Ms. Fatima Suraiyya Hameedi Khatoon was born in 1930, near “Panj Bibi Mountain”, in Karnatak, Hyderabad Deccan, British India. She migrated to Pakistan soon after independence, along with her family.
Affectionately known as “Bajiya” (Elder Sister) all over the world, she is an amazing lady. Her total education took place inside her home, and she was tutored by her grand maternal uncle Nawab Nisar Ahmed Khan, Bahadur Yar Jang. This title was given to him by the Emir of Deccan, an independent state up to 1948. Later it was forcibly taken over by Indian armed personnel, dethroning its Emirs.
Bajiya and her brothers and sisters were 10 in numbers. For more details about them, watch the program and listen to Bajiya.
Fatima Suraiyya Bajiya, has won over 900 awards. She is most delighted to have received the award from Emperor of Japan, for her assistance in translating Japanese poetry in to Urdu. She is also a recipient of Pakistani Pride of Performance Award.
Bajiya has been a prolific writer. She made her inroads in to the realm of literature when she was still in her sweet sixteenth year of age. She wrote an Urdu Novel, titled “Muslim Samaaj” (Muslim Society). Justuju Media is trying to obtain it for you, to publish it on the internet in near future.
Bajiya is well known for her Urdu plays (dramas) that have been turned in to Television Serials mostly by PTV from early 1960s, the days of infancy of Television in Pakistan. She has written plays for stage, and Radio too. She represents the old guard of Pakistani morals, and is not satisfied with the cultural representation of Pakistan by the new age media. She believes and suggests that a writer should always give prominence to goodness in the society.
Her total literary works also remain to be collected, preserved, and processed in to a single volume. Among others, some of her better known plays are: 1- Shama, Afshaan, Urusa, Zeenat, Anaa, Agaahi, Aab Geenay, Baabar, Tareekh wa Tamseel, Ghar aik Nagar, Farz aik Qarz, Phool Rahi Sarson, Tasveer e Kaainaat, Asaavari, and her first long play Mehmaan.
