Farrokhzad, like many intellectuals and artists, found himself in conflict with the regime’s authoritarian nature. His progressive views on cultural freedom and social justice clashed with the government’s policies, which aimed to suppress dissent. Farrokhzad’s public stance against political repression made him a target of government scrutiny, but he continued to express his views through his music, poetry, and television programs. His defiance was part of a broader cultural movement that sought to preserve rich artistic heritage while challenging the political constraints imposed by the Shah’s regime.
