He, in all consciousness, decided to share the same fate despite being persistently enticed by Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan. Some of the politicians who have visited and/or stayed in Mustafa Castle are as follows: Mahatma Gandhi [three days during the Khilafat Movement] Jawaher Lal Nehru [three days during the Khilafat Movement] Mohammad Ali Jinnah [twice during the Pakistan Movement] Sarojini Naidu Maulana Abdul Kalam Azad Maulana Mohammad Ali Maulana Hasrat Mohani Vijaya Lakshmi Pundit Bahadur Yar Jang of Hyderabad Vithalbhai Patel Bhulabhai Desai Govind Vallabh Pant Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan Nawab Muhammad Ahmad Khan The Inner Portion of the Castle Several chambers within the Castle are named after colours such as 'Basanti', 'Gulabi' and so forth. They are used distinctly in summer or winter months with the relevant color schemes. Some of the originality that remains in the Castle includes furniture that had been imported by Nawab Mohammad Ishak Khan from London, to various showpieces that the Castle displays with pride. Pendulum clocks, ornately designed lamps, antique chandeliers, carved wooden cabinets, chests, dressing tables, cupboards and drawers, antique lampshades, candle-stands, mirrors and historic portraits are amongst some of the rare artifacts that have been preserved throughout Mustafa Castle's century-old lifetime.
