The Ajrara style of tabla playing gets its name from the village. It is thought to be an offshoot of the Delhi gharana because its founders, brothers Kallo Khan and Miroo Khan, had spent a considerable amount of time in Delhi learning from some of the great Ustads of the time, before returning to their native Ajrara.
