I am very happy that all of you have gathered here...
...as soon as you received my message.
I want to talk to all of you about something important...
...before I go back to Agra.
The way he asked for the fort of Ratanpur from me...
...I couldn't tolerate it.
But then, I never leave any task incomplete.
So, I won't leave it incomplete even today.
I came here to get King Bharmal's daughter...
...married to you and I will get it done before I leave.
I did not give my word about giving the fort of Ratanpur.
But, I did give my word to King Bharmal...
...that I will be a part of his daughter's wedding.
I will do all the rituals that a son-in-law should do.
I fixed up the alliance of Sukanya with Vajendra.
So Sukanya will get married to Vajendra for sure.
King Bharmal. As your daughter is a part of my family...
...even I am a part of your family.
Because of that, I won't let Amer get defamed.
I am ready to give the fort.
Adgah Khan!
This is the letter of my royal agreement.
It is mentioned in this agreement that...
...Ratnapur is now yours.
If that is so, we don't have any problem with this marriage.
So now that Ratnapur is yours...
...this wedding shouldn't be halted now.
I want Sukanya's wedding palanquin to leave for Dhavalgarh.
After that, even I will go back to Agra.
King Bharmal.
I will take the royal queen of Dhavalgrah from here for sure.
Give me permission to leave, now.
I don't know what you did to make the emperor change his mind.
But, I would like to tell you, queen Jodha.
By giving the fort of Ratanpur to king Achal Singh...
...you have harmed the Mughal rule in a very big way.
You have lessened the power of the emperor to win war.
Being a wife, you have stood against your husband.
Now, the entire country will come to know...
...that the emperor of the empire has given up in front...
...of the king of a small state.
First of all, the emperor hasn't given up.
In fact, after this decision, he has emerged all the greater.
He fixed this alliance. If this would have broken...
...I am sure the whole of India would have looked down upon him.
Secondly, I didn't go against my husband.
In fact, I have made him come close to me.
Thirdly and the most important thing.
What have I done?
Maham Anga, even if it was by mistake...
...you made me realise my mistake.
You taught me that I shouldn't go against my husband every time.
And that is right.
And I acted upon it and rectified my mistake.
I thought and understood that the emperor...
...strikes back more, when he is struck.
He answers humility, with greater humility.
He is good with good people and bad with mean people.
So, I thought that...
...I shouldn't be proved as bad in front of my husband.
That is why, I decided to be good.
I showed greatness and asked for forgiveness.
While he showed his greatness and gave the fort.
Jodha, maybe you have won in this.
But, the emperor has lost because of you.
Who has been able to understand the emperor till date?
I am sure, he must have thought over the decision he has made.
By the way, Maham Anga, forgive me.
I am getting late.
I want to talk about something important with the emperor.
I will be able to move forward, if you move out of my way.
All of you can leave. Lady Jodha wants to talk to me alone.
I am sure, you want to ask me...
...as to why I decided to give the fort of Ratanpur.
Yes. That was the question I had.
Thank God.
I have started understanding the questions in your mind.
Now, please answer my question.
When you did not give your word...
...why did you decide to give the fort to Achal Singh?
The reason for that is respect, Jodha.
You accorded respect to my people.
And history bears testimony that there have been...
...big wars among emperors because of respect, Jodha.
There have been big compromises because of respect.
It was my duty to keep the respect of all of you...
...because you gave respect to my family.
Sukanya's wedding would mean respect for your family.
It was possible only when I would have given the fort to them.
You made this sacrifice because of Sukanya's wedding?
I cannot accept it, emperor.
I am sure, it is something else.
You were ready to draw your sword for the fort, in the court.
How can you let go of it so easily?
You are very intelligent, Jodha.
But, you are not intelligent enough to understand me completely.
Just enjoy the results, my queen.
Don't think of anything else.
I have made the decision to give the fort as an emperor.
So let it remain an emperor's decision.
Don't try to think too much, Jodha.
You will never be able to know what is going on here.
Now just go and make preparations for the wedding.
Both of us have to fulfil the rituals together tomorrow.
Tell your father that his son-in-law...
...has lessened his burden.
Why did the emperor give away the fort?
I haven't lost hope.
I don't know what Jalal is made of.
He does the opposite of what we think of doing.
He gave away the fort of Ratanpur without a problem?
Now, Jodha's relationship won't break off...
...nor will her sister's alliance.
I don't know.
God knows what Jodha has done...
...to make Jalal change...
...his decision completely.
Forget all that.
Think about how Jodha got to know of your plan.
I don't care about that, Adham.
Even if Jodha has come to know of my game...
...she cannot prove anything.
But, we must be careful.
Jodha is a very clever woman.
Thinking of her as less intelligent would be the biggest foolishness.
Mainawati, it would be a mistake to underestimate Jodha.
She deserves to be the queen of the Mughal empire.
Because, she thinks like a queen.
You are right, mother.
The problem about Sukanya's wedding has been resolved.
Because of Jodha's wisdom and...
...because of Goddess Amba's grace.
