Amrita Pritam has closely observed the life of a Punjabi woman and revealed artistically the miseries, thoughts, role, problems, character of a women living and facing life and its different shades in the rural area of Punjab. Her famous poem written under the title “Aj Aakhan Waris Shah Noo” is voice of a Punjabi woman. Her poetry also reflects different cultural, social and other colors of Punjab. The values, habits, culture, atmosphere, relationships and psyche of people living in Punjab are obviously different from other regions of Indo Pak.
