Directed by Eugenio Navarro, the performance by Nestor Navarro Salvany depicted the story of colourful Pipa as he reminds one and all the meaning of true love. The topsy-turvy musical filled comedy showswhat happens when you give love a chance, even if it happens in an unconventional way.

Sorab Arora, Director, Culture Affairs Deparment, and Rajnish Malhi welcomed the chief guest, Nazuk Kumar, SDM, and expressed gratitude to the performers and the audience. — OC

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
