Hyderabad: Another attraction of a unique laser-based light and sound show with a water screen and musical fountain on the waves of Hussainsagar is all set to be inaugurated on Tuesday.

Conceptualised and commissioned by Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, it will be adding to the tourist attractions of the city.

He will inaugurate the gallery, the light and sound show, besides launch the Kohinoor Story at 5 pm at Sanjeevaiah Park. The light and sound show depicts the story of the world’s most coveted diamond, the 'Kohinoor', mined from the soil of Telangana. The genesis of Kohinoor and its journey across cultures and continents is an interesting story. For a variety of reasons, the story has not been effectively brought into public domain. To bring the story to light, Reddy has initiated the project. The script was written by SS Kanchi under the supervision of S Vijayendra Prasad, MP (Rajya Sabha).

A majority of light and sound shows across India have always been located at sites that have historical significance, but a laser-based show on the waves of a lake is a new experiment, and coming to Hyderabad for the first time. A series of fountains transform into a screen on Hussainsagar, showcasing a colourful video image rendering the story and, through Kohinoor, the story of Telangana and the cultural and civilisational heritage of the nation.

Through this creative narration, the project aims to have tourist attractions that showcase the history of the area, using audio-visual media through aqua screen projection mapping with a synchronised fountain show, with a rich background score and cultural music. A seating arrangement for tourists has been planned along with proper signages in and around the area with pathways and public utilities.

Popular singer Sunita rendered the story, and Vandematram Srinivas composed the music.
