It's so amazing that the Maharaja hired a Muslim craftsman or mason. This mason must be one of his loyal subjects. As the Maharani has described, his descendant Sadik is still serving the royal family. It also looks like there was nobody there who was able to read the Urdu script.

11:28 That Maharaja was on the sigma grindset before it was cool.

[@reedhamkalariya6976]

Yeah I think it was Bhagwatsinhji Maharaja of Gondal. A true gentleman and servor of his pupils. This story is interesting but less about eccentricity and more about his national pride tho (he went to showroom wearing a dhoti I think).

Fascinating story. That palace has seen better days. It is literally stripped of area carpets furnishings etc. It’s also very dirty abs unrestored. It appears that they have lost a lot of money. The photo is montage in his style as he has done with the other families. It’s a bit dramatic to bring the cursed Sati story to life with symbols and a death plane model. It worked however as messy as it all was. Entropy seems to be a part of his staging of all these photo shoots.

[@jyotsanasingh4315]

Woah....loved it. I have heard the story of Maharaja who bought 23 Rolls royce & how he used them, by my father..

The family just gorgeous. Beautiful

I'm a professional photographer and that's one brilliant portrait!

[@floursandroses]

I absolutely loved this documentary and all of the work that the photographer put into building the props, finding the right set location to take the picture, where to place each person and why, and even choosing the right lens. When he said he must place the young boy upfront not just he was small, but because he was the future of the family is brilliant. I could tell the photographer really wanted to make sure he had shown respect to the royal family and has so much dedication for his work. It was absolutely beautiful!

Funfact: Raja Udaibhan Rathore of Tanaji fame was the head of Bhinai. Unlike shown in the movie, he was an honorable who died performing his knightly duties of defending the fort.
