Lahooti Live Sessions at Jamshoro

The beauty of Sindh has always been one of Pi Studio's biggest inspirations as is evident from our travel work. But, when this beauty is combined with the soulful music of Sindh, the result is nothing less than pure magic. We were shooting a wedding in Hyderabad and one of our studio colleagues hooked us up with the charismatic Saif Samejo, who is the vocalist of the acclaimed band "The Sketches".
We had a lovely discussion with him and he invited us to Jamshoro for a live session for musicians who played indigenous instruments of Sindh. The project is called "Lahooti Live Sessions". When we reached Jamshoro, we were invited to Saif's rooftop where the event was arranged. The lovely Jamshoro breeze coupled with the soul sitrring music gave us hope that Saif's efforts will revive art in Sindh and people will come to appreciate and become aware of our roots.

Moreover, a lovely dinner was also organized by Saif. Pi Studio's perceptions about the art of Sindh was drastically increased thanks to this effort and we appreciate Pakistan's diversity even further now.
