Only relatives with a profile here are drawn, so a family can be larger than this. A line here can also be wrong. A marriage is drawn as ended only where its end is recorded, so a spouse drawn here may be a former one.

Beyzai attended the Dar'ol-Fonoun high school as an adolescent, where he did not get along with his peers and teachers, and regularly skipped classes to go to the movies. In his late teens he composed his earliest dramatic pieces.
