Jashn-e-Awadh is an Indian musical set in the golden era of Awadh, tracing the life of its last Nawab, Wajid Ali Shah — a ruler celebrated for his patronage of the arts, poetry, and Kathak dance.
The show transports audiences to the fabled city of Lucknow, a world of nazakat and nafasat (elegance and refinement), where nawabs held court amid music, verse, and dance, and where every gesture carried centuries of tradition.
Through soul-stirring live music, evocative choreography, and vivid storytelling, the show weaves together the grandeur of the Nawabi courts, the splendour of Awadhi culture, and the timeless charm of a bygone Lucknow — bringing history alive on stage for a new generation.
This Diwali season, Malhaar presents its most spectacular staging yet, featuring 50+ artistes on an unforgettable evening at Rajmahal Theatre.
