In 2006, India's first 3D documentary movie "Rajmata Gayatri Devi's Legacy", based on her life, was made by the students of Arena Multimedia in Jaipur. Rajmata herself inaugurated the movie through the medium of a digital art exhibition on 16th of November 2006.
Gayatri Devi was related to a number of other royal families in India, and not only the Rajput royals.
Maharani Gayatri Devi lived life to the full. With no regrets. There won't be another like her! In fact, Princess Diya Kumari of Jaipur, Maharaj Bhawani Singh's daughter says, “She'll be an eternal legend. She was a great influence to the women of Jaipur. She was the first woman of substance and style of her generation. The world bowed to her beauty. Indeed, she was a people's Princess.”
Her story was almost fairytale, of how Ayesha metamorphosed into Rajmata Gayatri Devi. She loved talking about her childhood. Her tales were always endless and there was always a lesson in her stories. She talked about the days of innocence as a child in Cooch Behar, the first blush of love, of how she was taught to behave like a Maharani after she married Jai Singh, the Maharaja of Jaipur and the loneliness of losing her family members one after the other. reports toiLabels: Latest, Rajasthan, update |
