The famous Qawali song ‘Bardo Jholi Meri Ya
Mohammed… Loutkar Myna Jaoonga Khali’ is reverberating from road side and it
attracted nearly two hundred people near Satnala bus stand in Adilabad town.
Yes, a small mobile Qawali troop is sung the song.
The above song used in the
Bajrangi Bhaijan movie in which actor Salman Khan played a lead role.
The ‘Mobile Qawali’ came to Adilabad and is
enthralling the music and Qawali lovers in Adilabad town.

his ‘mobile Qawali’ shows at various places and enthralling the people with the
old Qawalis. Sheik Akbar said they eking livelihood with ‘mobile Qawali’ and
people are offering alms enough for their bread and butter and life is going on
with their song ‘Bardo Jholi Meri Ya Mohammed…Loutkar Myna Jaoonga Khali’.
There was no dais and modern mike system and costly
musical instruments in the mobile Qawali and just sit on the tarpaulin placed
on ground at road side, with old mike system.
Sheik Akbar moves with his family members and
musical instruments from one place to another place and perform Qawali at
centre places in the towns. The musicians take alms from the audience
completing their show.
Majority of songs are with the theme of ‘Ajmeer
Khaza’ and ‘Chaman Wale Baba’, Tajuddin Baba’. One Qawali song goes like this
‘Khazake .. Ishq Me Badleme Kyamila..’.

instrument. The Qawal Sheik Akbar sung Qawali song in high pitched voice which
resembles in the surroundings.
In the intervals, a musician playing famous cinema
