He was son of Akbar Shah II and Lalbai, who was a Hindu Rajput. He became Mughal Emperor when his father died on September 28, 1837. He was widely known as Bahadur Shah Zafar. He used Zafar a part of his name, meaning “victory”,[1] as a nom de plume (takhallus) too, as anUrdu poet. He has written many Urdu ghazals. After the Indian Rebellion of 1857 the British Administration exiled him from Delhi.
