She has openly acknowledged her love for Sahir in interviews and her books. His most famous love affair, however, was with Amrita Pritam, who became his most ardent fan. A friend of his recalls Sahir telling him "Bombay needs me!". After a couple of months in Delhi, he moved to and settled in Bombay. So, in 1949, Sahir fled from Lahore to Delhi. However, inflammatory writings (communist views and ideology) in Savera resulted in the issuing of a warrant for his arrest by the Government of Pakistan. He then became a member of the Progressive Writers' Association. After his work was published, he began editing four Urdu magazines, Adab-e-Lateef, Shahkaar, Prithlari, and Savera these magazines became very successful. He then began searching for a publisher and, after two years, he found one in 1945. Here, he completed the writing of his first Urdu work, Talkhiyaan (Bitterness). In 1943, after being expelled from college, Sahir settled in Lahore. They met after the partition of India, when she arrived in Delhi from Lahore in 1949. About his expulsion, some accounts erroneously mention Amrita Pritam as the girl, but she never lived in Ludhiana. He was famously expelled from the college within the year 'for sitting in the Principal's lawn with a female class-mate'. He was quite popular for his ghazals and nazms in the college. Upon matriculation, he joined the Satish Chander Dhawan Government College For Boys, Ludhiana. Sahir studied at and graduated from Khalsa High School in Ludhiana.
The house where Sahir was born, a red sand-stone haveli, stands in Karimpura, a Muslim neighborhood of Ludhiana, with a small plaque announcing its importance upon the arched mughal darwaaza - the only effort by the city to remember him. His parents' divorce brought him and his mother face to face with poverty and struggle in life. Fear and financial deprivation surrounded the formative years of this young man. Sahir's mother then found friends who kept a close watch on him and didn't let him out of sight. He threatened to make sure Sahir did not live with his mother very long, even if that meant taking the child's life. Sahir's father then sued his mother for child custody but lost. At that time, his mother decided to take the bold step of leaving her husband, forfeiting all claims to the financial assets. In 1934, when he was thirteen years old, his father married for the second time. Sahir's parents had a very loose and estranged relationship. Early Life Sahir Ludhianvi was born into the wealthy family of a Muslim Syed as Abdul Hayee on 8 March 1921 in Ludhiana, Punjab in India. He won the Filmfare Award twice, in 19, and in 1971 was awarded the Padma Shri. Sahir Ludhianvi (Urdu: ساحر لدھیانوی Devanagari: साहिर लुधियानवी) was a popular Urdu poet and Hindi lyricist and songwriter.
