The Untold Secret Story of the First Parsees in India
A Jamshedi Navroze Special
Parsi Gujarati Play
Everyone knows of the story of the Parsis coming to India and the iconic moment when they agreed to blend into the community like sugar in milk.
Not much, however, is known of what happened before and after that iconic moment: The last Zoroastrians who were forced out of Persia and how they became the first Parsis in India. We finally have access to the comical incidents that took place, which have not been accounted for in historical documents. Meherzad Patel has uncovered the truth—factual (maybe), hilarious (hopefully) and a story that you can choose to believe (or not).
