But a barber modified and perfected it . He chose a pipe with natural hollow stem that was longer and broader than the pungi,and made seven holes on the body of pipe and played it for the first time at Shah's chamber. Soft and melodious sounds were produced from it and everyone was impressed thus it came to be known as 'Shehnai
