Dhruv Sangari
Indian Sufi qawwal and music scholar, born in Delhi in 1981, who took the name Bilal Chishty after initiation in the Chishti Sufi line. He learned qawwali from Ustad Meraj Ahmed Nizami of the Qawwal Bachhe gharana at the dargah of Nizamuddin Auliya in Delhi, the oldest qawwali lineage, which traces itself to Amir Khusrau, and also studied with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.
