More than five hundred years
after the Sufi poet Malik Muhammad Jayasi wrote his epic poem Padmavat, the
story of Padmavati, princess of Simhal and her lover and husband, Ratansen,
the king of Chittor, continues to capture the imagination of readers everywhere.
In Padmavat, we meet Padmavati’s friend, philosopher and guide—Hiraman—a
parrot, as well as Nagmati—Ratansen’s first wife and the brave Rajput
warriors, Gora and Badal. This tale of two women and their husband who are
tormented by Alauddin Khalji is a lyrical retelling of the story of
Rajasthani bards, using idioms and metaphors from both the world of Islam and
the Hindu Puranas. With Purushottam Agrawal’s deeply insightful commentary
and Devdutt Pattanaik’s incredible illustrations, Jayasi’s epic love story is
brought to life like never before and finally seen and appreciated for what
it is a remarkable ode to love, beauty and truth.
