                              Mee Radhika- Book 3                                 The Starry Night At Shaniwarwada "Don't pay attention to Shrimant's mother. Nobody and nothing can harm shrimant. You know how he fought both Sindkheda and Udgir battles. But if you don't do shringar then he'll get angry with you." Radhikabai remembered that Shrimant Vishwasrao had sent half of the nation's silk sarees, gold jewelery, hair accessories and beauty products to her. He particularly took interest in her dressing and shringar. His aunt, Parvatibai, wife of Shrimant Sadashivrao knew that. Parvatibai was the most fashionable  of all Peshwa women. Along with being the only one to be trained in warfare and administration. She had the make-up and the defense kit with her. In her spare time, she would practice her defence l...

Chapter 4: Gopikabai Peshwa, The Politician "Fair in complexion, facial shape of a cut diamond and look of royalty. But Gopikabai Peshwa, did not treat him like one. Her purpose of getting pregnant and increasing the number of children was more, it seemed, to increase her clout." Madhavrao was little pale, having sort of fragile constitution. He was princely looking though but not as robust as his elder brother Vishwasrao Peshwa when was of his age. He was also a quiet child and obedient with curious honey dew eyes and having his nose inherited in right proportion from his mother and father. Undoubtedly, he had the Bhatt-Deshmukh stamp on his face. Fair in complexion, facial shape of a cut diamond and look of royalty. But Gopikabai, did not treat him like one. Her purpose of getting pregnant and increasing the number of children was more, it seemed, to increase her clout. The Young Shrimant Madhavrao I Peshwa Maybe in her mind, she thought having many children an...

The beautiful Parvatibai had a thin waist and killer smile Parvatibai Sadashivrao Peshwa: The Misunderstood Peshwe Woman I think to blame Parvatibai Peshwa has been a pretty unfair thing. One must also credit her for urging Savaai Madhavrao to write a letter to Bajirao ll for making him the Peshwa. After all, he was the one who encouraged the fiery Manikarnika to face the British fearlessly.   Parvatibai’s character has been destroyed by those who didn’t know that she found her way back home from Panipat on her own . Nobody helped her, she was also the one who urged the Dogra Rajputs to help her husband when everyone had turned their backs on him. Another fact is that, both she and Radhikabai - Shrimant Vishwasrao’s fiancee were trained in warfare and administration at AjinkyaTara by Chhatrapati. Therefore, they knew self-defense, the whole story of painting Parvatibai as a damsel in distress is done to save the skin of those who fled the field. The documents are ...

Radhikabai Peshwe, fiancee of Shrimant Vishwasrao Peshwe Radhikabai was not always deeply in love or even fond of her Shrimant Vishwasrao .  As a child, around the age of 6 years, she knew him as a blue-eyed boy who loved teasing her. Little Radhikabai was a proud girl , she didn't like anyone teasing her. So, she rebuffed  this little boy, who was 4 years older than her. However, Shrimant loved teasing her whenever he came to Satara where she stayed with her aunt. Chakuli would forget him in every six month's time. She would rebuff him, then when Shrimant would offer her dolls and guavas, she would mend her ways.  The young peshwa was always fond of her. She looked to him like a live doll that he always wanted. Therefore, he was always present to assist her.  Right from young age, he was gallant and respectful of the opposite gender. Hence, he easily impressed Radhikabai when she became 7 and half years old. The two kids began to stroll the mountains o...
