A little About Gayatri Devi:

Gayatri Devi was considered as one of the most beautiful women in the world and a fashion icon.  In addition to the same, she was known for her style and charisma. At one point in time, she was listed among the ''World's Ten Most Beautiful Women'' by Vogue magazine.

The London-born princess of Cooch Behar was the third Maharani of Jaipur from 1939 to 1970 after her marriage to Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II. She entered active politics on an anti-Congress plank in 1962 when she founded the Swatantra Party in Rajasthan and won a landslide victory from Jaipur Lok Sabha seat the same year and again emerged victorious in 1971. She was lodged in Tihar Jail in Delhi during an Emergency. Gayatri Devi breathed her last at the age of 90 in 2009.
