Renowned Pashto film and drama artist, Jehangir Khan AKA Jani has said that opening of Nishtar Hall for cultural activities during Eidul Azha was a commendable step by the provincial government that would definitely promote our soft image and culture.

Talking to media persons here Thursday, he urged upon government authorities to provide the facility of Nishtar Hall to artists and promoters on easy terms and payment in order to promote cultural activities, music and theatre.

He said the move will also help re-establish the business of the artist’s community which is passing through difficult times owing to lack of artesian opportunities and activities.

Jehangir Khan told the media that he will perform at Nishtar Hall along with other senior artists including Saeed Rehman Sheeno, Zardad Bulbul, Sardar Mareekhi, Rehmat Elahi and renowned Pashto vocalists Khalid Malik, Wisal Khayal, Salma Naz, Gul Sanga and others.
