For a real challenge, name Hari Singh's father's name!

I found it on the web. Really must see it again.

ANSWERS:


1. Thakur Baldev Singh
2. Hira (very likely. Girija lohar just says that Pipri gaon se do kos duur par
Hira aur us ke sathi aay hue hain. There is nothing to actually indicate
that Jalal Agha is Hira)
3. Hari Singh
4. Mukaitullah
5. Ramgadh (Rs 1.5) & Belapur (Rs 2)
