Varda Arts - Jungbari


Varda Arts - Jungbari song!
Kacchi-Swahili language spoken among Zanzibari-Asians has been a landmark and an identity of Jungbaris (Zanzibaris) for years! It is so sweet to listen to Zanzibari-Asians speaking broken Kacchi replaced by Kiswahili!

Jungbaris are more comfortable with the use of the Swahili language in the family rather than their native language Kuchhi! They speak better Swahili than even the mainland Africans. We personally have always found it so pleasing and have admired their sweet flow of this mixed Kacchi-Swahili language. In this song 'Jungbari' we have tried to capture few cultural fabrics for East Africa's Gujarati families settled in Tanzania and Kenya as 'Kacchi' is deprived from Kutch district in Gujarat, India.
