These people are guilty.
I want them to be burnt...
...so that they feel the pain they've inflicted on me.
But, Your Highness, you should hear aunt out, once.
Keep quiet.
Don't you have the manners...
...not to interrupt, when I am talking?
Your aunt is guilty.
My aunt is not guilty.
We would rather die than betray.
Anyone who favours the traitor is also a traitor.
In that case, I am also your culprit.
But, I can't accept that my aunt and uncles...
...have committed any crime.
Pardon me, Your Highness.
It is true that you are the supreme...
...power in the Mughal empire.
It is your right to do justice.
And no one can question your justice.
But, passing a judgement without any argument...
...or without any concrete evidence...
...is against the law of the Mughal empire.
It is the rule of the law of the Mughal empire...
...that the accused be given a chance to defend himself.
There will be no hearing...
...there will not be any defence or argument.
They have murdered my heir.
They have murdered the future emperor of the Mughal empire.
An eye for an eye. That is justice.
They have committed this murder.
This case will end with their murder.
I am sorry for breaking the law of the court by speaking.
There is no doubt that the culprit...
...doesn't deserve any mercy.
But, it is necessary to give the accused a chance...
...to defend himself.
I don't want anyone to point fingers...
...at the justice of the Mughal empire...
...post this decision of the emperor.
So, what do you want, mother?
Should I reward them for what they did?
No, I just want to remind you of certain things.
I think, this is a conspiracy against queen Jodha.
Just think. Why does this happen?
Lady Jodha cooks for you.
When she serves it, it becomes overly spicy.
Although the food, which is served to the emperor...
...is always tasted before it is served.
Again this time, every gift was accepted...
...only after proper inspection...
...in the presence of the royal supervisor.
Even the saffron from Amer was tasted.
There was no Datura extract in it then.
So, did lady Jodha mix the plant extract in it...
...after it was taken to treasury?
Don't these events tell you that someone is trying...
...to target lady Jodha?
A 100 criminals might well escape, but not even...
...one innocent person should be punished.
I would like the real culprit to be caught and punished this time.
This is the request of the queen mother.
Your Highness, the queen is right.
You should consider the law followed by the Mughal empire.
The clergyman is right. We should give lady Jodha a chance.
Alright.
In the name of the justice for the Mughals...
...10 days. 10 days of investigation.
Jodha and her brothers have 10 days to prove their innocence.
But, they will be under house arrest until then.
No one will meet them nor will they be able to meet each other.
If they are not able to prove their innocence in 10 days...
...they'll be considered guilty and...
...burnt alive in public.
"God have mercy. I have never seen you look into the mirror."
"I mean, you have never cared about your beauty, Your Highness."
"Call me the queen mother and not your highness, you fool."
"I am not beholding my face, but the beauty..."
"...of the one who'll get the rank of the queen mother soon."
No.
Be alert!
The emperor of India...
...Jalaluddin Mohammad is arriving.
You are dismissed.
Ruqaiya.
I gave them 10 days time...
...at the behest of the clergyman and mother.
Why did they stop me?
I would've killed all of them.
How would that have helped, Jalal?
This investigation would've ended right here.
The culprit wouldn't have been punished.
What do you mean?
I mean, what mother said made sense.
It helped me snap out of the emotional overdrive...
...and compelled me to think. She was right.
That women have had miscarriages even before in this harem.
Queens have lost their babies.
Even when lady Jodha was not here.
This means, there is much more to this than meets the eye.
If the root of this matter lies somewhere else...
...then, we have to find it. Now, we have to find the truth.
Who doesn't want the heir of this empire to be born?
Ruqaiya, I am still convinced that Jodha...
...is behind what happened.
She wanted to seek revenge from me, before our marriage.
She wanted to embarrass me. She wanted to hurt me.
And she did that.
By taking my child away from me.
Jalal, it's just a matter of 10 days.
Whatever it is, it will be revealed within 10 days.
You will sever the head of that culprit after 10 days...
...right in front of me.
Be it queen Jodha or someone else.
Attention please.
Queen Hamida is entering.
Greetings, mother.
You shouldn't have come here.
The emperor has ordered that no one should meet me.
If you come here, that could anger him further.
I am at a rank, where Jalal can't be angry with me.
I am his mother.
I have come here as a mother, too.
