About The Book

Did Queen Soyrabai really poison Shiv Chhatrapati?
Was Sambhaji Maharaj truly at odds with his father Shivaji?
Did Shivaji abolish the Watandari system to spark a social revolution?

These and many other provocative questions form the core of this insightful Marathi book by Dr. Jaisingrao Pawar, a renowned historian and scholar of Maratha history.

In this compelling volume, the author boldly examines various controversies, legends, and misconceptions surrounding the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his legacy. From questioning historical narratives such as Shivaji’s caste origins, to diving into politically sensitive topics like the James Laine controversy, Dr. Pawar provides well-researched, analytical perspectives that challenge mainstream interpretations.

This book is a must-read for history enthusiasts, researchers, and critical thinkers who seek to explore the untold and often debated chapters of Shivaji Maharaj’s life, free from myth and prejudice. It offers clarity and a scholarly lens on social, political, and cultural dimensions of his time.
