    Welcome to the 3-part special on the story of Shivaji Maharaj, always waited to present this to the audience. Our guest today is Medha Bhaskaran, a microbiologist, an author, and another all-star of The Ranveer Show. The wealth of knowledge she has is truly incredible, honoured to host Medha ma'am at our space for such fantastic episodes we created with her. In this episode, we go into the depths of the Mughal empire, before the Shivaji Maharaj era, and what was the country's socio-economic status back then, what was the reality of the kings and the emperors who ruled our land mass. REAL Stories Of Indian History Uncovered - Watch out.
    Medha Bhaskaran, from the year 2000 onwards, started studying Mughal Maratha history as she felt passionate about it. More than a hundred books were referred to, forts visited, and discussions with historians, weapon experts and other people involved in the subjects continued. She is the author of Shivaji's bestselling biography, Challenging Destiny. Amazon Link: www.amazon.in/Challenging-Des...
    This episode is a 3-part conversation starting from the rule of the Mughal Empire, before the Shivaji Maharaj era, then part 2 where we talk about the times when India saw the rise of Shivaji Maharaj, and then comes part 3 where we talk about his final vision. Stay Tuned as Part 2 and Part 3 of this series will be released in the following two Tuesdays of the Month of October.

      No ranveer this is also a fiction. The truth is that except britishers and portuguese nobody from outside including the so-called islamists mongol turks crossbreed mughals has ruled us. They ruled mostly delhi . And delhi wasn't of that much importance back then . It's only later after kolkata delhi became the capital. And no muslims has ruled us it's a myth lie created by leftists distortions in service of congress.

They knew about the i$lamic cruelity but not very precisely. I don't actually remember when did savarkar wrote this but yea the Akbarnama and other books became available completely in english after 1930 and so , i guess.

    The Moghuls were outsiders to India who claimed Mongolian ancestry from Tamerlane and Genghis Khan. Not just in India, in many places when their are outside rulers, they tend to be cruel and uncaring of local indigenous cultures and peoples. The Moghuls, like most outside colonizers, ran an extractive economy that took from the local people. Contrast that to indigenous empires like Ahom, Chola or Vijayanagara where living conditions for the average person benefitted.

    Many people say Akbar was very great , but he was not great . He was just a self obsessed and cruel Mughal king like his ancestors. If you don't know , during Akbar's conquest on chittorgarh. He massacred about 30,000 -40, 000 innocent civilians in the fort and made a skull tower from their heads to spread fear among the peoples. He was not great in any way . It's all truth.

    Which ruler, conqueror or king wasn’t cruel ? Battles and wars were part of almost every king, it may be due to saving one’s kingdom or to expand it. If Alexander and Ashoka, despite butchering millions can be Great, why can’t be Akbar. Akbar was Great because of his tolerance and respect towards other religions. He even tried to unite all under one religion Deen e ilahi, which was failure. Rajputs flourished under his reign and so their religion.

Directors like him have twisted the stories in the name freedom of creativity doing gross injustice to the characters whose names and characters were based on real people who existed. There is one thing to be inspired by a historical figure create a fictional story loosely based on them. But it's another thing to take a historical figure in its entirety and completely change the intent and execution of the decisions they took in those times or to fabricate false relationship stories about them that never existed.

I don't understand why people have so much fascination for Kings and Kingdoms . Concepts such as Humanity , human rights etc didn't existed back then .Killing someone was a sign of bravery and power . And yes you are right there is no difference with todays politicians . It's because Kings , politicians represent the evil mindset of masses whom they represent . People make Kings ,politicians as hero because they fight for their evil causes . You can take the example of todays world leaders .

    Watching a movie expecting that it's true story is kind of funny, that's why the disclaimer is given at the start of all movies...am not saying movies won't influence ppl, it will influence that's the fact, but art is art, the creator has some freedom he can twist and turn it...the movie is evaluated not by its exact minute depiction of facts only it's about the art form, acting, techniques and if it's not distorting the facts completely then it should be okay.
    Now what is the truth, no one really knows...
    Everyone are good for someone and bad for someothers, all kings with some ambition were cruel to many masses, they used to conquer, kill, rape and use ppl. They ruled as they seemed fit...many raided other territories including the Marathas, Tippu, Cholas, Guptas, everyone...that was the way of Life then.
    What is treated as greatness or what defined greatness in those times were whether they ruled a massive territory or whether they were feared and respected by the majority... whether they commissioned great art and architecture during their reign...whether their Cities were renowned and multi cultural and that was the norm...in that aspect India had many great kings and Akbar was one of them.
    So if u say some king was cruel then including Ashoka they were all cruel to someone at some point...and no one is great...anyone with power over masses tend to use it.. against them...that's the fact.
    Depiction should not be biased that's true, and to an extent i can understand what's she sayn but i think she is also biased...

    Movies are about entertainment. Not about the "truth". Watch movies for entertainment. If you want to know the truth READ the right books.
    People who watch movies and accept them as historical fact need therapy.

    The truth is women had a hard time in the past. They had no rights whatsoever. Be it Jodha or Umrao Jaan or Mastaani or Mumtaaz Mahal.

    No offence whatsoever
    The lady also wasnt present during Akbar's time.
    So framed opinion based on a subjective narrative can be ignored.
    Thats why history podcast are worst.
    Limelight hoggers are those who come up with a new version of every story which only they have red.
    Since none of us were present during those days, conclusion cant be framed like that.

    Problem with biopics in India is that they need a big hero or actor to helm the project and then paint the subject as a hero as well. No one is willing to engage with a no holds barred, all shades depiction of truth and reality. But I don't blame the filmmakers also because someone somewhere always takes offence.
