When some couplets written on a piece of paper are making singers famous, here is a story of a Shayar who writes those couplets. From Ghalib to Shiv Kumar Batalvi, poets got more and more famous only after their deaths. Their journeys were speculated by readers, their writings became a part of the school curriculum.
UsTaad is the journey of today’s poet. His name sounded arrogant while his Shayari was painful. He was no hero who had a happy ending. He didn’t preach. He didn’t motivate. Was UsTaad an alter ego, a survival mechanism, a defense mechanism or was he just a today’s poet? He suffered and his family suffered but his pen never stopped.
UsTaad just dared to write it all.

Chetan Mahajan
From being clueless and heartbroken to finding poetry—that’s what defines the author, Chetan Mahajan. He wrote UsTaad—The Journey of a Shayar in a time when poetry is used in day-to-day life, from Instagram posts to Whatsapp status and viral Tik Tok videos. When loneliness was killing him softly, poetry was keeping him alive.
