"Dekhti aankhon suntay kaano" .. aaj jese Pakistan Tv ke sir se kisi buzurg ka saaya uth gaya. A few faces make us feel as if the time stands still, their presence makes us belief that still we have a connection to our past, they are the reminiscences of timelessness, like moon, sun and fragrances attached to flowers. The legend, the institution, the trendsetter, an era in himself, the poet, the undisputed king of gameshows , the inaugral voice of PTV, Tariq Aziz Sahab was certainly one of them who made us believe that still we have affinity with rapidly blurring hues and fading colours of yesterday. R.i.P Sir!!! Aap jesa koi ab koi nahi aaye ga. "Hum wo syaah bakht hain tariq ke sheher mein .. Kholain dukaan kafan ki to sub merna chhor den". Inna Lillahe Wa Inna Elehe Rajeoon.
