BIOGRAPHY
Let's start with the fact that this is not his real name (Farrokh Bulsara true name). Farruh Balsara was
born in 1946 in the Stone town of Zanzibar island, Tanzania. His father, Bomi, was a cashier at the
Supreme court of England and Wales and made a good living, so the family did not need anything.
When Farrukh was 5 years old, his parents moved with him and his sister Kashmir to
Bombay. The boy was sent to a boarding school 150 km from the largest city in India,
where he proved to be a capable and diligent student, fond of creativity and sports.
At this time, Farrukh was fond of music: a special influence on him had a bollywood singer Lata Mangeshkar,
and later the boy started to be interested in rock-n-roll. The future musician started calling himself Freddy.
In 1959, the whole family moved to London, where, after graduating from school, in 1965, Farruh
entered the famous College of Ealing. There he studied design, painting, was fond of ballet. Freddy’s idols
at that time were Jimmy Hendrix and Rudolf Nureyev, he dedicated his thesis to the work of the first.
