In this episode of Palaces Of India, presented by Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, Dino Morea & Zoya Afroz get exclusive access inside the royal world of the Konkan coast. From 270-year-old secret chambers and royal thrones to fierce hunting trophies and the roaring energy of a traditional Maratha mehfil, this is a side of Maharashtra’s royalty very few people have ever seen. This lineage doesn’t just hold history—it predates the Maratha Empire itself. Today, the young Prince and Princess, trained at the Culinary Institute of America in New York, have returned home to blend international techniques with hand-written, 1700s royal recipes. What you’ll see in this episode: Inside the private residence of the Sawant Bhonsle royal family. The untold story of a Maratha lineage that existed before Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Fierce history: The Darbar Hall where royal Ranis hunted black panthers. The sacred 400-year-old Dashavatar Ganjifa art game played with avatars of Gods. A taste of royalty: Experiencing a traditional, gluten-free Konkani Thali and legacy recipes like the Sunthi Gola. The mesmerizing, high-energy roar of a live Royal Mehfil with Dhol, Tasha, and Lezim. How Sawantwadi Palace beautifully blends European elegance with raw Maratha craftsmanship.
