| This story revolves around the intense love
story of the ruler of Hyderabad — Mohammed Quli
Qutb Shah and dancer Bhagmati. Bhagmati, according
to legends that abound, was a dancer and devotee
of Shiva. Prince Quli Qutb Shah saw the beautiful
while returning from a shikaar and fell in love
with her at first sight.She was a Hindu and a
commoner by birth so his father, the king
disapproved of the match. When the prince was
prevented from meeting his beloved and kept under
house arrest he crossed the barriers in his fort,
swam across the Moussi river on a stormy night to
keep his promise to Bhagmati. After seeing this
the king not only gave him permission to meet
Bhagmati but also built a bridge across the river
for the prince’s safe journey to the other
end.The prince later married her. It’s even said
that the prince named his city Bhagyanagar -which
was later changed to modern-day Hyderabad. | | |
