During the rule of [[Nizam of Hyderabad]], a flood occurred on 28 September 1908) on the [[Musi River (India)|River Musi]]. Hyderabadi was one of the 150 people who saved their lives by hanging on to the branches of a tamarind tree. He later wrote a poem "Qayamat-e-Soghra" (The Minor Doomsday) detailing his experience. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the tragedy, Satyanarayana Danish recited this poem.<ref name="tcn">http://www.twocircles.net/2008sep28/hyderabad_marks_100th_anniversary_great_musi_floods.html</ref><ref name="rediff.com">{{Cite web|url=http://www.rediff.com/news/2008/sep/29hyd.htm|title=Hyderabad observes 100th anniversary of Musi flood}}</ref><br />

==Life==<br />
