Established author and organic farmer, Royina Grewal and Rupa Publications, launched, Babur: Conqueror of Hindustan by Royina Grewal in the national Capital. Salman Khurshid and Malvika Singh along with other prominent names were present. Babur, being her only work of fiction, is conceived as the first book to the trilogy of Mughal emperors.

<g data-gr-id="26">Royina</g> narrates the story of the first Mughal emperor, Babur, as a poet, writer, lover, aesthete and an inspiring general. <g data-gr-id="27">Royina’s</g> tale starts on the eve of the Battle of Panipat. 

The Author has recreated the character of Babur as an emperor who was accessible and inspiring.

<g data-gr-id="28">Royina</g> whose earlier works have revolved around nature and environment said, “There is a lot that has been written about Babur, the warrior. But I remember thinking that a warrior could not have built something so beautiful and verdant as these gardens. I wanted to recreate a Babur who was more approachable and was exciting. A father, a husband and more importantly – a human being. 

This book combines many human aspects like fictional history, love story, family drama making it a page turner.”

Royina Grewal is an established author, she is well known for books like Sacred Virgin, Travels along the Narmada, In Rajasthan: A Travelogue as well as The Book of Ganesha. Her recent book, Babur is her first work of fiction and also a start to the trilogy on <g data-gr-id="25">mughal</g> emperors. 

For a year, Baburnama - Babur’s autobiography has been <g data-gr-id="29">Royina’s</g> bible. Her interest in the emperor started from her love for Babur gardens where she enjoyed many evening walks.
