This actress married Maharaja, was 'killed', her son was beheaded; her spirit still 'haunts' Jodhpur palace
Actress Zubaida Begum and Maharaja Hanwant Singh's story is infamous in history as a tragic tale. While it is said that they died in a plane crash, some believe their deaths were part of a conspiracy.
In 2001, a film titled Zubaida was made on her life, written by her son Khalid Mohammed. The film suggested a different reason for her death. To this day, the mystery of their deaths remains trapped within the walls of the Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, where some claim to sense her presence as they say her spirit still haunts the royal families.

I thought the eponymous role was enacted marvellously by Karisma Kapoor; a pity that she lost out on the National Award for Best Actress to Raveena Tandon for Daman. It seems Karisma and Tabu in Astitva were the lead contenders for the award, but at the last hour, the jury decided otherwise.
Be that as it may, I set out last month on a trip to Rajasthan for the umpteenth time, to collect as much information as I could on my real-life mother. I was two years old when she passed away in a plane crash with her second husband, Maharaja Hanwant Singh of Jodhpur. She was all of 19 years old at the time.
The story of Zubeida is complicated, for sure. The screenplay of Zubei
