Prithviraj Chauhan to hit television
Prithviraj Chauhan ascended to the throne when he was just 13. He was fascinated by the beauty of Sanyogita, the daughter of the king of Kannauj, and whisked her away from her swayamwar, an act of derring-do celebrated through the ages.
In the 12th century, when Hindustan came under attack from Arab and Turkish invaders, Prithviraj Chauhan rose to power as the Rajput kings united under him to fight off an invasion by Mohammad Ghori.
Commending the efforts of the late Ramanand Sagar’s family -- the people behind the serial -- Vice-President Bhairon Singh Shekhawat asked them to consider making serials on other powerful personalities in Indian history like Rana Pratap and Chhattrapati Shivaji.
