Even in those circumstances, Chhatrapati Sambhaji maharaj did not bow in front of the Mughals and bravely refused to convert to Islam. In such a difficult and critical situation, fiercely guarding the Maratha Kingdom, and bravely fighting and defeating the Mughals, was the self respected and brave "MAHARANI YESUBAI" who was the wife of Chhatrapati Sambhaji maharaj.
