Saba Naheed Arshad was not a celebrity. She was not even famous. But she was a trailblazer in her student days and played a significant role in enriching the literary and theatre activities in the Aligarh of the 1970s. She became the first woman secretary of the Aligarh Muslim University Drama Club. In conversation with Pervaiz Alam, Saba shared memories of her time at the university and people who played a part in her growing up. 

After a 10-year, off-and-on battle with cancer, Saba passed away on 29 April, 2024, in Dubai. 

This interview was recorded in several sessions during 2020- 2021.
