Escape from Agra is a show that reveals the authentic story of how Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the founder of the Maratha Empire, outwitted the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and fled from his captivity in Agra.
Escape from Agra is based on the historical sources of Parkhal Das, who was designated clerk of Mirza Raja Jai Singh at Agra. Parkhal Das wrote daily updates of the situation through letters to Mirza Raja Jai Singh, who was sent by Aurangzeb to negotiate with Shivaji Maharaj and bring him to Agra. Shivaji Maharaj arrived in Agra with his son Sambhaji on May 12, 1666, but was insulted and imprisoned by Aurangzeb.
