Even as tensions continue to simmer between New Delhi and Islamabad, Indian and Pakistani-Americans have come together to stage a play at the Kennedy Center to show that they can interact without the hang-ups of their respective countries.
The Phoenix Rising Media Group, based in Woodbridge, Virginia, which is staging the play at the Kennedy Centre on August 14 and 15, said, it was to 'remember millions of Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs who were killed or displaced by British India's 1947 Partition', and to 'commemorate the recent demise of Habib Tanvir Sahib who first brought the play into limelight amid rave reviews in 1992'.
