Indian title of honour (5)

I believe the answer is:

nawab

(Other definitions for nawab that I've seen before include "Mogul official" , "Indian governor" , "Governor in Mogul empire" , "Important Muslim" , "Native governor in India; bwana (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
