Roshanara Begum (September 3, 1617 – September 11, 1671) was an Imperial Princess of the Mughal Empire as the second daughter of the Mughal Emperor, Shah Jahan and his Empress consort Mumtaz Mahal. Born on September 3, 1617, Roshanara was a brilliant woman, a talented poet, the mastermind behind her brother, Aurangazeb's accession to the Mughal throne, and by the time of her death in 1671, one of the most notorious women in the Mughal Empire.

Today, however, Roshanara is best known for the Roshanara Bagh, a pleasure garden located in north Delhi, next to Kamala Nagar Road and Grand Trunk Road. The present-day Roshanara Club which was constructed in the late 19th century by the British is a famous country club that was actually originally a part of the Roshanara Bagh.
