Legend has it that Khwaja Nizamuddin Auliya was enormously aggrieved and distressed by the sudden and untimely death of his nephew Taqiuddin Nooh. He withdrew himself from all worldly affairs and started avoiding mehfils and meeting his followers. This became a worrisome situation for his disciples after some time — as they tried many a ruses to cheer their master up but failed.
Then one day, Amir Khusro (one of his most favorite disciples) saw some young women draped in yellow clothes and adorned with marigold flowers, singing and dancing in delight — as they went to pray in a temple nearby, on Vasant Utsav (Spring Festival). Seeing this Khusro immediately attired himself up in yellow 'Ghaghra and Chunni'; hung garlands of marigold around his neck and with a bunch of sarson(mustard) flowers in hands, went straightaway to his masters room. There he started dancing and singing to his self-composed song. This gesture of Khusro brought a smile on Hazrat Nizamuddin's face and since then every year for more than seven centuries now, Sufi Basant has become a regular festival.
