If your heart beats to the dhol beat and the sultry call of South Asia sparks your spirit, then the ROM is the place for you to be on Friday, April 29, 2005 for the regal revival of the second annual Raj to Aaj.

Friends of South Asia (FSA) invite you to embark once again on a journey through ancient traditions and explore modern expression from the courtly cultures of the maharajahs to today's contemporary creative landscape. Experience the spicy mixture of music, dance, photography, fashion and literature from India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka to Nepal and Bangladesh.

Thousands took the journey to South Asia via the ROM last year. Come see what the ‘tamasha’ is all about!
