With live renditions of 14 songs in languages including Kashmiri, Urdu, Farsi and Punjabi and narratives in English and Hindi, Sounds of the Sufis is an act that sounds unique even before we begin our chat with its performers. With the help of research and interaction with scholars, Anuraag Dhoundeyal, Priyanka Patel and Karan Chitra Deshmukh have explored the essence of Sufism by telling their stories and singing tunes that have been written and performed by Sufi saints over time. Through poetry, songs and storytelling, Sounds of the Sufis (SOTS) touches upon the lives and messages of 12 mystics including Amir Khusrau, Rumi, Kabir and Meera.
