Hukus Bukus

Hukus Bukus is an online portal and digital media project committed to disseminating Kashmiri culture, education, and national harmony through animated storytelling and educational content. Started in January 2024, the platform seeks to appeal to younger audiences by inculcating cultural pride and social harmony.

History

Hukus Bukus" is the name taken from a classic Kashmiri folklore song[1] that has been passed across generations. The song is sometimes sung as a lullaby and is a part of the cultural heritage of Kashmir. It is attributed to the great saint-poet Lalleshwari (Lal Ded) by some sources, and it is highly entrenched in spiritual traditions of Kashmir. The song's lyrics, penned in the Kashmiri language, have been translated to express introspective and philosophical content. The song's rhythmic and melodic structure has helped make it ageless, appealing to both the young and the elderly.[2][1]
