In its launch week, Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar, became the most-viewed Indian series on Netflix, trending in 43 countries. It is the first Indian series to feature a globally acclaimed music album, showcasing India’s rich musical heritage on an international platform. The Royal College of Music Museum exhibition, titled ‘Awaken: Sufi Music and Women of South Asia,’ brings to life the overlooked stories of women’s roles in the male-dominated musical landscape of Sufism. Opened on June 18, the exhibition illuminates the invaluable contributions of Sufi women through a display of items drawn from collections across the world. It reveals the voices, performances, and instruments of Sufi women in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh from the Mughal period to present-day London.
