The glimpse of the Indian entry is from a beautiful fan film called ‘The Cure – Game of Thrones Kashmiri Tribute’. The film features beautiful rendition of the theme music mixed by traditional Kashmiri instruments like the rabab and no't. Reportedly, the tune was played by musicians Sufiyan Malik (rabab), Hujat Kirmani (piano) & Zakir Bakshi (no’t & guitar).
The fan film incorporates few popular characters like John Snow, who is accompanied by his own night's watch, a cameo by Tyrion Lannister and the Night King, amidst fantastic shots of snow-clad mountains.

Shot in Gulmarg, the video had garnered a lot of positive feedback when it was released last year.
