Chattrapati Shivaji - Part 1

Chattrapati Shivaji was one of the greatest Bharatiya kings. He carved out a Hindu empire through sheer will, tactical acumen and great statesmanship. It was destined to be one of the largest pan-Indian empires to exist before British. In this episode, we look at the early life and formative years of Shivaji Maharaj. We will also see examples of strategic brilliance in his early conquests. Finally, we will witness the founding event of the Maratha Empire through the eyes of a guard stationed outside Afzal Khan's tent on November 10, 1659.
