This historical novel has created history in the world of literature and books. Shivaji Maharaj is the most worshipped person in Maharashtra. Every single household here knows Shivaji. He is the most respected and worshipped character. He was a dream come true. Shivaji was born as a Hindu but at such time when Hinduism was forgotten by the Hindus. In his novel Ranjit Desai pictures Shivaji from his birth rather he starts with the days prior to his birth. Before writing this novel Desai has searched history, he has not left any stone unturned while doing so. Writing on Shivaji was a very difficult task. Shivaji had many qualities and the last 34 centuries have changed people`s view about him. They have become more possessive about him adding unnecessarily, and untruthfully to his qualities considering him a god. On this background it was very difficult to portray Shivaji as perfect as possible Desai had realised his responsiblity. He has pictured Shivaji metaculously in this novel. Religious but not superstitious, strict but not wicked, adventurous but not impetuous, practical but not aimless, realistic, visionary but not dreamy. Graceful but not prodigal. Desai has succeeded in highlighting Shivaji`s human nature. His base was that of a human. He valued all, respected every religion. He was an expert commander. He awakened the love for motherland in the sleeping mind, of people. He ignited their confidence. While describing this, Desai has brought many of Shivaji`s qualities into limelight. Shivaji was a noble king but he was a nobleman. He also had his own suffereings. He lost many, but his first preference was his motherland. As we go on reading we get involved in the book so much that we live each moment and when Desai ends the novel we feel that \"WE` have lost Shivaji.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827307114814,"sku":null,"price":795.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/2_58ec28d2-71f0-42ea-ab88-4bb2db6bb47c.jpg?v=1680007037"},{"product_id":"he-bandh-reshmache-by-ranjeet-desai","title":"He Bandh Reshmache By Ranjeet Desai","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"tabbable\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"pane1\" class=\"tab-pane active\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabbable bookdetailtabber\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"pane2\" class=\"tab-pane active\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eशराब, सत्ता आणि पैसा यांची नशा चढली, तर केव्हानाकेव्हा ती उतरते; पण ही धर्माची नशा. तिच्यासारखी बुरी चीज नाही. तिची परीक्षा घेऊ नये, श्री.... धर्म का वाईट? कोण म्हणतो? धर्म निष्पाप, अजाण असतो. माणुसकीचं बोट धरून धर्म चालतो, तेव्हा पृथ्वीवर स्वर्ग अवतरल्याचा भास होतो. पण नुसत्या धर्माचं बोट धरून माणूस जेव्हा चालायला लागतो, तेव्हा स्वर्गाचा नरक बनायला फारसा वेळ लागत नाही. पाठीशी घेतलेली चीजवस्तूच नव्हे, पण बरोबरची माणसंसुद्धा कडेपर्यंत सुखरूप पोहोचत नाहीत.... फाळणीच्या पाश्र्वभूमीवर दोन मित्रांच्या अतूट मैत्रीवर साकारलेलं नाटक!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane active\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\nOne is bound to return to sobriety some time or the other, after the inebriating high of alcohol, power, or money wanes.

It brought a devastating change in the society. For hundred years, the society had developed a particular system, based on it everything was running smoothly. But this law shattered every thing in everbody`s life. The effect on the slow and sleeping minds was devastating. It resembled the barren land which was ploughed for the first time. Everything was centred around the land and everything changed. The Inamdars, the Watandars, Peasants, Poojari, Bara Balutedars, Desais, Deshmukhs, Deshpandes, Kulkarni, Khots all were shaken in good terms as well as bad terms. Laboures who were living in big cities had saved amount over years, had bought land in villages, had given it to the peasants for cultivation, they also lost it to the peasants because of the Act. These were the days when everything around was changing fast. The democracy changed India in many ways. The reformation was taking place all over, in all classes and masses, and at all levels. The most shattered was the Joint family systems in the villages. The Tenancy Act gave rise to division that of house, that of land and that of human beings. There were disputes between all possible relations. Nobody was spared. Fatherson, brotherbrother, families lost their love against the lust. The rural life suffered heavily. Their life was shattered beyond measures. These changes are penned down in the two long stories PeraUgawala \u0026amp; Pandhur Uthali.

It is a sort of consort of something else. Human life is based on certain beliefs and values. Literature is based on these very beliefs and values. But an author’s own experiences and his vision of Life is not enough for the birth of literature. He is not just a presenter of realty. It is not as if every aspect of reality appeals to him. Some things touch him deeply and awaken his mind. It is such a mind, primed by a personal insight into reality that created literature when it is touched by idealism. The rays of the sun falling upon the surface of water do not produce a rainbow. It is only when the rays, reflected by the clouds pass through the myriad droplets of dew in the atmosphere, that we see the brilliant hues of the rainbow. When reality gets the magical touch of idealism, only then literature reaches a different dimension…!

While doing so it observes other animals, their habits, their efforts to find food, their helplessness while struggling to stay alive.