You consider me your mother, right?
Now, no one can stop me from meeting you.
Not even the order of the emperor of India.
Mother, I am not sad that I have been imprisoned.
I am hurt that he questioned my motherland.
Jodha, God neither punishes the innocent...
...and nor does time let the guilty hide.
Right now, Jalal is angry. If he uses his mind...
...he'll definitely get to the truth.
Then, he'll regret his deeds.
You'll be able to walk with your head held high, again.
But for now, I am sorry about my son's injustice.
But, I am proud of you, mother.
I thank my good fortune...
...to have a mother-in-law like you.
You protected not only my own but, Amer's pride and honour...
...in the public court.
You are my daughter. Your pride is my pride.
It's Jalal's bad luck that he suspects you.
But, the Mughals have never been unfair to anyone...
...nor will I let that happen this time.
I promise you.
Do let me know through...
...the guard standing outside, if you have any problem.
I'll be here, immediately.
I do have a problem.
Tell me.
I light a lamp at Lord Krishna's feet since years, every evening.
I have never broken this routine.
But now, I'll not be able to light the lamp before Him.
This is bothering me a lot.
The lamp will be lit before your Lord Krishna, Jodha.
I'll light it.
Brother, I don't think we'll get justice here.
A conspiracy is being hatched against us and Amer, here.
It's a major conspiracy, mother.
A major conspiracy.
This is not conspiracy, Adham. This is a crime.
Murdering the heir in the womb is the gravest sin.
I feel like murdering those people from Amer.
I also wish that, the culprit should be murdered.
But, who knows? These people from Amer may not have done it.
This might be someone else's work.
The emperor did this.
No, father. It's not so.
So, what do you think? Was what the emperor did, fair?
I didn't say so, father. But, he hasn't done injustice, either.
All the evidence was against us.
Anyone else in the emperor's shoes would've done the same.
If the emperor wanted to punish us...
...why would he give us 10 days?
Who can challenge the emperor's decision?
Do you suspect someone, Maan Singh?
There could be many I can suspect. Namely Adham Khan.
-Adham Khan? -He has argued many times...
...with the emperor in the open court.
It could also be Sharifuddin.
Sharifuddin. Could he do this?
Yes. The Datura plant is found in the area...
...which is under Sharifuddin's jurisdiction.
As it is, I have felt that Sharifuddin didn't quite like...
...the lenient attitude the emperor had towards Amer.
But mother, how can you say so, with such certainty?
How can you be sure Sharifuddin has done all this?
The emperor asked Sharifuddin to return...
...all the money collected from Amer.
Possibly. It is possible that this might have hurt Sharifuddin's ego.
He may have thought of seeking revenge from Amer.
It could even be Adham's mother.
Suspect you? Who would dare to accuse you?
You can stop an attacker, but not an accuser, Adham.
This concerns the death of the heir to the empire.
Jalal's child has been murdered. Jalal is mad with fury, Adham.
Right now, he could point a finger at anyone.
It could be me.
But, why her?
Don't you remember?
Ever since aunt Jodha burnt the clothes given by her...
...aunt Jodha and she can't stand each other.
Your food.
None of us will have this food.
Why, brother?
It is not a hard task for the one who fed datura...
...to the emperor's queen, to poison this food.
The Datura extract has worked its magic.
Now, what remains to be seen is what the emperor does.
I hope, something happens this time, mother.
I have heard, Jalal has decided to investigate, personally.
10 days. What remains to be seen is, what happens in 10 days?
Will lady Jodha's luck smile on her within 10 days or not?
Oh, Lord, this is not right.
The Mughals have imprisoned all the princes along with Jodha.
Amer is unaware of this.
There's no one to help them.
Your attention please.
Queen Hamida is entering.
Why have you all come here?
We have orders to safeguard you, Your Highness.
I hereby command all of you to leave.
I am not in any danger here. Go.
Where is the material for the veneration, Reva?
Her Highness, why are you doing all this?
When I sought refuge in Umerkot with Jalal...
...I had seen how the veneration is performed.
Lady Jodha doesn't want...
...any disruption in her Lord Krishna's veneration.
That's why, I venerated Him.
Her Highness, you also know that Jodha is innocent, don't you?
Save her.
Have faith in Him. He'll not allow any innocent to get punished.
Jalal, what are you doing here?
