Culture & Crafts of Sindh

In order to maintain meaningful interaction with the visitors of this website (Indus-Crafts.com), we, the support team of Indus Crafts, decided to regularly blog on this website to introduce the beautiful handicrafts of Sindh (Pakistan) and to provide a different perspective on the rich cultural heritage of Sindh.

In order to break the ice, we are sharing a video of a commercial Sindhi song which comprehensively portrays the colors of rich culture of Sindh. People of Sindh are historically known for their heart-felt hospitality and simple lifestyle.  Ajrak and Sindhi Topi are the traditional gifts with which the guests are honored all over Sindh. 

This commercial song was on aired on Pakistan's national television (PTV) in 2001 and became an instant hit. It beautifully depicted the rich cultural heritage of Sindh and amazing hospitality of Sindhi people. This video shows the importance of Ajrak (traditional shawl), Sindhi Topi (traditional cap) and Rilli (traditional quilts & bedthrows) in the lives of Sindhi people.
