Pictures of Shivaji #Statue at Bangalore / Bengaluru / #BashyamCircle, #SadashivNagar. #ChatrapatiShivaji and #Malleswaram #Bengaluru It is interesting to know that Shivaji had spent two years in Bangalore (from 1640 to 1642) and was married here. Shivaji later forcibly occupied his father Shahaji Bhonsle's #Bijapur #AdilShah-i Jahagir in 1677 and kept Kolar, Chikkaballapur, and Doddaballapur under his control, and gifted #Bangalore as "#Choli_Bangdi" (pin money) to #Ekoji's wife, #Deepabai. Ekoji or #VenkojiRaoBhonsle is remembered for his donation of #Medaraninganahalli for the maintenance of the #KaduMalleswara Temple - the temple, which gave its name to Malleswaram of today. Shivaji's death in 1680 and the Moghul conquest of the Bijapur kingdom in 1686 exposed the southern states to the Moghuls.
