oh thank u, so that info is correct as per the serial dat bhimdev marries shobhna's cousin but why is it given dat chaula isn't a princess.uff this history bhi na leaves us with so many doubts but still like it😊

actually shobnas father was elder and he should be real king but due to his handicapped ness the crown was given to her dada so in real shobna was princess but not chjaula and zee even mentioned abt chaula in their face book wall that she is the cousin of shobna and they both are good friends

and even it is sad that she was popular at place of narmada and till today the people there remember her

its ok m l'il bsy so given u direct links of all books related to this

Thanks, will try to find out more if still Shobhna remains a mystry, then may be we can ask Zee, through IF, to give us some source & references about Shobhna, but before that will try from our side.😊

what we all must understand is that what history we have been made to read has been modified and remodified by the rulers-mostly invaders like khiljis,britishers since we were under a long rule by many invaders.so genuine history is a question.But what i am happy is that atleast some unsung heroes forgotten in the indian history can be seen through such serials-its really awe inspiring when we watch little shobha and her daring antics.

it was 1178 A.D when prc in the age of 13 defeated bhimdev solanki...and in 1026 A.D when mahmud destroyed somnath...the bhimdev solanki of ssk was the crowned king...ssk bhimdev was ancestor of prc bhimdev...and somnath temple was reconstructed by prc bhimdev...

i think u r ryt, i never thot abt dis..ye 100 yrs ka difference to main bhul hi gayi thi.!!

@ sahasra:
thanx 4 d info on bhimdev & prc..prc show me to sab kuch ulta hi dikhya tha, i used to watch it, but left it latr on coz d show was distorting history unnecessarily.

I've got the book Somnath by Acharya chatursen Shastri- The show SSK is based on this story, as per the title credit appearing in the begining of SSK. As per this book, Shobhna was a balvidhva, brahmin girl,her father Krishna Swami one of the adhikari in Somnath temple. Chaula was, chief dancer Ganga's daughter, later revealed to be Dadda Chalukya's daughter. Later on Shabhna lives with Chaula as her close friend.

honestly i never found any reference of Shobha in any historical book dat i hv read till date, so i really dont hv any idea abt her..i hv to depend on dis show & d info dey present us..on d contrary, i read dat Mahmud of Ghazni destroyed d Somnath Temple in 1026 & latr it was reconstructed by d king BhimDev Solanki ( PRC fans will remember him ) !!

yea there may not be any reference, but myths are usually based on some truth, and the history from the early 1000s is not recorded well in Bharat...after all history is written by the victors, and so thats why there is not a lot to go by...😉

Thanks 4 sharing the info Meenakshi...it's great👏