Goddess Amba has graced Dhavalgarh, Vajendra.
The conquest of the Ratanpur fort...
...has made Dhavalgarh safe from both the Rajputs...
...and also the Mughals.
King Achal Singh is a fool.
He thinks of his state as safe.
Coward.
He didn't have the capacity to fight a war.
He is thinking that he is invincible because of one fort.
He didn't even think that Jalal...
...who had taken out his sword in front...
...of everyone because of one fort...
...has changed his decision all of sudden for unknown reasons.
I am sure, there is a game plan behind this.
Achal Singh is thinking that he has won the game.
But, he cannot see that the moves are still with Jalal.
He has made his move and made the opposite side win one game.
But, he will win the final challenge.
Although he is an enemy, I must admit that he can foresee a lot.
I am sure, there is a secret motive in all this.
No one knows what it is.
May the emperor always rule. Did you call me, sire?
Yes. Adgah!
Just take a look here.
These ants have covered the sweets in a way in which...
...no one but them can touch these sweets.
I cannot understand what you are saying, sire.
Adgah, how many soldiers came with us when we came from Agra?
We had an army of 5,000, emperor.
Make them leave for Ratanpur, immediately.
But, they are here for your safety, sire.
I am doing this for the safety for the Mughal empire.
I gave the fort to Achal Singh as a gift.
Now, I will take it back again by winning it over.
But sire, it will cause a problem in lady Jodha's sister's wedding.
It won't, Adgah.
Get the army to leave immediately.
Ask everyone to say that they are going back to Agra.
In the meanwhile, Sukanya will get married and leave as well.
With this, my word will be kept and...
...Sukanya will get married.
After that, I will take control of my fort, again.
People will know...
...that pressurising the Mughal empire and forcibly...
...saying something to the emperor...
...is impossible.
I get it, sire.
Your command will be followed immediately.
'Whether the news is good or bad...
...it has a common factor.'
'They spread in the jungle like a fire.'
'And even the Rajputs of Dhavalgarh...
...reached the fort of Ratanpur with this news at great speed.'
With the command of the emperor of India...
...Jalaluddin Mohammed...
...Ratanpur's fort is given to the...
...control of the king of Dhavalgarh, Achal Singh.
The one to look after the fort has been given a command...
...that he should immediately give the fort...
...to the caretaker of Dhavalgarh.
With the royal seal.
Jalaluddin Mohammed.
The emperor of the empire of Mughals.
It is the command of the emperor.
We have to give the fort to the Rajputs.
Make preparations to make the fort empty.
The information about our rule on the fort of Rattanpur fort...
...hasn't come yet.
Don't worry, king.
I am sure the messenger will get this information, shortly.
Hail the king.
The flag of Dhavalgarh is flying on the fort of Ratanpur.
Congratulations, my king. Now, what are your orders?
What could be the command?
It is the time for Vajendra's wedding.
Go. Get prince Vajendra here.
Yes, my lord.
Dhavalgarh is safe now.
Congratulations to you, twice over.
For your marriage...
....and also for getting the fort of Ratanpur.
I would have been happier, if I could win the fort in war, father.
Victory should be relished in politics, Vajendra.
We can achieve it by war.
Or even by using a plan.
It is a political success for us to get this fort.
Snehlata. Is everything ready for the wedding?
Yes, sister-in-law.
I have kept all the necessary things in the place...
...where they are supposed to be kept.
And the priest?
The priest must be on his way with the other priests.
Maan Singh. I hope the food for the groom's family is ready.
The preparations are good. I checked it myself.
And what about the security arrangement, Khangaar Singh?
The arrangements for security are good, brother.
We haven't left anything lacking in the wedding, this time.
The environment seems good, Adgah.
The Rajputs seem happy.
Why not, sir? They have got what they wanted.
And what about what I wanted?
We have to take control of the fort of Ratanpur, again.
They must be happy with their victory.
We mustn't give them a chance to win, at all.
Go ahead. Let's charge!
Sister Jodha. Brother-in-law loves you so much.
He gives so much importance to you.
That is why, even after giving so many gifts...
...he has given the fort of Ratanpur too.
Shivani is right.
If son-in-law had denied us...
...the wedding altar of Sukanya would have been empty today.
Jodha. Did you thank son-in-law or not?
Now, grandmother, I was...
I didn't expect this from you, Jodha.
Son-in-law has kept our respect from being ruined.
Why didn't you even say two words of thanks?
Go, dear. Go. Go and thank him.
-Go. -Go.
For the ritual...
...the sister and sister-in-law of the bride should come here.
Sister Jodha.
Jodha.
Queen Jodha. Your younger sister is trying to tell you something.
Is she trying to tell you to say something to me?
Yes. Well...
...I did not thank you for the fort of Ratanpur.
I would like to thank you for whatever you did.
You have many talents, Jodha. But, you can't say thank you.
I told you, right?
Say it a little softly. Say it sincerely, in a nice way.
Thank you.
Better.
Brother-in-law. Brother-in-law.
Help us.
What is your command, little princess?
