Chatrapathi Shivaji Maharaj, as he was called, he conducted a digvijaya by attacking Mughal encampments in Berar and Kandesh.
But when Sambhaji's son, Shahu was released (1707) from Mughal captivity and gained support from the Maratha elite, a civil war ensued in Maharashtra, and Tarabai set up a separate gadi (throne) at Panhala (Kolhapur).
A palace revolution (1714), removed Shivaji II and Tarabai declared Sambhaji (1698-1760), second son of Rajaram, the Chhatrapati of Kolhapur, which the Shahu finally recognised by the Treaty of Warna (1731).

 Hindutva Series : Hindu History - National Revival and the Liberation of India by the Marathas
The story of Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj and of his Marathas is that of a subjugated and tormented people who rose against the oppression of their tormentors and brought the barbaric Muslim occupying forces to their knees.
The news of this battle and the passing away of Murar Baji and the long drawn siege along with the destruction of the countryside forced Shivaji to reach out for a compromise with Jai Singh in the interests of the sufferring population of Maharashtra.
This increased the confidence Shahu had in him and he appointed Balaji Viswanath as his representative to negotiate with Kanhoji Angre, the Admiral of the Maratha Navy, who was at that time with Shahu's rival Tarabai.
