Chandraprakash Dwivedi said, “Yes, we have resumed Prithviraj shoot at YRF studios and the entire team is excited to have a great shooting schedule.” He added, “Sonu Sood has also started shooting from the 10th. Talking about resuming the shoot of Prithviraj, director Dr. Sanyogita is a dream role for me and I’m doing my best to do justice to the responsibility that has been entrusted on me.”Īkshay Kumar started shooting for the film on October 12. Talking about her Bollywood debut in Prithviraj, Manushi Chhillar has previously said, “It is a huge honour for me and I’m giving my everything and working really hard to try and get a lot of love and appreciation from audiences when my film releases. Manushi posted a picture on Instagram from her make-up room. She now heads into an intense shooting schedule of the film. She put in hours every day to rehearse for the same.
Sometime later, Prithviraj rebelled against the Afghan king, and was killed for treason. This is corroborated by numismatic evidence: some coins issued by Prithviraj from the Delhi mint feature his own name as well as the name of Muhammad on the reverse.ĭespite factual errors, Prithviraj and Sanyogita’s love saga has found resonance among masses over centuries and is part of folklore in India.Manushi Chhillar wanted to know the scenes of Prithviraj like the back of her hand before the shoot began. Some historians are of the view that Muhammad Ghori planned to reinstate him as a Ghurid vassal. This folklore however is not supported by historical evidence as Ghori went on to rule for 10 years after Prithviraj’s death. Shortly after, Prithviraj and Chand Bardai killed each other and it is believed that the rest of the account was written by Bardai’s son, Jalhan, who was also a witness to the war.
Bardai persuaded Ghori to organise an archery competition.ĭuring the event, Prithviraj shot an arrow sensing Ghori’s voice that instantly killed the Afghan ruler. Apparently, Prithviraj was a master marksmen who could shoot arrows with his eyes closed. This time Bardai, the court poet, himself hatched a plan to kill Ghori. The king was subsequently captured and blinded by Ghori’s soldiers. According to Chand Bardai’s account, Chauhan refused to bow his head before Ghori after defeat. The 12th-century love saga, which was memorialized by court poet Chand Bardai in his epic poem Prithviraj Raso, was not compared with the love sagas of Sohni-Maliwal and Heer-Ranjha. What happened to Prithiviraj after his defeat is a matter of debate. The love saga of Chauhan ruler Prithviraj and Kannauj princess Sanyogita has not been told for centuries. A fierce battle ensued that resulted in Prithviraj’s defeat. With the support of the Rajput king, Ghori waged a war against with a well-equipped army of 120,000 Afghani, Tajik and Turkic horsemen. Jaichand could not take the insult and forged an alliance with Ghori, the Afghan ruler who had tasted defeat at the hands of Chauhan. He suddenly sprang from behind the statue, took Sanyogita up in his arms and whisked her away to Delhi. As it turned out, Prithviraj was hiding behind the statue. On the day of the ceremony, Sanyogita walked past all the kings and princes, ignoring all of them, and put the garland around the neck of Prithviraj’s statue.
When Prithviraj heard about the Swayamvara, he devised a plan to elope with the princess. To rub salt into the wound, Jaichand then commissioned a clay statue of Prithviraj and installed it as a dwarpal (doorman). To insult Prithviraj, Jaichand planned Sanyogita’s Swayamvara and decided against inviting Prithviraj. This ignited an enmity between the two kings. To assert his supremacy over other kingdoms, Jaichand decided to do a Rajsuya Yagya, however, Prithviraj refused to accept his supremacy. However, before they could marry, Prithviraj and Jaichand’s relation soured due to the rivalry between their kingdoms. The same painter painted Sanyogita’s portrait and showed it to Prithviraj. It is said that they fell in love when a painter from Prithviraj’s court, Panna Ray, visited Kannauj and showed his painting of the king to the princess. Prithviraj too was mesmerized by the tales of Sanyogita’s beauty. She is said to have fallen in love with Prithviraj and desired nobody else but the king. Soon, tales of his conquests reached the ears of Sanyogita, the daughter of Kannauj’s king Jaichand who was known for her bewitching beauty. According to Prithviraj Raso, Prithviraj gained a reputation for his valour and chivalry.
