Dastangoi (Urdu: داستان گوئی) is a 13th century Urdu oral storytelling art form.[1][2][3]
The Persian style of dastan evolved in 16th century.[4]
One of the earliest references in print to dastangoi is a 19th-century text containing 46 volumes of the adventures of Amir Hamza titled Dastan e Amir Hamza.[5]
The art form reached its zenith in the Indian sub-continent in the 19th century and is said to have died with the demise of Mir Baqar Ali in 1928. Dastangoi was revived[6] by historian, author and director Mahmood Farooqui in 2005.[7]Syed Sahil Agha has amalgamated Dastangoi with music & singing in 2010.[8]
At the centre of dastangoi is the dastango, or storyteller, whose voice is his main artistic tool in orally recreating the dastan or the story. Notable 19th-century dastangos included Amba Prasad Rasa, Mir Ahmad Ali Rampuri, Muhammad Amir Khan, Syed Husain Jah, and Ghulam Raza.
