Anand Gandhi shares a poem for him 'Tab meri aatma sunhari dhoop ban barsegi'

Sushant Singh Rajput and filmmaker Anand Gandhi were the best of friends. The two often had discussions about their upcoming projects.  Gandhi was quite devasted when he lost his friend Sushant. Anand Gandhi recently took to Instagram to address questions put forward by his fans. When a fan asked the filmmaker to share something about Sushant Singh Rajput in Hindi, Anand Gandhi decided to dedicate a poem written by the late Hindi writer and columnist, Sarveshwar Dayal Saxena.

The title of the poem is Fasal, and it speaks about how the good deeds of man are reaped by the world even after he leaves for his heavenly abode. Filmmaker Anand Gandhi seems to like this poem a lot due to which he recited the entire poem in his Instagram story.

Here are some of the lines from the poem:

“Hal ki tarah

Kudaal ki tarah

Pakad bhi lu kalam toh

Phir bhi fasal kaatne nahi milegi hum ko

Hum toh zameen hi tayaar kar payenge

Krantibeej bone kuch birle hi ayenge

Hara- bhaara wahi karenge mere shram ko

Silsila milega aage mere kram ko

Kal jo bhi fasal ugegi, lehlehaigi

Mere na rehne par bhi

Hawa se ithlaigi

Tab meri aatma sunhari dhoop ban barsegi

Jinhone beej boe the

Unhi ke charan parsegi

Kaatenge usse jo phir woh hi usse  boenge

Hum toh kahi dharti ke niche dabbe soenge”

Anand Gandhi seems to have dedicated this poem to Sushant mainly due to the last stanza of the poem. This stanza states that the good deeds of man are reaped by the world even after he departs for his heavenly abode. Here’s what the last stanza of the poem means:

Tomorrow, when I’m no longer there,
the crop will grow and flourish,
ripple in the breeze.
My spirit, a flush of golden sunshine
Will touch the feet
of those who planted the seeds
Those who harvest it will sow more seeds
I shall only sleep buried in the earth underneath.
