There's also a less than favorable review of Raj Hath.

Maharaja Daljit of Jagmere is displeased after his envoy, Rana Sangram Singh, is humiliated by Maharaj Baktawar of Satnapur who rejects the marriage proposal of the former's daughter with his son. Enraged, he instructs everyone in his region to stop all celebrations and prepare for war, while Baktawar is certain that victory is within reach as no one can penetrate the labyrinth that surrounds his kingdom. Then the Rajkumari herself dons the guise of a dancer/singer, manages to find her way around the labyrinth and returns home with the map. Daljit prepares to seek the blessings of Bhagwan Shri Shankar and plans to attack Satnapur after a week on a Tuesday - little knowing that nothing is going to go his way.

The video cleaned up nicely, but not the audio. Maybe half is okay, if not actually good. The rest varies between increasingly bad and unlistenable, particularly some of the songs. I checked the other versions here on YouTube and they all seem to have the problem of the audio being muddled, unclear and shrill in places.

Here's a playlist of the songs from Raj Hath:
