I have grown incredibly fond of Urdunama since discovering it, living as an Indian Woman in America there are so few instances or opportunities to listen to the poetic sing song of Urdu. Since my mother passed in 2022 no other podcast or piece of art permeates my mind more than simply listening to the lovely voice of our esteemed host explain the words and poems to me. I seek her episodes to very week like a long lost friend I am eager to see again.
I have recently started listening Urdunama. I am very impressed with the way it is being written and played. Fabeha Syed appears to be a highly educated and knowledgeable person. How can I send her greetings and gratitude.

Superb show loved it 😍
Urdu poetry made easy to understand with great anecdotes and advice . Fabhia is a great host with a wonder voice and a great understanding of how to express the emotions of the poems but also how to give excitement and love to her own stories . Well written and wonderful.
