Shikara is the story of resilience in the face of insurmountable odds. It is also the story of pure love that remains unextinguished through 30 years of exile. The intense tale is set during the horrific exodus of Kashmiri Pandits in 1990 and showcases a timeless love story. Debutant stars Aadil Khan (as Shiv) and Sadia (as Shanti) play a newly married Kashmiri Hindu couple who live in Srinagar, in a house they call Shikara. 

Shikara is an attempt to bring to light the plight of Kashmiri Pandits and their insurmountable strength and courage in the face of adversity. Set in the backdrop of Kashmir, watch this historic love story on Sony MAX on 19th July at 12 PM.
