PRESENTED BY MOHAMMAD MUNEER NAZIR
A special episode from the stunning Mehrangarh Fort, in association with JodhpurRIFF featuring Kashmiri folk artist Noor Mohammad and his group, performing 'HA JANE AZEEZO', a Sufi Kalam. The opening lines literally translated means "O you who is close to me like my life".
Nearly two years back, a mobile video of Noor Mohammad Shah singing traditional Kashmiri songs on a roadside while playing ‘rabab’ was uploaded on YouTube. Shah, a folk singer, then became Valley’s own YouTube sensation by registering nearly 1.75 lakh views on his video.
Later, Shah’s other videos singing at home and roadsides went viral on social networking websites. Despite his fame and a few recordings for television and radio as part of a troupe, Shah continues to sing door to door to eke out a living.
