The name of Shahryar is familiar to many due to the immense popularity of his songs for Hindi films. He has also found deep appreciation with connoisseurs of Urdu poetry, having built a formidable reputation over the past forty years as a voice that is both compelling and insightful. Through the Closed Doorway is a collection of Shahryar’s nazms: a collection that is unabashedly personal, one that evokes the tremulous wonder of dreams.
Shahryar has published four volumes of poetry: , Isme-Aazam, Saatvan dar, Hijr Ke Mausam, Khwab Ka Dar Band Hai and Neend Ki Kirchein. He has also bridged the Urdu-Hindi divide by publishing five collections in the Devanagiri script. His latest collection, Haasil-e-Sair-e-Jahan, is an omnibus edition of his previous collections. He retired as professor of the department of Urdu from the Aligarh Muslim University in 1996.ISBN - 9788129104588
