The term Nawab of Pataudi refers to the lineage of rulers of the former princely Pataudi State in Northern India. Pataudi was established in 1804 by the British East India Company, when Faiz Talab Khan, an Afghan Muslim Pashtun of the Barech tribe, who was made the first Nawab, aided them in their battle against the Maratha Empire, during the Second Anglo-Maratha War.[1] The family traces their origin to 16th century India, when their ancestors immigrated from present-day Afghanistan to India during the Lodi dynasty.[1]
The 8th Nawab of Pataudi, Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi, played first-class cricket for both England and India while his son, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, the last Nawab, captained the Indian cricket team.
Actor Saif Ali Khan, actress Soha Ali Khan and Saba Ali Khan are the children of the last Nawab of Pataudi, whereas actress Sara Ali Khan is the granddaughter of the last Nawab.
