‘It is time my queen,’ said a voice. A silent wave of dread crashed upon her soul as Padmini realised that the final hour for her and Chittor had finally come... Queen Padmini’s life after marriage in Chittor, the capital of the Rajput Kingdom of Mewar, is rudely brought to a halt by the arrival of the Sultan of Delhi. Smitten by her beauty and obsessed with the desire to possess her, he lays siege to the city. As the Rajputs are pushed to the brink of destruction, Padmini faces a terrible decision – one that will determine the fate of her land, her people and her love. Set against the dramatic landscape of one of Rajasthan’s most famous forts in the 14th century, The Lotus Queen blends fact and fiction and weaves together a tale of love, friendship and courage in the face of extreme adversity.
