The image portrays an early performance by Saieen Zahoor, a renowned singer who gained fame in his 60s after spending most of his life performing at Sufi shrines. He resonates a passionate, high-energy style of singing, often dancing in a frenzied style with the tassels on his instrument whirling around him. His typical outfit includes embroidered kurta, beads, tightly bound turban, as well as anklet-bells worn by dances.

Sufi singing is focused on poetry with themes of devotional love, which shares much with Persian mystic poets like Rumi and with other South Asian traditions.
