The Peshwa Scion

The story of a 16 year-old boy who became the Prime Minister (Peshwa) and the executive head of the Maratha Empire. Yes, he was just 16 years old.

The burden of a mistake which he never committed.

Lust-filled enemies ready to draw his blood at his slightest weakness.

The responsibility of a vast Empire on his young shoulders.

The man who gave back millions their lost hope.

If not for his blessed birth or his unfortunate death, history would have begged to differ.

The Peshwa pugdi was placed on his head.

"I, Madhavrao Balaji Bhat, son of Late Peshwa Balaji Bajirao Bhat and grandson of Late Peshwa Bajirao Ballal Bhat, hold Lord Ganesha as a witness that I shall serve the Maratha Empire till my last breath."

"From today onwards you are the Peshwa of the Maratha Empire and you will be addressed as Shrimant Madhavrao Peshwe."

As the sun rays illuminated the right side of his face, he suddenly looked much older than 16.
