    First of all my sincere thanks to Daijiworld for reporting ” Tanzeem hum Hindustani Ek Shaam Mastani Ghazal Series Enthral Music Lovers". I am also one of the attendees. The Tanzeem Hum Hindustani has been doing alike cultural program successfully. In fact the Tanzeem has organized all the previous program from Riyadh Ist. But this time they forget this beautiful capital city and it in the last moment just like a consolation prize winner baby. Yes, the program was held on 4th December the Friday night knowing that the next day is a working day for the attendees. I think most of the attendees have same feelings what Mr. Shamim Khan wrote in his comments. I apologize to Mr. Shamim Khan that while commenting he has taken one of the important points of the program very lightly. It is about the Anchoring of the program. The report says that the program was anchored by Imtiaz Ahsan and Mirza Azmath Baig. It totally unjustified if I will not correct it. I and all the other attendees have seen that this program was anchored by one very handsome voiced personality Mr. Javeed Ali. I think the Tanzeem reporter must correct the report. Thank you.

    I had an opportunity to attend the events in Dammam and Riyadh. Both programmes were good. Hearty congradulations to Mr. Mohammed Qaiser and his team. Nevertheless, as a close friend of Mr. Qaiser, I think I have the right not only to appreciate but to pin point the shortcomings also.

    The Riyadh program was marred by the bad music system and moreover the artist (Khan Ather) could not really perform well as he was very tired from the previous evening's program in Jeddah. Therefore, I suggest that the artists should be given a break of at least 48 hours between programs. On the other hand, Habeeb Qaudeer was very good. In fact, single handedly, he carried the program in Riyadh. Otherwise, I am afraid, it could have been a flop show.
