So is it that Sufi has sort of made a comeback? Especially after NDTV Imagine's reality show Junoon...
Its not really a comeback. I had also been approached for the same show too, but had to turn it down due to some reasons. But yes it is definitely a great platform for the youth to perform. At the same time, there is a danger that this show must not mislead youth into thinking that Sufi is simply about enmeshing music on guitar tunes amalgamated with tabla. Sufi is beyond all that. One must have a deep passion for this music. Also the reality show must pick up the right people as sometimes, there is a danger of wrong public voting. Also Bulla ki jana which was sung in Junoon and Rabbi’s version is way different from the original. So there's a a problem with killing this music too.
