Poetic Obituaries: [Hassan Dars'] marriage to fellow poet

Amar Mahboob served to enhance his eminence among admirers, as the couple earned a great deal of respect in Sindh through their different styles of writing.

During his early years, the struggle for democracy had inspired young artists, singers journalists, poets as well as writers to use their respective instruments to advocate social change across the country. This was a time when Sindhi poetry flourished, as hundreds of books on poetry and short stories were published, which focused on the resistance of the masses.

Following the trend, Hassan too wrote several long poems which were translated later in Urdu and English.
