Mohiuddin Nawab

Mohiuddin Nawab (Urdu: محی الدین نواب) (4 September 1930 – 6 February 2016) was a Pakistani novelist, screenwriter, and poet.

He is famous for his popular novel series, "Devta" that was episodically and continuously published in Suspense Digest from February 1977 to January 2010.

Some of his notable stories include Kachra Ghar, Iman Ka Safar, Khali Seep, and Adha Chehra.

After going through a struggling period as a writer, he finally got attention of the Suspense Digest's editor, Maraj Rasool.

His take on life reveals a sharp and critical eye that mercilessly exposes the naked truths of society.

He was quite aware of men's hard nature, women's soft psychology, and duplicity of human society in general and he used this insight in his writings in a unique and exceptional way.

He puts words of social wisdom in the mouths of laypersons like a worried father, a caring mother, a jobless young man, a maiden girl waiting for a marriage proposal, a hardworking laborer, a motor mechanic, a clergyman (molvi), etc.
