Rahul Dutta has been following Urdu and Hindi poetry for a couple of years now. He reads and listens to whatever good stuff he can get his hands on. To understand the complexity of Hindi and Urdu language, he's been following Ahmed Faraz, Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Javed Akhtar and Harivansh Rai Bachchan in addition to other maestros of the field. He writes in Hindustani and mostly in couplets apart from the poems that he's written and performed.
