Explanation

Muhammad Shah (1719-1748) was called 'Rangeela' (colorful) due to his interest in arts, music, and lavish lifestyle. Akbar was known as 'the Great', Aurangzeb for his austere rule, and Jahandar Shah's reign was too brief (1712-1713) to earn such a nickname. Muhammad Shah's court was known for cultural patronage.
