The 500-year-old saga of courage, faith and valour of the Karamsot Rathores remains unparalleled.
Kesariya: An Ode to the Karamsot Rathores of Kheenvsar brings to life the extraordinary story of one of Marwar’s most distinguished Rajput lineages.
Descendants of the mighty Rashtrakuta kings—whose prowess once thundered across central and southern India—the Rathores became the very heart and soul of Marwar, their blood fortifying the towering walls of Mehrangarh.
In 1523 CE, Rao Karamsiji, the ninth son of the legendary Rathore king, Rao Jodha, founded the kingdom of Kheenvsar (Khimsar). Guided by a divine calling and a warrior’s resolve, he began the indelible legacy of the Karamsot Rathores. Spanning twenty-one generations, the Karamsots are among the world’s only Rajput dynasties with an unbroken line of descent.

A living legacy of valour
