Khooghi (Dove in Pahari) is a beautiful sufi poem from the Saif ul Malook written in 1863 by Mian Muhammad Bakhsh. Retold in English and Pahari, the story is brought to life in a toy theatre with over 30 funny and fabulous puppet characters. Khooghi is a story of Hope & Faith in the face of adversity.
Arrive early and hang around afterwards for fun crafting activities, just as you would expect in Khushi Festival’s joyful and inclusive approach.
