Bajirao II (ruled 1796 - 1818) had classical singers, musicians, and dancers in his court.
Bajirao I (ruled 170 - 40), builder of the Maratha empire, was a great warrior and hunter, and fond of dancing.
Chhatrasal, the rajah of Bundelkhand, was pleased with Bajirao's heroic deeds and presented him with a beautiful dancing girl, Mastani, who, riding on horseback, went to wars by the side of Bajirao and became his consort.
