Took the stage at a beautiful Indo- Pak bethak BETHAK HOUSE on the night ot 14th August (Pakistani Independence Day) bleeding into the midnight into the early hours of 15th August (Indian Independence Day) ..
Decided to sport is beautiful asharfi replica sherwani buttons by Mir The Label with ‘Charminar’, to add a subtle Hyderabad representation, and inspire conversations about the State and the state of Hyderabad in 1947 and how it’s culture has perpetually misrepresented, robbed and exploited!
Mecca masjid mein muqaddas pather rakhtey hai,
Budha ko bhi ba hifazat e hussain sagar rakhtey hai,
Hussain Shah wali aur bargah e Bandanawaz,
Hum silsilon ki tehzeeb ko yun aam rakhtey hai,
Sukhanwar, karigar, aur har hunarbaaz,
Har fann mein ooncha muqaam rakhtey hai,
Ek aal’a saqafat e nasl ki aal hai hum,
Turki shehzadion ka susraal hai hum,
Mulk e Hindustan mein adab ki dhadkan hai hum,
Da’kkan hai hum! Da’kkan hai hum !
