An exclusive interview with Mr. Dinesh Gupta, author of a Hindi poetry book- "Meri Aankhon Me Muhabbat Ke
Manzar Hai”
1.) Hello Dinesh sir, what is your feeling after
being an author/poet now? What’s your perspective about life now after
achieving a rare flagship in your life?
I started writing long back but to become published
Author now is amazing feeling even its difficult to describe in words. I
written 1 poem on the day I got first copy of my book in hand:
Aaj Pehli Baar Mere Shabd Syahi Men Dhale
Hain..................
Jaise Kisi Pita Ke Bacche Pehli Baar Apne Pairo Par Chale Hain!
I am focusing now to convert my Passion into
Profession and become Full Time Writer/Poet.
2.) When you saw your first book for sale on
E-commerce websites and placed at a bookstore for the first time, what kind of
thoughts dominated your mind?
I was eagerly waiting to know Readers Feedback as
first Thought.
3.) Before we head towards discussing your book,
we would like to know in spite of being an author, what do you exactly do? And
do you wish to be in the job some day or come into full-time writing?
Well I am Software Engineer by Profession and
started writing by Interest but now a days Poetry is passion for me.
When People asked me Poet with Engineer is Rare,
How this became possible, I can just say: “Engineering is my Profession but
Poetry is my Passion.” . Shabd Meri
Ragon Men Khoon Bankar Daudte Hain aur Kavita Meri Nason Men Behti hai
Yes I am trying to move in full-time writing.
4.) What is your book all about? And from where
did this idea occur to you?
My Book “Meri Aankhon Me Muhabbt Ke Manzar
Hai” is Hindi Poetry collection contains Poetry, Songs, and Shayri&Few
Articles. Although name says its Pure romantic book but its contains Poems on variety
of Topics for all age like:
Muhabbat, Desh-Prem, Dreams, Corruption,
Imbalance in Society, Terrirosm
When I started Writing there was no such plan to
get published but I got Amazing Response from Readers for My Poetry Published
in Magazines, Online Portals & Facebook & I thought it’s good to start now
my carrier as Poet with my own book.
5.) How much long did it take to write this
poetry book from the moment you started developing the poems to start writing
it till completing it finally with editing and all?
I did not plan for Book and as soon as I found I
have good collection of Poetry I assembled them in Book. It took another 1 Year
to find Publisher and get published after I got idea.
6.) Indian Publishing is too hard to deal with
was it easy for you to get a Publisher or did u wait for a long time to get
your work published?
It was tough to get attention of Publisher and I
send my scripts to almost all reputed publisher. I got no Response from most of
them and negative from few. Somehow Diamond accepted it.Even after It took 1
Year to get book printed. I was losing hope at that time and I written some
lines.
Jane Kab
Se Jal Rahi Hai Seene Men Ek Aag
Shabd
Mere Syahi Men Dubne Ko Baitab…
Ab To Baras
Jaao Ae Bundon Jam Ke Jaraa …….
Isse
Pehle Ki Main Khud Me Jalkar Ho Jaun Raakh
7.) What are the Promotional strategies that you
and your publisher have applied to promote/market your latest book?
Diamond being Traditional Publisher Distributed
Book in His Distribution Netwrok.I also did some Promotion on Online Sites,
Blogs, News Papers, Reviews and Facebook.
8.) What exactly is your target from your Books-
1. Getting most copies sold out, 2. Getting the love of readers or 3. You just
wrote it because you wanted to write a book once in your life, hence you have
no targets?
For Me Selling is less important then Love from
Readers but as I said Poetry is not hobby or Interest for me and its Passion. I
want to enter fully in Writing and for that I need to increase my Reach to
Readers which is only possible through selling as this is business world. “Agar
Keemat Tay Nahi Hogi to Aapki Bhavnayen bhi Logon Tak Nahin Pahunchegi.
9.) By when are you coming up with your next
book? And if possible, do give us an idea about what it would be.
Very soon. Its Already in print. This Book
Contains mixed of Article & Poetry. I would say it is collection of Article
Poetry.
10.)In the end, tell us in 5-7 lines, what speech
wills you give if you win a Major Award for the Best Indian Author for your
books?"
What I would say is its
Reward of tremendous effort I am put to touch millions of heart with my words. I
am Poet of Love so I would like to give message to all of my young Readers and
Writers “Read Love, Write Love, Do Fall in Love. Being in Love is amazing
feeling, Just go and experience it.There is no harm in using Writing for
Entertainment butUnderstand your Responsibility as a Writer for Society First.
We have lots of issues and problem in our Country and we need Young, Energetic
blood to overcome those. Be Always with your Nation whatever &wherever
Needed. This Country have lots of Expectations from Youngsters.
Dikha Do DuniyaKoLahoo
Men Hamare Bhi UbaalAata Hai

Aur, Us Aur Tufan Ata Hai………… !
