A warrior king whose courage echoes through history.
Unlike many Rajput rulers, Maharana Pratap never bowed to the Mughal emperor Akbar.

Chetak was not just a horse—he saved Maharana's life in the Battle of Haldighati by jumping across a river with an injured leg.
During exile, Maharana Pratap and his family survived on wild fruits and grass rotis—yet he refused to surrender.
After Haldighati, he built a secret capital in the Aravallis—Chavand, away from Mughal eyes.
Even Mughal historians never recorded Maharana Pratap's defeat—his valor was respected by enemies too.
