Ms: Sadia Dehlvi has described this festival in a Pakistani weekly and has thus aroused the interest of Urdu lovers. I have read other writings about the Dastangos but never had an opportunity to attend a performance as the art went into limbo after Mir Baqir Ali. Like thousands of Urdu knowing South Asians I also am abroad and since reading about the festival wondered if we will get an opportunity to watch this revival of the art on the YouTube or on a CD like the Bollywood movies or the Pakistani TV dramas.
The Finale today at 6.30 pm at the Little Theatre, NCPA, Mumbai.
