Get The Entire Serial Here : thegreatmaratha.wikispaces.com Watch the entire series here : www.youtube.com The Great Maratha, Directed/Produced by Sanjay Khan, aired on DoorDarshan sometime in the mid 1990's. It was a magnum opus based on life of mighty Maratha general, Mahadji Shinde. Mahadji was instrumental in re-instating the Maratha power in north India after Maratha debacle in Third battle of Panipat in 1761. His power also kept the emerging British power at bay for more than two decades. Ripped from the 10 DVD set of this serial which I bought recently. I shall upload more clip as time passes.
