“Joyous to have been part of releasing ‘Khirman’, a 5 volume set of poetry by my great-grandfather Muztar Khairabadi.

“Gratitude to all guests in attendance at the ‘Khirman’ book launch and in particular to our Respected Vice President.

Shri Hamid Ansari,” Farhan posted on Twitter.

The 41-year-old “Dil Dhadakne Do” actor’s father Javed had said recently that during this process of his research he discovered that the Ghazal “Na kisi ki ankh ka noor hu, naa kisi ke dil ka qaraar hu” was Muztar’s creation.
