Create Form in Zenity using BASH script?

Question

I am trying a BASH script to create a form in zenity.

I tried the one available on official site https://help.gnome.org/users/zenity/stable/forms.html.en but it throws error.

Code and error is as below:

zenity --forms --title="Add Friend" --text="Enter information about your friend." \
  --separator="," --add-entry="First Name" --add-entry="Family Name" \
  --add-entry="Email" --add-calendar="Birthday"

Error:

This option is not available. Please see --help for all possible usages

On analysing I found the error is because of option --forms.

Do let me know If there is any other way to create form in Zenity besides using option --forms
