The Sword of Tipu Sultan

The Sword of Tipu Sultan is a fictional semi historical drama that was first broadcast on the DD National in February 1990. Based on a novel by Bhagwan Gidwani, this drama is a fictional portrayal of the life and times of Tipu Sultan, the 18th century ruler of Mysore. While the series was widely praised for its casting and grandeur, it also attracted wide criticism for whitewashing the history and misrepresenting Tipu Sultan as a benevolent and tolerant ruler.
