Which of the following singers founded the Jaipur-Atrauli Gharana and wrote many a bandish on the Hindu gods?
Answer: C
Ustad Alladiya Khan founded the Jaipur-Atrauli gharana of Hindustani vocal music. Kesarbai Kerkar was one of his best-known disciples, not the founder. Vidyadhar Vyas is associated with the Gwalior and Agra traditions, and Ghulam Ali Khan was a musician of a different lineage. The Jaipur-Atrauli gharana is known for its complex and unusual raga selection and its rhythmic vocal style, and it grew from Alladiya Khan's training in Atrauli and his service at the court of Jaipur.
