Surrey-based KVP Entertainers, a leading concert promotions company in the lower mainland, is thrilled to announce the arrival of Cinema On Stage’s "Mughal-e-Azam: The Musical" in Vancouver as part of its North American tour.

"Mughal-e-Azam: The Musical" is a grand spectacle of music, dance, and drama, where romance and royalty meet. The musical, directed by the acclaimed Feroz Abbas Khan and produced by Shapoorji Pallonji, is based on the iconic 1960 film "Mughal-e-Azam," shared Kamal Sharma of KVP Entertainers. “The film took 16 years to bring to life, breaking all records upon its release. Now, seven years after the musical's debut in Mumbai, it is set to captivate North American audiences with its grandeur and artistry,” he added.

The production features hundreds of artists, technicians, and dancers, bringing to life the soul of Indian classical music and Kathak dance. The songs, performed live, are from the original film, adding authenticity and richness to the performance. The addition of English subtitles ensures that a wider audience can enjoy the performance, transcending language barriers.
