Shrabani Basu is an Indian journalist and historian, best known for writing Spy Princess (2006), an account of the life of Noor Inayat Khan, and Victoria & Abdul (2010), based on the friendship between Queen Victoria and Abdul Karim. She later compiled the stories of Indian men sent to Europe in the First World War, in For King and Another Country (2015). In The Mystery of the Parsee Lawyer (2021), she showed how Arthur Conan Doyle proved the innocence of George Edalji, an Indian lawyer in early twentieth century Midlands, England.

Basu's work has been adapted into the film Victoria & Abdul (2017), and has led to the founding of the Noor Inayat Khan Memorial Trust and a memorial to Khan, erected in Gordon Square, London. In 2020, she unveiled a Blue Plaque outside Khan's home on Taviton Street.
