Biography
Biography
He asked his wife, Hadi Rani, for some memento to take with him to the battlefield. Thinking that she was an obstacle to him doing his duty for Mewar, she cut off her head and put it on a plate. A servant covered it with a cloth and presented it to her husband. Devastated but nevertheless proud, the commander tied the memento around his neck by its hair and after their rebellion ended, he got to his knees and cut his neck, having lost the desire to live. A Beautiful Poetry Book, defining that love, and sacrifice of Sahal: Hada Rani, is written by Dany Solanki, an epic love story. "She had long, knee-length hair and always tied it in a single braided ponytail. After cutting off her head, the commander picked it up, lifted it by the long braided ponytail, and tied it around his neck as a necklace."
