Sinhagad Fort Pune

Sinhagad (Kondhana)

 The Lions Fort

 One of the most famous battles on Sinhgad was fought by Subhedar Tanaji Malusare, of the Maratha Empire in order to recapture the fort on March 1670.

A battle ensued between Tanaji and his men versus the Mughal army headed by Udaybhan Singh Rathod, a Rajput sardar who had control of the fort. Tanaji Malusare lost his life, but his brother Suryaji took over and captured the Kondana fort, now known as Sinhagad

Tanaji with 300 soldiers marched to capture the Sinhagad fort in 1670. ... The battle was fought fiercely and Tanaji was killed by Udaybhan. His uncle, Shelar, took command of the battle after Tanaji's death and killed Udaybhan. Finally, the fort was captured by the Marathas

Shivaji Maharaj expressed his remorse with the words,

 "Gad aala, pan Sinha gela" - "The Fort is conquered, but the Lion was lost".

Maratha Samrajya Lost A Brave Lion That Day.
