Join us as we open our hearts and indulge in an evening of soulful ghazals by a renowned ghazal artiste Aloke Kumar Sen.The artist is enchanted by the essence of ghazal genre, the sweet and mysterious yet powerful combination of poetry, philosophy and Raga based compositions.
Ghazal, an ancient form of amatory poem and ode that originated from Arabic poetry in the 7th century and spread with the influence of Sufi mystics and ever since evolved throughout the world across languages and empires.
