Aurangzeb Alamgir: Hero Ya Villain? Woh Sach Jo Chupaya Gaya
He ruled half the world. Yet he stitched caps to pay for his own shroud.
Was Aurangzeb Alamgir a hero or a villain? In this video, I won't hand you a verdict. I'll show you the full story, from his lonely childhood as a prisoner at age 8 to the war of succession, the fall of Dara Shikoh, the confinement of Shah Jahan, the 27-year Deccan war, and the heartbreaking last letters he wrote to his sons.
