Samudra Gupta
Samudra Gupta who is often referred to as the Napolean of India, was a well built and a strong man. His strength was such that while carrying two persons of normal built over his shoulders at a time he could climb up the walls of forts. Not only that, he was a highly skillful sword fighter and regarded as the best of his time. Apart from his skills on muscle power and sword fighting he was a fine Veena (lute) player, he is highly regarded for his mastery of Veena. Although, due to his Napoleanic image he is often seen as a conqueror yet he was highly appreciative of art & culture.
