A Unique form of calligraphic art[1] created by a Pakistani artist Dr. Syed Mohammed Anwer to promote peace in the South-Asian region called Samrup Rachna. It is the first of its kind in which two scripts of the same language i.e. Hindi-Urdu are used in unison with each other. Samrup Rachna meaning congruent or similar designs sets an unconventional and unique precedent in this art form. It is done in such a way that a picture of the meaning of the written word is formed. The images on the canvas take form through language yet they are accorded meaning by deep rooted cultural and social traditions. Hindi and Urdu is one language when spoken but written in two different scripts, making it the only major language of the world with this characteristic. The purpose of this calligraphic art work is to promote peace and harmony in the region by highlighting this aspect of our shared language which is one of the major common denominator between India and Pakistan.
