Raja Raja Chola: Tamilakam’s Greatest Emperor | Kamini Dandapani | Itihasdhir

Raja Raja Chola I (985–1014 CE) stands as one of India’s most legendary rulers, a visionary who transformed the Chola dynasty into a maritime superpower and a cultural beacon. From expanding his empire across South India and Southeast Asia to commissioning the majestic Brihadeeswarar Temple of Thanjavur, his reign was marked by both conquest and creativity. In this conversation with Kamini Dandapani, author of Raja Raja Chola: King of Kings, we explore the life, achievements, and enduring legacy of this great emperor. We dive into his role as a military strategist, temple-builder, patron of the arts, and the monarch who carried Tamil culture across oceans.
