Answer:

'Sheh + nai' as it was played by a barber (nai) for the first time in the palace of an emperor (shah).

Shehnai is the new version of an instrument called 'pungi'. It was moderated by a barber.

Explanation:

  • A barber from the family of musicians decide to better the quality of an instrument named 'pungi'.
  • He took a long hollow pipe, slightly longer than the pungi and made seven holes in that pipe.
  • When he played on that instrument, heavenly music was produced from it.
  • As it was played in front of the emperor who was called "shah", it was named as 'shehnai'.

Hence, the barber and emperor played the role in naming it 'shehnai'.
