Famous Rajasthani heroine is known as ‘Veer Hadi Rani’ is Salah Kanwar.
She was a daughter of a Hada Chauhan Rajput married to a Chundawat chieftain of Salumbar in Mewar.
Chundawat was newly married and he was going to fight the battle with Aurangzeb.
He asked his wife, Hadi Rani, for some memento to take with him to the battlefield.
Thinking that she was an obstacle to his doing his duty for Mewar, she cut off her head and put it on a plate
A servant covered it with a cloth and presented it to her husband. Devastated but nevertheless proud, the commander tied the memento around his neck by its hair.
He fought bravely, making the Aurangzeb forces flee, and after his victory, he got to his knees and cut his neck, having lost the desire to live.
