An Ottoman architect trained under Sinan worked on Akbar’s buildings

Evidence

There seems to have been some cultural contact between the two countries, mainly through individual travellers. Thus the Ottoman architect Mimar Yusuf, a disciple of the great Mimar Sinan (1490–1578), by common consent the greatest of Ottoman architects, went to India and entered the service of Akbar. He is reputed to have had some hand in the buildings of Agra and Delhi. — Bernard Lewis, From Babel to Dragomans, 623
