The hashtag #PhirAaiBasant is trending as residents share memories, photos, and hopes of seeing the skies filled with color once more.
Cultural observers say the renewed excitement highlights Lahore’s deep-rooted connection with Basant — a festival that defines the city’s soul. While discussions around safety and regulation continue, one thing is clear: Basant lives on in the hearts of Lahoris.
As the season approaches, all eyes are on Lahore — a city ready to celebrate its culture, responsibly and proudly.
