"I remember the first time I read Amritaji's poems, I was so mesmerised that I knew I had to do something with these poems and bring them to people, especially the younger audience who might not have had the opportunity to read these priceless poetry. I connect with each and every word she writes very deeply," said Kavita.

"I admire how she was way ahead of her time and fearlessly broke all stereotypes. It is important to revive, share and spread the priceless work of our poets," she added.
