I doubt it. When a bunch of women (a harem of some king who worked fo Akbar) fell into Amar Singh's hands, he brought it to his father. Pratap became angry and told him to respectfully return each an every one of them to the king. The king was quite shocked and moved by this gesture of Pratap. US and RM are known lecherous men. So no questions about that.

Also Pratap had just 11 wives compared to his dad's whooping 22-25 ones. almost half in number. Its stated specifically in books that he married only to stop these women from being married to the Mughals as the means for forming a relation.

Think you for sharing the info.

I would just want to say that at those times, the marriageable age for girls was 13 or 14. Rarely any women crossed the 20 bar, let alone 25. So, Its weird that Rattan Punwar remained unmarried for 34 years... she would be considered completely unmarriageable. I think there is some thing wrong with the numbers.


Well you see age numbers are debatable, there is no concrete evidence of that. Some texts relate her ageas same to amar singh, that is why i said 20 years younger, but some texts quote her even younger, about 30 years younger than pratap. So, even i am not fully sure which to believe.

Even there are references of age of US and MP being 6-7 years younger than what is shown in show and on wikipedia.

But one thing is sure that she was married to pratap 2 years before death of ajabde in 1591.
