In today’s episode I talk to two guest on why they moved back to Kashmir after having studied and worked outside of Kashmir for quite a few years? What was the pull, what made them stay, where do they derive their resilience from and what are their next plans.

In today's episode we bring to you our featured music by two very talented brothers from South Kashmir who make music from their home. Numan baba and Furqan Baba, mostly make original songs or work in collaborations with local artists and independently released an album titled Soantkaal. This album contains their original songs with lyrics from either themselves or renowned Kashmiri poets and is available on major platforms like spotify, apple music, Jio saavan etc. Today they sing Hoshmatiye for us, written by the famous poet Rasul Mir.
