Hina Rizvi Haider, an emerging voice in Urdu poetry, hails from the culturally rich city of Lucknow, a historic hub of Urdu literature and tradition. Growing up in an environment steeped in literary influence, with her father associated with the Urdu Academy, Lucknow, and her mother, a lecturer with a PhD in Urdu literature, Hina’s connection to poetry was almost inevitable.

A postgraduate in Political Science, Hina carries forward the poetic legacy of her maternal grandfather, Chaudhary Itrat Husain, ‘Aashiqui,’ a renowned sahib-e-diwan poet. Her work spans a wide array of themes, from love and politics to pressing social issues, reflecting her versatility and depth as a poet.

Hina’s debut poetry collection, ‘Rang-e-Hina,’ showcases her literary prowess and has been well received. She frequently recites her poetry on esteemed platforms like All India Radio and local television and radio channels. Now, as she seeks to broaden her reach, Hina is ready to share her poetic journey with wider audiences on prominent platforms such as Rekhta, continuing her mission to serve and celebrate Urdu literature.
