00:09The great history and musical legacy of the Patiala Gharana, to be honest, needs no praise.
00:15Recently, a tribute was posted on Facebook on the occasion of Ustad Amanat Ali Khan's death anniversary.
00:22And in no time, this Tajiya was filled with the immense emotional waves of the madahs of the new era.
00:28We will try to understand the history of this great series and the significance of a true master.
00:33Well, let's get into the details of this. There is a story on social media called Ruche Neelo Fur.
00:40A scholar writes with utmost devotion
00:44heart-wrenching voice
00:46This is clear evidence of how much impact this music has even today, despite the passing of generations.
00:53Gera is
00:53The new Nazal is still in the grip of this voice.
00:57But here a very fundamental question arises.
01:19To understand this difference, let us visit the canteen of a radio station in Lahore in the 1980s.
01:26will have to do
01:26There a writer, Ali Adnan, arrives in search of Pana after a period of severe failure and disappointment in music.
01:34There he encountered two very different attitudes.
01:37On one side was Azim Gulukar Riaz Ali Khan who suddenly rejected a young tabla player just by saying
01:45Given that his mastery is not worthy of anyone
01:47And on the other side was the great maestro Fateh Ali Khan, who was surrounded by his madams and friends in the canteen.
01:54Despite this, that day he was making the young man sit in his lap with great enthusiasm.
02:00What happens is that generally people who are inexperienced in the world are ignored a little.
02:05But Azim Ustad did exactly opposite to this.
02:08Instead of driving this amateur young man away from there, he asked him with utmost kindness and gentleness which boy he was.
02:14was playing the rhythm
02:15And then he gladly offered to help her.
02:23Now the most interesting thing to understand here is this
02:27That in a few minutes, Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, without any harsh rebuke, just with his hands
02:34With the help of gestures, the young man learned not only Teentaal based on sixteen beats but also Ektaal and Japatal.
02:41Even difficult locks were taught easily.
02:44This was not the gift of any traditional master but the gentleness and greatness of a true artist and then a
02:52Nahayat Fatamand Lamha Aaya is a short song in Raga Jaunpuri with her voice and the accompaniment of the boy's tabla.
02:59After completing the C recording
03:14The Meaning of Ustad: After all, what does the truth of being a Ustad mean?
03:44No matter how well he sings, he is just a singer, not a master.
03:48Roots of Patiala Gharana, the historical roots of this order.
03:52And this explains in the best possible way the lineage from which this warmth and kindness comes.
03:59The matter was resolved.
04:00The journey begins in the eighteenth century with Ustad Jasse Khan, then Ustad Ditte Khan and then Miya Kalu Khan.
04:07After him come his successors, Janaail Ali Pakhsh Khan and Karnaail Fatehali Khan.
04:12But on this date in music, a dramatic mode was about to come that would change everything forever.
04:18I have done it.
04:18Just imagine what happens when the beloved of an extremely powerful Maharaja falls in love with a court maid.
04:26Should I get confused?
04:26This is the story of a Mamnua Mubthala from the late eighteenth century that created a stir in this entire musical field.
04:33It created a ruckus.
04:37A dangerous royal romance
04:39This historical incident is no less than a suspense film.
04:43Ghokhi Bai lived a life of luxury as an Ijaji Maharani in the court of the Maharaja of Patiala.
04:50Was.
04:50But she was deeply afraid because the Maharaja's son hated her.
04:55In such a situation, during a courtly gathering, when Miya Kalu Khan sang Bilas Khani Todi Raga,
05:02Ghokhi Bai was completely captivated by that voice.
05:06The situation suddenly took such a turn that the very next day Gokhi Bai was hiding in the clothes of a common servant.
05:13Mia reached Kalu's doorstep.
05:15If this news reached the Maharaja, both of them would have faced severe wrath and could have been killed.
05:22Was.
05:23To escape death under the shadow of an unknown fear, a person left from there towards Gaulier at midnight.
05:29The absconding of the Nahayat Pur Khatar came.
05:32A founding musical dynasty. The dawn of a new musical empire.
05:39But what was the outcome of that midnight escape?
05:43At that time, Miya Kallu had left his two sons in Patte Ala.
05:47Years later, when his son Ali Bakhsh learned the truth,
05:51So he had to face severe ridicule and criticism from the public regarding his parentage.
05:56This public taunting had broken the young man's heart badly.
06:00Let's move ahead and see how this series progresses.
06:05Ali Bakhsh and his cousin, Fateh Ali Khan, decided to give up in the face of this deep sorrow and despair.
06:11Instead, he made it his strength.
06:13He received rigorous training and mastery of music continuously for twenty years.
06:19This very night and Russia's hard work finally transformed that fun into glory and in a real way
06:26Laid the foundation of Patiala Gharana.
06:27So here's a deep moment of thought. How does one's love and addiction meet that fugitive night?
06:35The moment shaped the music of South Asia for centuries to come.
06:40This is the same music filled with warmth, compassion and love, which my master Ustad Fatyali Khan had created in that Radio Canteen.
06:48I did it, and its fragrance still touches the hearts of the madhus.
06:53The legacy of the real master truly lives on for centuries.