Did you go to meet lady Jodha?
As far as I remember, Jodha is under house arrest. Not me.
You went there despite me my command to that effect.
I ordered in the court, that no one will meet lady Jodha.
Anyone? You seem to forget, Jalal.
I am not included in anyone.
I am the queen mother. I am the mother of the ruling emperor.
I have the final say.
Yes, it would be wrong, if I interfere in the investigation.
But, meeting my daughter-in-law is not a crime.
Mother, why don't you understand?
I have lost my baby. This is my pain.
Glory to the king. There is a special message for you.
King Bharmal has sent a message, Your Highness.
Read it.
He say, "Bharmal's greetings..."
"...to emperor Jalaluddin Mohammad."
"We got your message. You want to see me."
"As is it, I was going to come to you."
"I have to give you good news."
"My daughter Sukanya's marriage has been fixed..."
"...with Ratan Singh, the son of Bhavani Singh, king of Sujanpur."
"Greetings." You have called king Bharmal here, Your Majesty?
Yes. I have called him here.
I have something in mind for him...
...as I have for his sons.
Prince, this is for you.
A mere gift from me.
Thank you so much. I consider myself lucky...
...that you accepted this proposal.
No other royal family was ready to have an alliance with us.
Everyone saw what you did.
But, no one saw why you did so.
I like your daughter Sukanya's horoscope and qualities.
Matches are made by God.
No matter what the society has to say about this...
...I have no issues.
Now, I'd like to take your leave.
I have to make lots of arrangements for the wedding.
I have to send lots of invites.
For sure.
"The whole of Amer was rejoicing upon hearing...
...about Sukanya's marriage being finalised."
"Mainawati's joy knew no bounds."
Thanks a million to the Almighty that there is one kingdom...
...which is ready to accept my Sukanya.
I admit, the kingdom is not big. It's a small kingdom.
But, my Sukanya will be a bride, at least.
Otherwise, after Jodha's marriage I was afraid...
...that Sukanya might never get married.
My dear, bad things never happen to people with good intentions.
Of course. Sukanya is so good.
Who can turn down her marriage proposal?
Now, Sukanya is going to be a queen from a princess.
If sister Jodha were here, she would've been so happy, right?
Really! I am missing her a lot, today.
Come on. The king wants to meet you, right away.
Now?
Now? Has he called me, immediately?
Let's go.
I wonder what the emperor has in mind, now.
His Highness wants to talk about something important to all of you.
That is why he has called all of you at this hour.
What important matter does His Highness want to discuss?
Attention. Attention.
The king of India, the glory of the Mughal empire...
...his Highness Jalaluddin Mohammad is coming.
All of you were put under house arrest, by my order.
It was my order that no one should meet you.
But, the news is such that I wanted to tell all of you.
The news is that King Bharmal himself...
...is coming to Agra, tomorrow, since I said so.
I have heard that he wants to give some good news.
Now, I want to ask all of you...
...that either, he tells me the good news first...
...or I tell him about your ruse, first.
None of you have answered me.
Alright.
I will decide what I have to do.
All of you can leave.
I have told all of you to leave.
What do you want?
That you should leave.
Queen Jodha should be taken to the surveillance room.
I asked you, what do you want to do?
What do I want to do? You will find out after 10 days.
What kind of game do you want to play with my father?
His Highness need not give any explanation to culprits.
If anything wrong happens to my father...
...then, I won't tolerate it.
Why?
When your kin is hurt you get angry, don't you, lady Jodha?
Oh, yes! After being rejected 17 times...
...now, your sister's marriage has been fixed.
Your father will be very happy.
This alliance must be important for you, too.
Why don't we celebrate this?
Your Highness, don't do this.
My father will be shattered and my sister...
What will you gain by hurting them?
Peace.
I will gain peace by hurting you.
My orders should be followed.
I have heard that King Bharmal is coming here.
I want to know, how will His Highness treat...
...King Bharmal and the rest of the people from Amer?
Even I am eager to know whether King Bharmal...
...will escape from His Highness or not.
I want to see how His Highness...
...welcomes King Bharmal into the court.
Show me.
I received your message.
I was about to come to give you, the good news.
These gifts are for you on my behalf.
My daughter Sukanya's wedding has been arranged...
...with Sujanpur's king Bhawani Singh's...
