His fine tuned intonation in speech, wide reading and a quest for learning had earned him fame while at school. After listening to Bukhari's recital of a poem at a school function, the British Chief Commissioner of NWFP, Sir George R. Caple, remarked, "It is my desire to have command on Pushto as good as young Ahmed Shah has on English."
