His father, though, a police officer, was not too keen on his son receiving English education and Majrooh was therefore sent for traditional 'Madrasa education' which led to his obtaining the qualification first of Dars-e-Nizami - a seven year course which concentrated on religious affairs along with proficiency in Arabic and Persian- and then the certificate of ''Alim''. He thereafter joined Lucknow's Takmeel-ut-Tib College of Unani. He was a struggling ''Hakim'' when he happened to recite one of his ghazals at a ''mushaira'' in Sultanpur. The ghazal was a hit with the audience and Majrooh decided to drop his fledgling medical practice and began writing poetry seriously. Soon he was a 'regular' at ''mushairas'' and a "shagird" i.e. disciple of the then top name in Urdu Mushairas viz Jigar Moradabadi.〔〔(Majrooh Sultanpuri Profile ) upperstall.com.〕 While Majrooh is popular as a film lyricist and is widely known in that capacity, be it known that he also created one of the best-known verses of Urdu poetry, Main akela hee chala tha janibe manzil magar, Log saath aate gaye aur carvan banta gaya!
