'Zangoora - The Gypsy Prince', styled on the lines of an expensive Bollywood film, was unveiled way back in 2010 and I remember Viraf Sarkari of Wizcraft, the man behind 'Kingdom Of Dreams', which stages 'Zangoora', had explained to me in detail the concept and how it would prove to be a breakthrough for entertainment-seeking spectators in Gurgaon [North India]. Although words cannot do justice to the money and efforts that Viraf and his efficient team have invested in this show, I wish to state that 'Zangoora'...
