“Gulzarish is the first dream project conceptualized by taking Gulzar Sahab’s fans through a mesmerizing journey of his poetry and film career by music and narration by all local artists,” said Sarnaik along with his art director Sheetal Kulkarni, providing a glimpse into the show by singing a few lines from Gulzar’s popular music including Dil to Bachcha hai ji and lakdi ki kathi, etc.  “We have a mandate to create a platform for local artists, pursue personal passion for music and fundraise for underprivileged children and women.”

“IWINC is proud to bring this first production to Canadians,” say organizers.  “The show is presented very artistically, conveying Gulzar’s many moods and his uniquely distinctive style that continues to entertain and enthrall audiences across many generations.”
