Basant Festival Happening Again in Pakistan Ever

We hope that people also remember that they used to get 1 Tawa on 1 liter of Petrol filled in their vehicles. Missing Basant as to how we wrestled with a kite string – illegally – at one impromptu roof party and listened to Basant song K Dil Hua Bo Kata by Fariha Pervez on repeat. Kites colored red, yellow, and blue, soaring above what a sight it was. The festival exemplified the fun-loving yet traditional spirit of the country’s most liberal city, while its emergence two decades back as a major tourist and commercial event showed Pakistan’s economy booming.

Today, the overseas Pakistanis of Sweden, Germany, KSA, and Canada cherish this sport to the fullest: Watch my tiktok video as a proof
