He chose a pipe with a natural hollow stem that was longer and broader than the pungi, and made seven holes on the body of the pipe. When he played on it, closing and opening some of these holes, soft and melodious sounds were produced. He played the instrument before royalty and everyone was impressed.

Hope it helps you!

The Barber impressed the royalty of emperor Aurangzeb by playing the musical instrument Shehnai.

  • Aurangzeb had banned the instrument pungi, as it was thought to be a noise maker.
  • The barber decided to improve the tone of pungi. He chose a pipe with a natural hollow stem, wider and longer than the pungi, and made seven holes the surface of pipe.
  • As he played it, some of these holes closed and opened, giving gentle and melodious sounds.
  • Everyone was impressed, and they decided to give the new name to the instrument as Shehnai.
