My Idol











Raja Shivaji and Emperor Aurangazeb
.

I attribute my existence to Raja Shivaji as he was a great ruler who started with a scratch and built an empire on the basis of his courage, intellect, determination and persistent nature.

He did all this in a short span of his 50 years of life. He left a mark on the history of World.

As a Commander-in-Chief, ruler, King and Thinker he was unparalleled in the history of world. As a "Marathi manoos" I owe him my life.

What Maharashtra is today is because of Raja Shivaji.

At his time Mughal Empire was the biggest empire in the world. Aurangazeb had to struggle hard to become a ruler.

He was a fearless man, possessed a transparent character and deadly strategist.

His simplicity as an emperor is unparalleled till this date. He had a clarity of goal, understanding the nature of power and ruthlessness at times was his strength which and I admire and cherish.

He was one of his kinds in history of world and the great emperors of his time. Though people dislike him, very few know him and understand him.

Raja Shivaji was the only ruler of his era who understood Aurangazeb and defeated him strategically in the long run.
