This fierce passion has continued into adulthood with the young poet constantly searching for understanding of humankind, whether across borders or life within.
More than a decade later, his debut collection Life Is Sad And Beautiful entered The Sunday Times Charts upon release, sitting there for two consecutive weeks. The collection sold more than 10,000 copies within the first few months, making him the first British Pakistani Poet to hold such a position.
Life Is Sad And Beautiful has since been adapted in the UK’s Key Stage 3 and 4 National Curriculum.
