Sahar Zaman on Writing Talat Mahmood's Life Story

Sahar Zaman, a journalist, wrote a book about her grand uncle, the famous singer Talat Mahmood.

She traveled all over India to talk about the book and found many interesting stories about his life.

Talat Mahmood was very famous, and people loved his songs so much that they would stop trains just to hear him sing.

Sahar had to do a lot of research because she didn't know much about his professional life.

She even had to leave her job in television news to write the book.

The book has been turned into plays and dance shows, and people still talk about Talat Mahmood's life even though the book came out two years ago.
