Written by Ajoka’s executive director Shahid Nadeem, the play depicted the imaginative confrontation between famous Sufi saint Bulleh Shah and Banda Singh Bahadur, who both responded to the tyranny of the rulers of their era with their respective ideologies. The play was a strong plea for love and peace and an indictment against intolerance, violence and hatred. Actors Usman Raj, Qaiser khan, Nayab Faiza and Sibt-e-Hasan performed their roles efficiently in the play.
The programme was attended by leading figures from different religions, including provincial minister for human rights and minority Ijaz Alam, Justice Nasira Javed Iqbal, Badshahi Mosque Khateeb Abdul Khabeer Azad, director CSJ Peter Jacob and prominent personalities from Sikh Community as well
