Opinion The story of khayal shows how attempts to remove the imprint of Muslim rule will impoverish Indian culture

I am not sure the regime will stop here. The imprint of Muslim rule, especially the Mughal empire, abounds in contemporary India, from tangible heritage, such as monuments, to culture, including clothes, food, language and music. The regime has long been attempting to stigmatise and marginalise Urdu.

Will it eventually make its way to khayal, the more widely practised of the two raga-bound genres with roots in north India, and the one that I have been learning for many years? The other genre is dhrupad, the older of the two. In the musical context, the word khayal, derived from Persian, means “imagination”. Today, the majority of khayal’s practitioners are Hindu, but in previous generations, a mix of Hindu and Muslim singers coexisted, while in its early phase, the genre emerged in a Sufi Islamic context.

Khyal
Modern genre of classical singing in the Indian subcontinent
Khyal or Khayal (ख़याल / خیال) is a major form of Hindustani classical music in the Indian subcontinent. Its name comes from a Persian/Arabic word meaning "imagination".[1] Khyal is associated with romantic poetry, and allows the performer greater freedom of expression than dhrupad and is sung with the tabla instead of the pakhavaj. In khyal, ragas are extensively ornamented, and the style calls for more technical virtuosity.[2]
Etymology
Khyāl (خیال) is an Urdu word of Arabic origin which means "imagination, thought, ideation, meditation, reflection". Hence khyal connotes the idea of a song that is imaginative and creative in either its nature or execution. The word entered India through the medium of the Persian language. Just as the word reflects ideas of imagination and imaginative composition, the musical form is imaginative in conception, artistic and decorative in execution and romantic in appeal.[3][4][5]