...son prince Ratan Singh.
On the next full moon day the pre-marriage...
...ceremony has been fixed.
That is very good news.
So, please have some sweets.
Definitely.
But, before that...
...you eat some.
I have arranged for these sweets, Your Highness.
So, I should get the honour to taste it.
Only His Highness has the right to order, here.
Permission granted.
You must have felt bad, my lord. But, what can I do?
Nowadays, poison is flowing freely in Agra.
-I don't quite understand. -You will understand.
"What is Jalal doing?"
"Why isn't he telling the truth to King Bharmal?"
Anyway, I will enjoy it later.
Take these away.
-Your Highness, if you permit it... -Permission granted.
But, I didn't even complete my sentence.
It is natural, my lord.
The father has come from so far to his daughter's in-laws...
...so first of all, he will want to meet his daughter.
The king should be taken to his daughter.
Thank you.
Forgive me, Your Highness. But, I want to...
I know what you are thinking, aunt.
You are wondering, why I didn't tell...
...King Bharmal anything about his children's house arrest.
Yes, Your Highness. You are absolutely right.
He is the king of Amer and somewhere...
...he is also responsible for this ruse.
Aunt, king Bharmal is a father, too.
A father is more hurt to see his children in pain...
...rather than hear about it.
That's when it's fun, aunt.
We won't have to wait for long.
He will come before me soon...
...with regret in his eyes and questions on his lips.
"So at last, Jalal called him here."
"It is good that the entire family will..."
"...wipe each other's tears in prison."
"What kind of welcome is this in Agra, this time around?"
"Neither did His Highness reply to..."
"...my greetings nor did Adham Khan."
"The gift was also strictly inspected."
"There is something that I can't understand."
Lady Jodha's father has come to meet her.
His Highness himself has given the permission.
Wait.
"Such tight security? What is the matter?"
Grandfather.
Father.
Congratulations to all of you.
Sukanya's marriage has been fixed.
I am coming directly from there.
Yes.
His Highness said that...
...you are coming to give this good news.
"Does father know that all of us are imprisoned?"
"Seeing the joy on his face, I don't think so."
His Highness is very intelligent.
Before I could say anything, he understood...
...that I want to meet all four of you.
He sent me here.
"Is it that His Highness Jalaluddin..."
"...wants to imprison father, too?"
Where is Jodha? I wanted to meet her, too.
Father.
Jodha!
God bless you.
I got the message that you have came.
So, I took the permission to come and meet you.
Took permission?
What is the matter? Permission for every little thing?
Such tight security.
Why have you been kept in the isolated room of the palace?
Tell me.
Someone, tell me.
Why have all of you become so sad?
We are imprisoned here. We are under house arrest.
For what crime?
What has happened?
Jodha, you are the queen here.
What has happened that all of you are kept in an isolated room?
Tell me.
Queen Ruqaiya's child has been aborted...
...with Datura extract.
Amer has been accused of it.
"I want you to add this saffron..."
"...in the milk and give it to Ruqaiya, yourself."
"It has been proved that the saffron laced with Datura..."
"...was from Amer."
"10 days for investigation and 10 days for Jodha..."
"...and her brothers to prove their innocence."
"If within 10 days, they can't prove their innocence...
"...after that, they will be considered guilty and..."
"...be burnt alive in front of everyone."
But, why didn't His Highness give me this news?
I am coming here after meeting him.
Now, I understand why the gifts I brought...
...were inspected so strictly.
That's why I was told to taste the sweets brought by me.
His Highness has a suspicion that maybe I will poison him.
Oh, Goddess!
Father.
Where are you going?
I will have to meet His Highness immediately, Jodha.
What happened to all of you, was not right.
I will have to clear his doubt, at once.
What are you doing, sister-in-law? Careful.
Otherwise, she will get hurt.
Exactly, sister-in-law.
I am explaining to her since a long time.
But, she does not understand.
She likes it. That is why I am trying it on.
Look at them.
The marriage has been fixed and suddenly...
...there is so much love between both of you.
That's what had happened with Jodha.
Before her wedding, Sukanya's...
...love for her had awakened.
"Now, you won't be able to snatch..."
"...anything from me, sister Jodha."
"I am really very happy."
There is time for the pre-marriage ceremony.
