Jamshed Bakht

Jamshed Bakht was a Mughal descendant through his father, Mirza Jawan Bakht, son of Bahadur Shah II the last Mughal emperor. His mother was his father's maternal cousin Nawab Shah S Begum. In 1949, British authorities removed all bans and restrictions on the Mughal royalty and Bakht received a princely pension of 450 Rupees per month. He had married twice, secondly to Sultana Nadir Begum which allegedly produced Bakht's only son Bedaar Bakht, though he is said to have had at least one son out of wedlock through mistresses. He died in 1921 after which the princely pension was suspended till after Indian Independence.[1]
