It begins to dawn on nine-year-old Sambhaji that his father has fled from Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and left him behind. He now has to find his way home with the help of strangers... Under the shadow of a renowned father, Sambhaji is thrown into the Maratha-Mughal conflict from a young age. His mistakes cost him dearly, and when his father suddenly dies and he becomes the chhatrapati, it's like inheriting a crown of thorns. Over the next nine years, he fights a constant battle-internally, as palace intrigues threaten his life, and externally, as Aurangzeb advances into the Deccan with his army. Even Shivaji had never faced such outright Mughal aggression. Can he protect the Maratha nation and Swaraj, his father's dream? Will he prove himself a worthy son in life and death? Though history has often been unkind to Sambhaji, it cannot deny that he inspired a generation of Maratha warriors who ultimately ended Aurangzeb's jihad.
