Mainly the musician of Hindustani music or Shastriya Sangeet use such title. Muslim musician in India keeps the title Ustad and Hindus keep the word Pandit before their names.

In india it might be related to tht but in Pakistan... a teacher = Ustad.. also used for masters of arts etc...like Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan etc.
