Shabana Azmi is said to make her appearance during a special event held under the name of ‘Kaifi and Faiz’ while Muzzafar Ali will attend a session titled ‘Noor Ki Leher’ on 17th November.
Last year, artists from across the border were unable to attend due to the ongoing Indo-Pak tension. However, this year things seem to be going in a positive direction.
Each day of the festival will end on a performance by Tahira Syed, Zia Mohyedin and Tina Sani respectively. All events are free and open for all except for these performances.
