The story of artists who donate their services for Arbein.
Excerpts from Tasnim's interview with the late Korush Zerei:
🔹 Our analysis is that artists, after witnessing the difficulties, say they will not go next year. And yet, time and time again, I have heard that as soon as they return - even before the month of Muharram ends - they miss the pilgrimage to Arbain. Thus, they prepare themselves with even greater motivation for next year's journey.
🔹 This year marks the seventh edition of this international event along the Erbain pilgrimage route.
🔹 These efforts are so precious and gratifying that after three decades of working in film, theater and television on religious issues, I can say that working for Imam Hussain (AS) and the Prophet's family is challenging - yet all these difficulties bring immense joy. 🔹 Once someone becomes part of this journey, he can no longer let him go; It is beyond their control. Interestingly, none of the artists who performed received or received any payment.
🔹 This is purely a cultural contribution; Basically, everyone contributes in their own way to this goal, and through this artistic effort, we fulfill our cultural obligation.
