Sukhan

[1] Conceived and directed by National-Award winning Marathi actor Om Bhutkar, the show was first performed on 13 October 2015 to commemorate the 67th birth anniversary of Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

[2] Sukhan is a mehfil (gathering) where performers recite Urdu poetry and render Hindustani classical music pieces, as well as Ghazals & Qawwalis.

Over time, its success led to performances in Mumbai and other cities near Pune, expanding its reach beyond its original audience.

This invitation to a prominent Marathi theater festival showcased the show's ability to bridge linguistic and cultural boundaries.

[16] Unlike Sukhan, which primarily focuses on Urdu literature and Hindustani classical music, Jashn-e-Sukhan embraces diversity in languages and genres.
