About the Scindia Dynasty: The Scindia dynasty, also known as the Shinde dynasty, ruled over Gwalior State in central India. It was founded by Ranoji Scindia, who initially served as a personal servant to Peshwa Bajirao I. The dynasty’s influence and prominence grew over time. However, in 1947, with India gaining independence from British colonial rule, the Scindia dynasty’s rule in Gwalior came to an end.
Mahanaryaman Scindia, Ananya’s brother, is the owner of the grand Jai Vilas Mahal, a 400-room palace in Gwalior with an estimated value of Rs 4,000 crore. The palace houses the world’s largest carpet, symbolizing the Scindia dynasty’s rich tradition and taste.
