was this poem called ?

A.

Thandkala

B.

Basant

C.

Qutub Mushteri

D.

Kulliyat

Correct option is C

The correct answer is (C) Qutub Mushteri

Explanation:

  • Qutub Mushteri is a famous Deccani Urdu masnavi (narrative poem) written by Mulla Wajahi in 1609.
  • It depicts the allegorical love story of Mohammad Quli Qutb Shah, the fifth ruler of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, and his beloved Bhagmati (Mushteri).
  • Wajahi was the court poet of Mohammad Quli Qutb Shah and is considered a pioneer of Deccani literature.
  • The poem is significant for its cultural value and for providing insights into the early development of the Urdu language in the Deccan region.
Information Booster:
  • Mulla Wajahi also wrote 'Sab Ras', which is considered the first prose book in the Urdu language.
  • Mohammad Quli Qutb Shah was the founder of the city of Hyderabad.
  • The Qutb Shahi dynasty ruled from Golconda and later Hyderabad.
Additional Knowledge:
  • Thandkala – Not a recognized literary work associated with Wajahi.
  • Basant – Refers to a festival or a seasonal theme, not this specific historical poem.
  • Kulliyat – This is a general term referring to a collection of poems by a single author; specifically, the 'Kulliyat-e-Quli Qutb Shah' refers to the king's own poetic collection.
So the correct answer is (c)
