Over 100,000 people attended the annual Three day Karachi

Over 100,000 people attended the annual Three day Karachi Literature festival organized by The Oxford University Press for the sixth time this weekend. Poets, writers and journalists were flown in from all over the world to take part in panel discussions ranging from wide variety of topics from entertainment to politics and several book launches also took place. It is a place and chance for citizens and fans to meet and chat with the authors and top media personalities who they have been reading or watching and to get to know about those they may have no heard of before. Karachiites, often considered deprived of any sort day to day entertainment on a larger public scale, have in the last few years responded in a huge way with many such festivals now taking place all year round. Seen in the photograph is a packed garden where one panel discussion was taking place. Photo by @khaula28 #karachi #pakistan
