Santosh Sivan’s ‘Tahaan’ - is a fable-like journey of the eponymous eight-year-old boy in ravaged Kashmir.

The film is set against the picturesque backdrop of Kashmir and tells the story of a little boy too innocent to comprehend the evil around him- all he wants is his donkey that was sold against his will by his mother to make ends meet.

A Pakistani cultural troupe is slated to present a play in Jammu and Kashmir next week on Baba Bulleh Shah, a 17th century Sufi saint who was revered by both Hindus and Muslims in his time.

The troupe of 20 artistes, comprising qawwals and actors of the Pakistani group Ajok, will give a performance in Jammu on Jan 27 and 28.

Jammu is preparing in a big way to receive the artistes with theatres fully booked.

The group, which has won acclaim for its play “Ek Thee Nani”, is led by two well known Pakistani artistes, Maliha Gauhar and Shahid Nadeem.
