Umera Ahmed was born on 10th December 1976 and little did the people around her know that this girl will grow up to be one of the most famous and well-respected authors of her time. Earning so much fame at this age is not easy but it came very easily to Umera Ahmed to whom writing comes naturally. The most interesting fact about this gifted writer is that she did her Masters in English literature from Murray College, Sialkot. She really sounds like someone who is an expert at both the languages, now how many people do we know who do their Masters in English and write such masterpieces in Urdu language.
Umera Ahmed’s first writing Zindagi Gulzar Hai was mostly an experiment than anything else; something she wrote to test her writing skills. She sent her story to be published in a monthly digest with very little hope that it would be considered. To her surprise the story was not just accepted but also turned out t be a mega hit and later she compiled it into a novel and we are all watching it go on air as a drama now. Umera Ahmed has written sixteen books till date and has many devoted fans.
Those people who do not read books are also well acquainted with Umera Ahmed because many of her novels have gone on air as plays and she has also written scripts especially for dramas. There is always a hidden message, social or spiritual in Umera Ahmed’s writing and her characters always win people over. Although, Umera Ahmed has given us many praise worthy dramas but there are a few which will be remembered forever like Wujood-e-Laraib, Doraha, Meri Zaat Zar-e-Benishan, Qaid-e-tanhai, Maat, Durr-e-Shehwar and Shehr-e-Zaat. Umera Ahmed has been awarded many times for her great plays and we wish her a lot more success in the future too.
Umera ahmed’s novel Peer-e-Kamil won her great acclaim and we expect our favorite author to come up with many other such masterpieces in the future too. The team of reviewit wishes Umera Ahmed a very Happy Birthday and loads of success for her future projects.
Saud.
