Niti taylor-new article

Javed Akhtar said in his poetic words...

The moment flows by like molten sapphire

Deep blue silence

No earth below, no sky above

The rustling branches and leaves are saying only you are here

Only me

My breath and my heartbeat

Such depth, such solitude

And me

Only me

I now believe I exist

And one television actress who brims with energy and vivacity is the cute and sexy Niti Taylor. An epitome of absolute beauty, Niti is part of one of the most watched shows on Indian television, in the youth genre, Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan on MTV.

She has a soothing voice of a nightingale and an intoxicating mystic beauty.

For our special and hugely read Irshaad section, the pretty Niti gives us an insight about her take on poetry, romance, Tata Sky's new service Actve Javed Akhtar and a lot more. Read on...

We feel that life without poetry would be incomplete...your thoughts?

You are absolutely right. I can't imagine a life without shero shayaris.

Do you have interest in poetry and shayari?

Yes. I do read romantic poems. It makes my heart warm.

Has anyone written or recited a poem or shayari to profess their love to you?

Many of them (laughs). It's a very sweet gesture.

In this day and age - where people have lost interest in poetry and that kind of romance, how do you stay connected to shayari/poetry?

I think internet helps and also mobile apps.

Who is your favorite shayar or poet?

There are many but in today's time Javed Akhtar and Gulzar are the best.

Did you know that Tata Sky & Javed Akhtar saab have recently launched Actve Javed Akhtar service on Tata Sky to bring back the golden era of poetry? Your comments on it?

Yes, it is a great concept and such shows should be encouraged. Such initiatives are educative and entertaining at the same time.

Poetry is considered as the art of conveying what the heart feels? You express with your heart or mind?

I am a completely hearty' person.

Javed Akhtar is a magician with the pen. Any favourite song or poem of his you remember/like?

I think all his poems and songs are beautiful.

To end, kuch irshaad kijiye...

Jeevan main khushiya ki koi kami nahi hoti..
Bas jeene ka andaz hona chahiye!!

So as Niti says, live life king size and always keep smiling!
