I would like to extend my thanks to my family, friends, people of sopore and all the people who directly or indirectly helped me to create this documentary.
This is all took me two months to create and was my first ever project, a brainchild, on eid-ul-fitar, 2019.
The documentary was scheduled to be released on 5th of august 2019, in the town of sopore, but due to the situation at that time, the same couldn't be completed.

The works such as camera, editing, sound, script, voice over and all are done by me only.

The rabab was recorded at the house of Late Mr. Fayaz Ahmad Patigaroo, Fayaz aale, who very sincerely and lovingly had a hand over me and gave his suggestions which helped to achieve this documentary that shape that it has today.

Although, i have dedicated this documentary to my grandmother, i would also like to dedicate this documentary to Mr. Fayaz Aale, as i loved him deeply.
The script had a lot of help from the book of Mohammad Amin Shakeeb sb.

I sincerely hope that you like this.
