Sohrab Mohammadi, The Voice of Love Stories in Kurdistan of Khorasan

Kurdshop: Share Jan is the name of a love whose story with its warrior lover has disappeared into the pages of history. During the Uzbek and Turkmen attacks on the northern border of Khorasan, it was rumored that the lover was fighting on the front lines and that the enemy had taken another route to the Zanglanlu mansion, where Share lived and waited for her lover.

Throughout the troubled history of war and occupation by the opponents across the borders of North Khorasan, when lovers are separated during the war, the distance becomes a historical sentence, verse, and song that Sohrab leaves to us as a gift. "Share Jan" becomes the story of the days and nights of the Kurmanj people.

The sound of the music of Share Jan becomes the ray of fire of this pure feeling and influences the hearts and minds of young people and lovers and sprinkles compassion on everyone.

Sohrab was a narrative of a lost love in the history of this region. Migration from the land of their ancestors and their dispersion in distant countries. But the power of Sohrab's throat has always told us hundreds of stories.
