Two claims about Maharani Radhika Raje Gaekwad of Baroda went viral recently. The first is that Forbes declared her the most beautiful woman among all Indian royals. The second is about her leaving behind a royal life to become a Jain Sadhvi. In the accompanying video, a woman wearing a white sari is being tonsured in what looks like a religious ceremony. The Maharani had refuted both these claims on Twitter. The identity of the woman in the clip remains unknown.
