'Koi bhi yuddh jitne ke liye shastra nahi, saahash ki jaroorat hain.' 'Jisse haar ne ka koi darr nahi, jeet uske aur kareeb hote hain.' When there was chaos and darkness everywhere, a Maratha Warrior brought back the light with the vision of 'Swaraj' and he was none other than Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Subedar Tanhaji was his right hand. Aurangzeb wanted to conquer entire India. 'Ek Hindu Raja ko aur ek doosre Hindu Raja se larhwa diya.' When Shivaji got caught, then, as per a treaty, the Mughals conquered 23 forts, out of which the Kondhana Fort had more significance. Beshaq Khan humiliated Shivaji's mother and ordered her to leave the Kondhana Fort. 'Tere bulaave ka intezaar karungi, aye Maa Bhawani.' Jish ke sarh ke upar hain Mahadev ka AASHIRVAAD; usse koi kaise kar sakta hain BARBAAD. Har har Mahadev. 'Phir se ekbaar bhagvaa leherayega ish qiley pe.' 'Aye Shankara ! Aye Shankara !'
Komal did not marry Udaybhan due to caste difference. Udaybhan left Rajputana Kingdom to join the Mughal Army. Due to attacks on Dhulikhet by the Mughals, Komal became a widow and got abducted by Udaybhan. 'Pehla pyar bada zaalim hota hain.' Tanhaji became angry on Shivaji, but why ? 'Aap ke aur ek bete ko joota pehena ne ka absar dijiye.' Aurangzeb ordered Udaybhan to make Kondhana, the capital of South India. Par 'Sapera', apne 'Nagin' ke saath kaun se raaste se aa raha hain ! 'Subedar ji, aap ke saath dhokha huya hain.' Shirdon ! 'Yah nadi kahaan tak jaati hain.' There is a hidden route ! 'Andha hoon, par azaadi toh main bhi dekhna chahta hoon.' 'Aisi kutton ki zindagi zeene se toh accha hain ki, sher ki maut marein.' Traitors of both the camps got killed. Maratha warriors were expert in guerilla warfare. They utilized the hidden route to reach inside the Kondhana Fort.
The Mughals were too cruel on Marathas. 'Lagaan nahi toh jaayegi Jaath, Jaath nahi toh jaayegi Jaan.' Komal followed her Rajput brother's instructions. 'Maine unki aankhon mein ek naya itihaas rachte huye dekha hain.' Who promised to whom that Raiba's marriage will be done even if the Subedar fails to remain alive in the battle of 'Swaraj'. 'Kalyan darwaza kabja ho gaya !' Udaybhaan understood the threat, that's why, tried to fire the cannon ball towards Rajgad fort. Shivaji marched towards Kondhana. The 'Swaraj' got re-established in Kondhana Fort after killing Udaybhaan. The dream of conquering entire India remained as a dream only, for Aurangzeb. Shivaji's eyes was in tears as he lost a great Maratha Warrior. Shivaji himself took the charge to complete the wedding ceremony of Raiba. Savitri kept her beloved husband's last wish and in a mirror, could see the reflection of the soul of her "TANHAJI".
