Similarly, Akram Kanjahi in his presidential address, said that Shuja Shad has diversity; he is a poet of modernity, the problem of the rate of desire is complicated.

He said that often the first love fails because of emotions, and the same is true of the first book because it is written based on enthusiasm. I congratulate Shuja Shad on making the first love successful; Dr Mukhtar Hayat said that reading Shuja Shad shows that he saw and felt life very closely and expressed it wonderfully and effectively in the form of Sharh Arzoo. Zeb Azkar noted that the confidence and creative spirit with which Shuja Shad is engaged in the field of poetry is not the dream of everyone. Commitment is determined, and its attainment heralds the arrival of all languages. Expressing his views, Dr Nuzhat Abbasi said that poetry is a mirror that reflects not only the life and personality of the poet but also the shadows of the times, and the shadows of the society can also be seen.

Afsar Saeed Khan said that many poets came and burned Urdu. According to the old scholars, this world is an idea. We who think radically and significantly cannot find this idea, but we can realize it Shuja Shad has summed up this idea and presented it in the form of Sharh Arzoo. Poet and writer Shuja Shad said that he is very grateful to the President Arts Council Muhammad Ahmad Shah, who made Karachi the cradle of creative and literary activities.

He said that the accusation of poetry and literature is ancient to me. It is my inherited hobby, but I am not a perfect man. He also recited poems from his book. Sultan Ghaznavi said that his wife has a big hand in the success of Shuja Shad. I congratulate her. So it is like an oyster that absorbs the diameter of rain and makes pearls.
