Tell us about yourself
I belong to the royal family of Punjab and have been an advisor to the Nizam’s family in Hyderabad for close to 25 years. I advise them on everything from political matters, relation with state and central governments to their personal issues. Since most of the family is now in Turkey, I look at matters that require immediate attention.
Royal paraphernalia evokes much curiosity. Please comment on it!
They are like a slice of history and have so much value. One can get to know about the past of a region, state or even country through old artefacts, sarees and jewellery from royal households.
What is the biggest concern in preserving royal heritage?
We have limited information about our royal past. We need to preserve it as it will lay the foundation for the future.
