy, and distributes its movies all over Africa. So the movies are
widely disseminated and have a cultural influence throughout the
continent.
While Mercy Johnson was terrific in "The Maid", the acting isn't even close to Hollywood standards. Hollywood has developed its act over a period of nearly 100 years, and the industry has mature methods of picking talent, directing, and producing its films. Nollywood spits out a film in two week at a budget of maybe $10,000. After editing the movie for about an afternoon, the producer starts distributing the video disc right away.
