== Founding of group==

The group was founded in 2010.<ref name=hav3/><ref name=hav1/> It is led by the director and producer couple Ermatov Rustamjon Gulomjonovich (Rustam) and his wife Ermatova Matluba Murotkhojaevna (Matluba). Rustam is the group leader and director. His wife Matluba, a graduate in child psychology, is the producer who also manages her family's large textile business. Their son Gulomjonov Khakhramon (Khakhramon) and daughter Gulomjanova Shakhnoza (Shakhnoza) are singers. Khakhramon, the winner of the Nihol national award, awarded by the president for excellence in music, is the lead singer, composer, and keyboard player. Singer Shahnoza is also a keyboard player and painter. Rustam and Matluba's younger son Gulomjanov Dostonbek (Dostonbek) and multiple awards winning youngest daughter Gulomjanova Robiyakhon (Robiya) are also singers and violinists in the band. Robiya has been singing in concerts since the age of 6 years. The eldest child of the founder couple, Khakhramon - the lead singer, was 25 years old as of January 2019.<ref name=hav3/><ref name=hav1/><ref name=hav2/><ref name=hav11/>

Indian music is popular in Uzbekistan, and [[Bollywood]] actors and singers, such as [[Raj_Kapoor#Legacy|Raj Kapoor]], [[Shahrukh Khan]], [[Sonu Nigam]], [[Shreya Ghosal]], and [[Arijit Singh]], have large fan followings in Uzbekistan.<ref name=hav3/> The founding couple both love listening to the songs of legendary Indian actor [[Raj Kapoor]], which also inspired their children to take up singing Indian songs.<ref name=hav2/> Since the family does not understand any [[Languages of India|Indian languages]], Kakhramon initially had difficulty in singing Indian songs. Once he grasped the emotions, after searching the lyrics on the internet and translating into the Uzbek language, he became good at singing Indian songs.<ref name=hav2/> Ermatov family visited [[R._K._Films#R._K._Studio|RK Studio]], founded by Raj Kapoor in [[Mumbai]] in India, to pay tribute to their inspiration Raj Kapoor.<ref name=hav2/>

They first went viral after Khakhramon sung cult classic song [[Awaara Hoon]], from Raj Kapoor's 1951 film [[Awaara]], during the celebration of 25 years of [[India–Uzbekistan relations]] at the Indian embassy in Uzbekistan. Raj Kapoor and his songs are very popular in India and overseas, especially in the [[Soviet_Union#Post-Soviet_states|former USSR bloc]].<ref name=hav8>[https://telanganatoday.com/awara-hoon-breaking-boundaries-and-language-barriers ‘Awara hoon’, breaking boundaries and language barriers], Telangana Today, 18 October 2019.</ref>
