Shahrokh Shah or Shahrokh Mirza (Persian: شاهرخ‌میرزا ,شاهرخ‌شاه‎; 1734–1796), better known by his dynastic title of Shahrokh Shah (شاهرخ‌ شاه‎) was the Afsharid king (shah) of the western part of Khorasan (corresponding to the present-day Khorasan Province) from 1750 to 1796, with a two-month interruption. A grandson of the Iranian conqueror Nader Shah (r. 1736–1747), Shahrokh was the son of Reza Qoli Mirza Afshar and his Safavid wife Fatemeh Soltan Begom, who was the sister of Tahmasp II, the penultimate Safavid shah of Iran. Shahrokh's half-Safavid descent made him stand out amongst his Afsharid relatives, and was used to bolster the legitimacy of his grandfather. Read more on Wikipedia
