On 2 March 1700, the thirty-year-old Rajaram died following a brief illness. Sources differ on Queen Janakibai's death. Some records say that she committed Sati with her husband at Sinhagad. However Marathi bakhars and letters reveal that Jankibai was one of the captives taken during the
Battle of Raigad along with Maharani
Yesubai Bhonsale and
Shahuji. She was released in 1719 from the
Mughal captivity by Peshwa
Balaji Vishwanath along with
Yesubai and other
Maratha women. ==References==