But I think, that happiness and joy have entered the palace.
No matter how much time there is for a daughter's wedding...
...preparations, but it is always less, Mainavati.
Now, lots of arrangements have to be done.
Sukanya, your marriage will also be conducted...
...with great pomp like your sister Jodha's marriage.
That will have to be done, grandma.
Otherwise, sister Sukanya will again start criticising...
...that all of you love sister Jodha more.
Greetings, my queen. A messenger has come from Agra.
Sister-in-law Jodha will live for long.
We mentioned her name and her message has arrived.
She must have received the news.
She must have sent her congratulations.
Call him.
Tell me, what is the message?
In Agra, Queen Jodha and her brothers have been accused...
...of murdering His Highness' unborn heir.
They are under house arrest.
Oh, Goddess! What divine ploy is this?
One daughter is getting married and...
...the other's marriage is on the rocks.
Forget about doing it, my Jodha can't even think like that.
How did His Highness believe all these things?
How did he believe it, mother?
Mainavati...
...ruses and misunderstandings always...
...keep happening in royal families.
There is nothing to worry about.
The Goddess is there, right?
She will definitely show us some way.
Why is all this happening to us, mother?
Just now, we returned from Agra with a faint hope.
I thought that, everything will be fine.
Even Shagunibai said, that everything will be fine.
And, now...
Why, mother? What should I do?
After hearing of one daughter's sad news, how can I sing...
...joyful songs for the other one, mother?
Mother, since childhood I have been blaming sister Jodha...
...that she asserted her right on everything I had...
...whether it is bangles or a stole.
But, mother, today I won't say that...
...she has snatched my happiness.
Because, I can understand...
...what pain she is going through.
Mother, this is not the time to be happy...
...but, to understand sister Jodha's pain.
Mainavati, you are a queen.
You will have to be strong in this tough time.
Believe me, Mainavati.
Mainavati, just as gold shines after smouldering in fire...
...in the same way Jodha's honour will shine...
...like pure gold, after this accusation.
Your Highness, why didn't you tell me...
...you have imprisoned my children?
I didn't want to shatter your hope.
But, then it was such a bad ruse, I was afraid...
...if I said it, my tongue will get sullied.
It is better that you should hear...
...of your children's misdeeds from them.
Now, you must have found out how...
...cruelly they killed my child.
Your Highness, I am sorry for this incident.
What happened with you was bad.
But, is it right to accuse my children...
...without a proper investigation?
You are the king of Amer and elder to me.
That is why, I am talking to you respectfully.
Otherwise, no one commits the mistake of questioning me.
I am your father-in-law, too.
At this moment, you are just a criminal's father.
A father whose children killed my child.
You were right, my lord.
It is not right to give punishment...
...until you have proof.
That is why, I have kept your children under house arrest.
Otherwise, by now I would have killed everyone.
But, understand one thing, my lord.
The day, I find proof that confirms my suspicions...
...I will change Amer's history and destiny.
I won't hesitate to consider you a criminal too, my lord.
Make proper arrangements to welcome him, aunt.
As he said, he is my father-in-law.
Make sure, he is accorded the proper welcome.
Present him with delicious delicacies made by the best chefs.
I won't eat anything, today.
You may consider me as the father of criminals.
But for me, you are my son-in-law.
I have received sad news from your family.
I will observe a fast, today.
Why are you smiling, aunt?
I was smiling, after seeing the hurt on the king...
...of Amer, Bharmal's face because of your slap.
Wonderful, Your Highness! This is what I call a slap.
You didn't raise your hand, neither was there any sound.
Tell me, aunt. What is on your mind?
Interfering with His Highness's decision in court, is not right.
So, I didn't say anything to you, over there.
But here, I want to ask my son something in private.
What's the meaning of being hospitable...
...to king Bharmal of Amer?
If you have kept the princes of Amer under house arrest...
...then, why not do the same for the king of Amer?
If the Datura extract came from Amer...
...then, King Bharmal is also responsible for it.
As far as I know, this ruse couldn't have been planned...
...without King Bharmal's support.
So I think, you should arrest King Bharmal right now.
So that, it sets an example for the people about the outcome...
...of conspiring against the king of the Mughal empire.
Being kind to him could encourage rebels of the empire.
When the prey has emerged...
...the hunter should hunt, Jalal.
