This year Jahan-e-Khusrau, in association with the Government of Rajasthan's Ministry of Tourism, Art and Culture offered a program of extraordinary diversity in the charming city of Jaipur on 27th and 28th October 2012, 6:30 pm.

Under the dynamic vision of Smt Bina Kak, Jaipur has become a city of cultural events and festivals, Jahan-e-Khusrau continued to reflect an art form that celebrates the rich synergistic traditions of the sub artists performing this year at Jahan-e-Khusrau Jaipur, were - Abida Parveen (Pakistan), Whirling Dervishes (Turkey), Shafaqat Ali Khan (Pakistan), Zia Nath (Indian modern dancer).

Each year Jahan-e-Khusrau presents rare lyrics of Sufi mystics in an innovative form.
