Meet Dr Shadab Ahmed the surgeon with an extraordinary poetic precision
Dr Shadab Ahmed is a prominent and acclaimed name in the translation and transliteration of 'Indian, Persian and Ottoman antiquarian manuscripts. An author of more than 10 published books on 'Indian & Persian ethnic prose-poetry', his interpretations and paraphrases are widely read and appreciated in the Indo-Persian scholarly community trans-continentally. Several of his translated verses appear in major digital libraries around the globe and are critically analysed by renowned critics and academicians. His translations blend analytical rigor with extraordinary poetic precision, extrapolating and interfacing complex verses into elaborate enthralling wordplays. His works explore the essence and leitmotif of the celebrated literary compositions from the bygone empires as much as they throw an important light on the socio-political, ethnic and cultural analysis of those eras. The themes of his works are varied and idiosyncratic - selectively compiled, curated, structured and standardised. The passages and verses are carefully chosen and researched, intermixing the associated Occidental and Oriental explications. Be it the entranced turmoiled devotion to the beloved or proscribed suppressed literature illustrating the classified carnalization of the monarchs and sovereigns, it is presented in a lavish linguistic rhymeplay which catches both the incurious and inquisitive eyes. A unique feature of his own composed verses and quatrains lies in the reflection of an altered transitional consciousness, in which the author appears to be subtly invoking God and communicating implicitly. The result is often a quatrain with metaphysical interpretation and perspective. The language used in the translations is standardized American and British English, with unusual words assembling together to develop a beautiful narrative. But that won't be all. Apart from being a successful writer and author, Dr Ahmed is also a professional Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, intrinsically involved in quality assurance programs of several institutions and universities. Based in India, his extra-professional and extra-academic interests goes into real estating, property development and investment management. A bibliophile and passionate reader, he reads whenever his busy schedule permits and is a prudent scholar of Indian & World History, Metaphysical & Aesthetic Philosophy, Abrahamic, Indic & Vedic Religions and Tantric Sciences. Dr Ahmed is also a noted columnist on Indian polity, geopolitics, realpolitik and international affairs. His opinions and editorials appear in various national print media are as well-read and well-liked as his books are. Hailing from North-East India, Dr Ahmed finished his under-graduation from Bihar and post-graduation from Tamil Nadu. He has previously worked in the North East Frontier Railway's, based at NFR Headquarters, Assam. When asked where he sees himself ahead in life, he enigmatically smiles before letting us know that he is looking forward to be an entrepreneur. One challenge at a time, and two ahead for a vision is his mantra to proceed forward in life. He has several academic and non-academic books lined up for publication and release in the coming months. His next book 'The Despicable Musalman' is eagerly awaited, which provides a comprehensive account of the Islamization of India and takes on various egocentric and megalomaniac personalities from the Arabian, Ghurid, Ghaznavid, Turkish, Mongol, Mughal empires and sultanates – whose policies and practices are vital in shaping up Indian polity and administrative structure. We wish him all the best for his academic accomplishments and extra-academic endeavours.

‘Apne chauke ke chakkar…': Pant's stump mic antics will leave you in splits, Gill says ‘Abhi confused hai Jaddu bhai!'
Day 2 of the ongoing first India vs England Test saw Shubman Gill and Co. build on their momentum from Day 1, in Leeds. Rishabh Pant got his seventh Test on in style, but then England fought back as India lost their last seven wickets for only 41 runs. Jasprit Bumrah removed Zak Crawley (4) with a stunning delivery, but then Ollie Pope and Ben Duckett stood their ground, adding 122 runs for the second wicket. The latter fell for 62 and Pope went on to get his ninth Test ton. Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill's stump mic antics will leave you splits.(Instagram) Then, he had Joe Root for support for sometime, before Bumrah struck again for a third time. The last over on Day 2 also saw plenty of drama as Bumrah thought he removed Harry Brook as well, but he overstepped. England reached 209/3 at Stumps, in response to India's 471, and still trail by 262 runs, with seven wickets in the bag. The England innings also saw plenty of entertainment from the stump mic, with vice-captain Rishabh Pant and skipper Shubman Gill hogging the spotlight. In one such instance, a delivery went past Duckett's leg side, and Pant, who was donning the gloves, had to put in a full-stretched dive to prevent leg byes. Reacting to the delivery, an animated Pant quipped, 'Mei bhi khel raha hu bhai! Apne chauke ke chakkar mei, mera chauka mat de dena (Even I am playing brother! To avoid getting hit for six, don't end up sending me for a six!). In another instance, Ravindra Jadeja sent a good delivery, which the batter defended. Reacting to the delivery, Gill screamed, 'Abhi ye pura confused hai Jaddu bhai! Kaunsi seedhi hai, kaunsi udhar ayega uska! Abhi isko kuch pata nhi lag raha! (Now he is totally confused Jaddu bhai (Ravindra Jadeja)! (Which delivery will come straight, which will come there, he doesn't know anything)' Video of Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant's stump mic antics: The ongoing five-match Test series has seen a new generation of Indian cricketers take over the mantle of leadership, with Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma announced their retirements from the format recently. Jadeja, Bumrah, Pant and KL Rahul are the only remaining members from the previous leadership setup.
