Toddlers, school-children, college students, working professional, homemakers, parents, elderly enthusiasts came together for this record breaking performance today morning at Parliament Street, something for which they had been performing for the past 21 days.
The entire sequence has been directed by Tarique Nasim Khan, a professional choreographer, who also happens to be an international faculty with the Art of Living and has done immense peace building work in the war-torn gulf countries like Iran, Iraq and Syria.
“I’m on top of the world that so many people made the effort to come here and stand united to celebrate diversity, peace and humanity. It reaffirms the faith that there are a lot of good people in this world,” Tarique said.
