Rajah Muzaffar Ali (Urdu: مظفر علی‎, Hindi: मुज़फ्फर अली, born 21 October 1944, Lucknow) is an Indian filmmaker, a fashion designer, a poet, an artist, a music-lover, a revivalist, and a social worker. He belongs to the Muslim Rajput royal house of Kotwara in India. He is not to be confused with the famous 16th century Persian artist of the Persian miniature.
