‘Krishn Kanhaiya’ written by Hafeez Jalandhari in pre-Partition India is a testimony to the syncretism and shared culture that the people of the Indian subcontinent have inherited.

Nautanki is like a coalition government. It’s democracy itself- a coalition of all kinds of people. When we do things as a community we learn that the other person is not an alien.

From hosting inter-faith communities and events, to hoisting the Tricolor at the Dargah to installing the Preamble at the premises, a first for any place of worship in India, Mahim Dargah is doing its bit as a platform to promote peace and reshape India into the India of the dreams of our founding fathers. And so is the rest of the country. Isn’t what we want, really that kind of a country?
