The Zari Patka in Delhi : A Talk by Uday S. Kulkarni

[@lalitmulay2851]

Mr.Uday Kulkarni has taken his inspiration from Mr.Ninad Bedekar who was a real historian , Engineer & Vice president in corporate group Cummins. He could understand the 3-4 languages spoken at the time from 16th century to 19th Century. He had decoded letters written at that time . The Marathi language which is spoken today or urdu language which is spoken today was completely different from 16th Century.

True. It's very common across a perticular caste of historian to avoid teaching or mentioning about what Chatrapati Sambhaji did. Actually due to ch. Sambhaji only Aurangzeb had to stayed back to MH for 27 years and still he couldn't finish Marathas. It's simple, if he could have done that, then he would have left to his own capital rather than staying back in south. He mentioned many times that he thought after Chatrapati Shivaji, he can try extending Mughal empire to Deccan, but he was so unfortunate that Chatrapati Sambhaji was even better than his father. Aurangzeb also mentioned that he would have been fortunate if any of his son could be as brave and thoughtful as of Chatrapati Shivaji's son.
