Bal Thackeray, who played a very important role on the political stage of Maharashtra, from making cartoons with a sentimental message, was a symbol of Marathi pride and Hindutva, whose warm spirit made him the Lord of Shiv Sainiks. The 86-year-old chief of the Shiv Sena was venerated as his Shiv Sainik Bhagwan and his opponents were always giving his friends and opponents a chance to underestimate him politically so that he changed the direction of Maharashtra's politics in every way. He can execute his intentions cleanly. He often preferred to be a kingmaker rather than taking on big responsibilities himself. For some, this lion of Maharashtra was a cultural ideal in itself. He was fully aware of its stature.
Bal Thackeray, who has the power to transform the financial capital of the country into a silence with a gesture of his finger, started his career as a cartoonist in the late 1950s in the English daily Free Press Journal with RK Laxman, but In 1960, he started a new path by launching the cartoon weekly 'Marmik'.
Bal Thackeray, who describes himself as an admirer of Adolf Hitler, created an army of Marathas in Maharashtra, which he used to provide jobs to Marathas in various textile mills and other industrial units. His efforts made him the 'Hindu heart emperor'.
The Shiv Sena soon took its roots and took over the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation in the 1980s with the support of the pro-Marathi mantra. Forging an alliance with the BJP in 1995 was the biggest opportunity in Thackeray's political life and it was on this basis that he tasted power for the first time.
Bal Thackeray's Famious slogans
"Bajao Pungi, Hatao Lungi"
"Shivrayanchi shapath tumhala, vijayi kara Shiv Senela"
"Bund ji ban gayee moti, Shiv Sena hamara sathi"

Sanjay Dutt On His Interview About Balasheb Thackeray
"I first heard about Balasaheb from my mother. She always said that Balasaheb is like my brother and I respect him a lot. Before going to America for the treatment of cancer, he called us brothers and sisters and said that you have any work at any time in your life, you can definitely go to my brother Balasaheb Thackeray"
He added
Sir (Balasheib) is the real tiger. They gave me a lot of affection. When I was in jail, I always received messages from Bala Saheb. "And he would say that I should not worry about anything." With these words, he gave me great courage and great support in fighting. He was a skilled kind politician, but he was more of a true patriot. If he loves someone, he will express it freely, whether that person is good or bad.
And he said that I should not worry about anything. "With these words, he supported Pine Tree State with good bravery and good fight."
