Around K-Town: A roundup of what’s happening in Karachi this weekend

KARACHI: This weekend has a bunch of interesting things in store for us. Check out all the fun events happening in Karachi!

1. Pakistani folk artists film screening

Filmmaker Jawad Sharif in his film called Indus Blues explores the fading art of folk music in Pakistan and how artists/musicians are struggling to keep it alive and relevant. With focus on the diverse cultures around Indus that has over 70 spoken languages and deep roots going back centuries, this film sounds both intriguing and connecting to our country’s extensive traditions and culture. The film will be screened at Capri Cinema on M.A. Jinnah Road.

Date and Time: Sunday, September 15 | 11 am – 1 pm
