I think it is in Satara and its owner is Udayanraje Bhosle who is vanshaj of Shivaji Maharaj. There were several Talwars used at different wars. One of the most important was 'Bhavani Talwar' which was looted by Britishers during their rule in India back in 1875. The Talwar is most likely kept at Queen's museum in UK.

Aurangzeb was not killed by anyone, He expired in a very good condition while he was praying, He was a very good human being but still people say bad about him for some political benefits
Shivaji Maharaj died April 3, 1680, due to fever and dysentery. There were rumors that he had been cursed by Jan Muhammad of Jalna, and that his second wife poisoned him.
Aurangzeb faced significant opposition from various leaders and groups during his reign. Notably, the Maratha king Shivaji and his successors, including Sambhaji and Shivaji II, led a strong resistance against Mughal domination in the Deccan. Additionally, the Sikh Guru Gobind Singh and the Jat chieftains also opposed Aurangzeb's policies, contributing to the decline of Mughal authority in India. The resistance movements were characterized by guerrilla warfare and the assertion of regional identities against Aurangzeb's centralized rule.
The son of Aurangzeb who sought the help of the Marathas against his father was Prince Akbar. Discontented with Aurangzeb's rule and policies, Akbar allied with the Marathas, led by Shivaji's successors, in a bid to challenge his father's authority. This alliance was part of a broader struggle for power within the Mughal Empire during Aurangzeb's reign.

At Agra a grand durbar was being held in the magnificent Diwan-i-Am in honor of Aurangzeb's birthday. Shivaji and Sambhaji attended the durbar to pay their respects to the Emperor. But Aurangzeb treated Shivaji with marked coldness and placed him in the rank of the commanders of 5,000 horsemen. The Maratha hero, who had so often humbled the pride of the Mughals, took this insult to heart. He complained bitterly in open durbar about Aurangzeb's breach of faith. The next day a strong guard of Mughal soldiers was placed round his house, and Shivaji became the Emperor's prisoner. An ordinary man would have given way to despair in such a situation. But Shivaji's wonderful resourcefulness came to his rescue. He feigned sickness and began to send regular presents of fruits and sweetmeats to Brahmins and other holy men in large wicker baskets, each of which was covered with flowers and was carried on a pole by two men. The soldiers guarding the house got used to seeing these baskets pass in and out of Shivaji's house. They examined the baskets very carefully for some days; Shivaji and Sambhaji concealed themselves in two of the baskets and slipped out of the gates of the house and out of the walls of Agra. Then, at a selected spot, they mounted swift horses that had been kept ready saddled for their escape. For many hours after the flight, Shivaji's disappearance was not noticed by anybody. One of his faithful flowers had taken his place on the sick bed, covering himself with a blanket but showing on his finger the diamond ring that the Maratha chieftain always wore. The guards naturally thought that Shivaji was still slipping. They discovered their mistake when it was too late. Meanwhile, Shivaji and sambhaji had galloped away to Mathura. There Sivaji shaved off his head and whiskers, rubbed his face with ashes, and looking like a wandering gosavi journeyed by secret Paths to the Deccan. He travelled right round the country, through Bihar, and then to the east coast, and hence across central India to Raigarh. Many, many months later, he went in this disguise to his mother Jijabai and threw himself at her feet. She could not recognize her own son. But when he placed his head on her lap, and took off his cap, she burst into tears of joy. Her son, whom she had believed dead, had returned to her safe and sound after a miraculous escape from his enemies.
