Kabir was a 15th century mystic poet of north India who defied the boundaries between Hindu and Muslim. He had a Muslim name and upbringing, but his poetry repeatedly invokes the widely revered Hindu name for God – Ram. Who is Kabir’s Ram? This film journeys through song and poem into the politics of religion, and finds a myriad answers on both sides of the hostile border between India and Pakistan.

Qawalli is great and thank you for spreading more of this and keeping it alive. Farid Ayaz & Abu Mohammad Qawalls is one of the greatest qawalls of all time in his dedication to music, they never sold out to commercial terms while making quality music. Farid Ayaz also carries an aura around him and the music he creates. If anyone is interested in getting to more into qawalli they should check out this documentary called "Had Anhad"[0], I'm linking a section where Farid Ayaz is interviewed below(cause I'm such a fanboy ;)
To OP, Great work, for keeping the verbal poetry alive. PEACE
