Padmavati Rani Padmini of Chittore a Historical Romance

Chittorgarh remains replete with historic associations and holds a very special place in the hearts of Rajputs, as it was a bastion of the clan at a time when every other stronghold had succumbed to invasion. It is often called as the Bhakti aur Shakti ki nagari land of devotion and strength. The first, Meera Bai, is the most famous female Hindu spiritual poet, whose compositions are still popular throughout North India. The saga of Rani Padmini and her jahur, and the great warrior Maharana Pratap, son of Rana Udai Singh II, is regarded as a personification of the values Rajputs cherish and die for.
