Islam and is out for the blood of all Hindus. The tyranny unleashed by him has earned him the title of ‘Kalapahar’. But what is driving this brutality? Is it vengeance for some past scorn? Around the same time, Chaitanyadeb’s Vaishnav movement caused a ripple in society.While Kalapahar is on a rampage destroying Hindu heritage all over Bengal, he faces resistance from a force led by Raja Birhambir who is the independent guardian of Mallabhumi and is putting up a strong defense against the Pathan army of Kalapahar. After night falls, Birhambir is known as Dakat Raja. Why so? Debarati Mukhopadhyay takes us on an enthralling deep dive into our glorious and rich history. Merging facts and fiction, the author has painted an imagery so real and vivid that it transports us all back to the sixteenth century. A compelling page-turner.
ষষ্ঠদশ শতাব্দী ৷ দিল্লিতে প্রবল প্রতাপশালী মোঘল সম্রাট আকবর, বাংলার সুবেদার সুলেমান কররাণী ৷ তাঁর জামাতা ইসলাম ধর্ম গ্রহণ করে হয়ে উঠেছে এক হিংস্র দানব, দুর্বিষহ করে তুলেছে হিন্দুদের জীবন ৷ সে ‘কালাপাহাড়’ ৷ কিন্তু কেন ? কোন অপমান, যন্ত্রণায় তার এই জিঘাংসা ? এর কিছুদিন আগেই প্রয়াত হয়েছেন চৈতন্যদেব ৷ তাঁর প্রবর্তিত বৈষ্ণবধারা ঘটিয়ে দিয়েছে সামাজিক বিপ্লব৷ এমনই এক পটভূমিতে বিধৃত উপন্যাস ‘ডাকাতরাজা’, যার নায়ক মল্লভূমের স্বাধীন প্রজাপালক রাজা বীরহাম্বীর ৷ আবার রাতের আঁধারে তিনিই নাকি ডাকাতরাজা ! কেন ?… কালাপাহাড় বিশাল বাহিনী নিয়ে ধবংস করেছে উত্তরবঙ্গ ও কামরূপ, এবার তার লক্ষ্য উৎকল! সে প্রতিশোধ নেবে! তারপর?…কালাপাহাড়ের পূর্বধর্মের দুই স্ত্রী, তারা কোথায় হারিয়ে গেল?… ছুটে আসছে কালাপাহাড়ের দুর্ধর্ষ পাঠান ফৌজ…এবার লক্ষ্য বিষ্ণুপুর! তারপর?… বিস্মৃতপ্রায় মল্লরাজ্যের এক রোমাঞ্চকর আখ্যান ৷
