About the Foundation

Amir Khusro (1253–1325), a disciple of Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya, was one of the most influential cultural figures of the Indian subcontinent. Renowned for his contributions to poetry, music, and literature, he played a pivotal role in shaping Hindustani classical traditions and symbolized the harmonious synthesis of diverse cultural influences. His legacy continues to inspire generations through its emphasis on creativity, spirituality, and cultural harmony.
