As naregseferian noticed, the guy in the back with glasses is Vahe Berberian himself, the comedian that is still alive today and was born in late 1950's.
So the clip is definitely a recent Armenian creation in Los Angeles. I would say between 2005-2007 period and performed purely by Armenians. Note that Berberian is a comedian...this might be one of his acts.

This must be Peshawar,a'la L.A. California USA.
The singers con-artists, including Mr. Vahe Berberian.
The accordeons are of recent make, and the eye glasses by armani or gucci design.
However to top it all the rope lighting at the edge of the stage a 5-7 year old innovation used commonly during X-Mas time
in where did you say? PESHAWAR.....PAKISTAN....Ha?

You are absolutely correct. This film was made post 1970. The cinemetography does not match that of the 1930's.

This is a great spoof! I come from Peshawar myself and knew the small Armenian community there too. However, those are Arab clothes, not Peshawari shalwar-kamiz. The drums are of a kind never seen in Peshawar. Piano accordions are not usually used in Peshawari music, nor is the style of this music typical of Peshawar or the Frontier region, even if they are singing in Armenian. Very funny! :o)

The Armenian genius shows itself in the coded messages ( more intriguing than the Da Vinci Code ) right after the 40th second into the video - congrats Vahe! Bolsahays will dechiper them easily :)
