It is apparently in Agar, which may or may not be close to Badshaha Talao, which is near Shiroli Bk. (no idea what Bk. stands for). If it is this dargah, the wretched thing is well concealed on the internet.

That's why I quoted the second ASI listing, which describes the dargah as being west of the Habshi Gumbez (Gumbaz). Mind you, I can't even find the Habsi Gumbaz – Google either stares at me blankly or berates me for being a fool for asking.

PS: distaff (who does not normally do vinathorats) looked over my shoulder while I was banging away, and her sharp eyes spotted this note about the dargah on the other ASI page, and her retentive memory remembered it, and her frying pan forcefully reminded me: "IS IT UNDER RELIGIOUS USE No"

Vinaji

Since i have no clue about maharashtra, my guess is Kukdeshwar temple, Junnar, MH....though I'm not very much convinced myself - but playing the lottery has it's advantages.

Congrats, vaibhav.
