How is that a PhD in Urdu Poetry apparently could be the most marketable PhD degree? Well, it may be a sheer coincidence that one of the most sought after lyricists currently in Bollywood holds a PhD! n that too in the uber-romantic language, Urdu!
see for yourself the Filmography of lyricist Irshad Kamil... think of the most popular songs from past 5-7 years. You name it, and its on this guy's list! Rockstar, Ashiqui 2, Ranjhanaa, Love Aaj Kal, even Jab We Met! Yes indeed Mohit Chauhan and Arijit Singh could be providing the melodies to the ballads, and due credit to all the composers too. But isn't this common link (read: the lyricist) a vital force behind all those moving words?
Whoever said that PhD degrees are 'useless' needs to at least check this guy out! Bolti Bund, Kalam Chaalu! :D
