المعنى
The creative act of writing poetry.
خلفية ثقافية
Poetry is often recited in 'Kavi Sammelans' where poets from all over the state gather. Writing a poem for such an event is a matter of great pride. The tradition of writing 'Abhangs' (devotional poetry) is central to Marathi identity. Many people still write poetry in this traditional meter. Instagram and Facebook have seen a surge in 'Choti Kavita' (Short poems/micro-poetry), making 'Kavita lihine' a trendy hobby again. Lyricists are highly respected in the Marathi film industry, and the process of 'writing a song' is often referred to as 'Kavita lihine' in the initial creative phase.
