About the author

Shiv Kumar 'Batalvi' (Punjabi: ਸ਼ਿਵ ਕੁਮਾਰ ਬਟਾਲਵੀ) was a well-known Punjabi language poet. He was most famous for his romantic poetry which was noted for its heightened passion, pathos, separation and lovers' agony. He became the youngest recipient of the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1967 for his epic verse play based on the ancient legend of Puran Bhagat, Luna (1965), now considered a masterpiece in modern Punjabi literature. With this work, he also created the modern Punjabi genre of kiss.

Today, he is counted amongst the stalwarts of modern Punjabi poetry, like Mohan Singh and Amrita Pritam, all of whom are popular on both sides of India-Pakistan border.
