{'tansen': [1, 0, 1, 1], 'mahananda pande': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'baz bahadur': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'akbar': [7, 4, 6, 2], 'ramtanu pande': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'lal kalwant': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'famous musician': [1, 0, 1, 0], 'original name': [3, 0, 1, 1]}

The original name of Tansen, the famous musician in the court of Akbar, was Ramtanu Pande. Option 1, Mahananda Pande, is not the correct answer. Option 2, Lal Kalwant, is also incorrect. Option 3, Baz Bahadur, is also not the original name of Tansen. Hence, the correct answer is option 4, Ramtanu Pande. Tansen was a renowned musician and vocalist during the Mughal era. He was known for his exceptional talent in classical music and was honored with the title "Mian" by Akbar. Tansen`s contributions to Indian classical music are immense, and he is considered as one of the greatest musicians in Indian history.
