They were the 19th generation of an unbroken chain of the Dagarvani Dhrupad tradition.

The brothers were born in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. Their musical career unfolded in Delhi. After the untimely demise of Ustad Nasir Moinuddin Dagar at Calcutta in 1967 they became the only pair carrying on the jugalbandi singing. The Dagar Brothers played a very important role in the revival of Dhrupad tradition, carrying forward the great work done by their elder brothers. They took dhrupad to Europeand America and Japan. In India they formed the Dhrupad Society to popularise dhrupad inviting exponents from all gharanas to share their platform.
