In memory of Najma Anwar


With a heavy heart, I express my corroboration to the wards of tributes paid to 'hapless' actor Nazma Anwar by Ms. Sara Zaker in the 8 January issue of your daily. There is almost none like her in the present film-TV-stagedom to portray the character of the 'inimitable middle aged woman' who 'was so fit always full of joy and had to accept an unbelievable fait accompli. She was more a woman than an actor. We do not take care of a person who is living around us. We only see him/her from outside, and do not care to see the person from inside. That is the inescapable 'mistake' we commit during our lifetime. Is that what William Shakespeare said in his famous work "Macbeth'?

Thanks to Sara Zaker that she has cautioned us to be a patient listener to our compatriots.
