My Soul Flower

Opinions “Lavlin is not only a sensitive poet but also an exceptionally fine person — I have no doubt about it. Her poetry is sensitive, poignant, heart-rending and touching.” -Mr. Arif Mohd. Khan “Lavlin is a child of the muse - a poet and an intensely poetic presence. Her short, often three four line poems say more than die volumes by others. - Dr. Sunita Jain “Poetic fables of Lavlin had a great many things to say and I am sure all of you will share with me the wonderful feeling of depth, of emotions and above all the great stirring of purity her work evoked in us.” - Mr. Gopal Subramaniam “Lavlin is a personality with a rare combination of charm, grace, sensitivity, ability and humility.” - Air. D. R. Kaarthikeyan “I fall short of words in praising your talent and your ability to portray reality through your films, specially the issues pertaining to women and their problems...I am impressed with your sensitive poetry...I appreciate your concern towards social problems and the effective use of cinema as a medium to highlight the plight of those affected by it. May your path be blessed and may you continue to shine like a bright star. May no one cast an evil eye on you, Lavlin.” - Mrs. Gursharan Kaur Lavlin is a combination of three things! She believes in creation of better society, preservation of the best value system and in destruction of the evil ways of it.” - Mr. Raja Reddy “Lavlin is a scholar of high merit and has contributed a great deal. I am proud of Lavlin. I have always felt proud of how she has evolved.” - Mr. I. K. Gujral “Lavlin has always inspired me with her creativity. Poetry flows not only through her pen but also through her photographs. As an I&B minister, I have watched many films but have never seen a film as good as ‘Jeet’. May her creativity continue to flourish in different art forms.” - Mr. Vasant Sathe “One wonders how Lavlin finds moments to transform perceptions into golden poetry with the touch of an alchemist. In an uncanny blend, her poetry unmistakably bears the impress of dynamic theatre, the visual candour of photography and the auditory grace of music. A poet once said that each one of us was born with a bird in our hearts. So many of us maul and maim, stifle and suffocate this bird. But if you turn to Lavlin’s poems you shall hear, loud and clear, this bird still singing from the arterial branches of her heart.” - Dr. Manmohan Singh “I have been a guide to many PhD students but have never had anyone as talented, observant and analytical as Lavlin. I have told her to do her Post Doctorate from Cambridge University.” - Prof. Kuleshov “Purity is Lavlin’s space, spontaneity her time, and creativity her being. She is naturally curious, abundantly vibrant and silently mature. She reproduces every emotion, every experience like a mirror. Lavlin is one of those rare children of nature who do not need to exert themselves; they are alert and pure beings without any ambitions and without any axes to grind.” - Mr. Raghu Rai
