Gayatri Devi of Cooch Behar (1919-2009) the princess from the east became the third wife of Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II of Jaipur. In a tradition-bound set-up she participated in religious ceremonies, played tennis with male partners, went swimming and horse riding, and did not miss a single season of polo. She also took it upon herself to bring the women of Rajasthan out of the purdah. Vogue voted her as one of the Ten Most Beautiful Women in the World. and with time, the world also witnessed her political courage and her dignified acceptance of life vicissitudes the los of her only child jagat, a five month ordeal in Tihar Jail under Mrs Indira Gandhi's regime. The Jaipurs were India's mid-century golden couple; its answer to the Kennedys, or Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Jai and Ayesha, as they were known to friends like Frank Sinatra, Truman Capote and Dickie' Mountbatten, entertained lavishly at their magnificent palaces and hunting lodges in Rajasthan--and in the nightclubs of London, Paris and New York. But as the Raj gave way to the new India, Jaipur--the most glamorous and romantic of the princely states--had to find its place.
