Descripción

There is a myth spread around in Indian history books - Mughals were great and invincible. Today I will take you to the mystical land of Assam where a great general defeated them not once but seventeen times. We will see how CEO level thinking and Vietnam level defense discipline led the Mughal general to say: "Anyone who comes to war against Ahoms, must be thrashed by a broomstick".

Peshwa Baji Rao - Part 1

We all know the fantastic exploits of Napoleon sometime in late 1700s. We have also been taught about Admiral Nelson and courage in meeting Napoleon's challenge on the seas. In this episode, we're going to meet someone who was greater than Napoleon in land conquests and military strategy and more cunning than Nelson when countering sea facing powers. The name of this personality is Peshwa Baji Rao - one of the finest sons of Bharat. Although his life was only of 40 years, his exploits are so numerous and audacious that one episode cannot fully capture them. In this episode we will see Baji Rao arrive on the stage of Bharat amidst fighting Martahas, Mughals and Siddis. Hopefully, the episode is able to convince you that Baji Rao was no ordinary Peshwa - he was a prodigy born solely to subdue Mughals and usher in the age of Marathas.
