The Rider of Blue Horse (Neele Ghore ka Sawar) is a novel based on the sparkling and heroic life of globally well-known Maharana Pratap of Mewar, who fought a long war with the unequal mighty army of Mughal Emperor Akbar, who wanted to bow down Mewar. Maharana Pratap lit a light of freedom, pride, and self-respect among the people of Mewar, inspiring the nation's struggle for freedom in the time to come. The author has successfully attempted to describe how a great hero of a nation, a great son of the soil like Maharana Pratap, attempts to thwart the mighty foreign forces who were ready to succumb to the freedom and pride of Mewar. The author approaches such gallant psyche and internal conflict while facing the struggle from a different angle, which has never been described anywhere else with such minute details. He also exposes the dual character of the Emperor and his Turk and Rajput Mansabdars side by side, making the novel much more interesting for the readers.