We want to steal the shoes of our would be brother-in-law.
But, he isn't wearing any.
You did this at my wedding too, right?
This happens at every wedding, brother-in-law.
We won't get the money, if we don't steal the shoes.
It is a question of our honour.
So, is that it?
Now, I am from your elder sister's family.
Your honour means her honour and her honour means my honour.
And since it is a matter about my honour...
...I must do something. Right?
Let us do something.
Did you see how intelligent brother-in-law is?
Yes, he is.
Your brother-in-law is very wise...
...when it comes to snatching things from others.
Would be brother-in-law, if you want your shoes...
...give us money.
Give it.
Why should I give it? These aren't my shoes.
My shoes are there.
Come on, son. We will go.
Hey, now. Let us go.
You cannot go.
So, the shoes are with us, right?
Now, you have to give us the money.
How are you feeling, Bakshi Bano?
You are taking part in a Hindu wedding for the first time.
What happened to your hand?
Nothing, mother. Actually, I was just...
I am sure it is paining a lot.
No. Actually, I was wearing bangles. And...
And the glass broke.
Now mother, I have told her so many times.
She shouldn't wear glass bangles.
Is there any lack of gold bangles?
But, she doesn't listen to me, at all.
You won't understand, Sharifuddin.
It isn't easy to understand women.
Anyway, I am happy that the problem...
...of Sukanya's marriage has gone.
Everything is happening nicely.
The emperor made the correct decision.
Everyone is happy and I am feeling irritated.
My efforts have been wasted.
Emperor. Please put your right hand in front.
Dear, please put your left hand in the hand of the emperor.
He is holding my hand so tightly that it has started paining.
He doesn't let go of any chance to upset me.
'Jodha, the pleasure I get out of teasing you...
...is something I don't get even when I win wars.'
Emperor, put your hand in front to offer the sacrifice to the fire.
Priest, before that, I would like to ask you...
...about what you have said.
Would you like to know?
Yes.
Even when I hear birds chirping in the morning...
...I want to know what they are signing.
Are they waking their children up...
...or are they telling their children to keep quiet...
...and they are going to get food for them?
Sure.
I have chanted this hymn for you.
In this, you are wishing for the well being...
...of the bride and the groom.
I know, that you don't want to understand...
...the meaning of the chant.
You just want to hold my hand and sit for a longer time.
Very good, priest.
Now, make the sacrifice.
Now, the bride and the groom must stand for the wedding vows.
Now, the bride and the groom...
...must put the wedding garlands on each other.
Congratulations to both of you.
The wedding is complete.
Now, both of you are husband and wife.
'Sukanya got married.'
'Mughal soldiers took control of Ratanpur castle once more.'
'What Jalal had thought of was accomplished.'
'Even after giving the castle, the Mughals snatched it back.'
'Now, it remains to be seen if Sukanya is seen off from Amer...
...or does the news of control of the Mughals on Ratanpur...
...reach Amer, first?'
Jalaluddin Mohammed. Hail.
Okay, Bharmal. Give us permission to leave now.
The preparations at Dhavalgarh to welcome...
...the bride are complete.
Achal Singh.
If we have made a mistake unknowingly...
...please forgive us.
-King. -Yes?
There is important news.
Keep the palanquin down.
The farewell will not happen now.
We have been cheated.
Very good, emperor. So, this is how you keep your word?
You gave us the fort of Ratanpur, first.
And then, without a warning, you attacked it...
...and got it under your control, again?
When the Rajputs give their word to someone...
...we keep it even though we may have to die for it.
The rest of the Rajputs are right.
Mughals deserve to have only one relationship.
The relationship of enmity.
Have you said what you want?
Now, I will speak.
I will explain to you at length how relationships are maintained.
At the moment, I would like to remind you of what you said.
As a Rajput, it is not right to come to the bride's house...
...and under the pretext of marriage, make a compromise...
...taking advantage of the situation.
Yes. I gave you that fort because...
...I had given my word to King Bharmal.
And I took that fort back from you...
...because I wanted to teach you a lesson...
...and make you realise that some things are not asked for.
They have to be won.
One should have the strength to win them.
And you don't have it.
If you wanted the fort, you should have met me on the battleground.
Not at a marriage altar like this.
I am sure you are feeling very angry, right?
You want to fight a war with me, right?
Okay. Come and fight a war with me.
The rituals of the wedding are done.
Now, the rituals of war should also be done.
No soldier will come from my side.
I will fight with you alone.
You, your son and you can call anyone.
I am ready to fight.
I want to tell you something else.
The marriage of Vajendra and Sukanya is done.
Their destiny, their families and even their hearts have met.
That is why, I will give you a warning.
If Sukanya faces the slightest bit of trouble in your house...
...I swear to God, I will hurt your son very badly.
If you hurt her even a little...
...I will slit the chest of your son and get his heart out.
You...
...you have...
You are trying to scare me!
First, you promised me safety.
And now...
You Mughals!
That is it. Not a word more.
If you say one word against my community...
...I will silence you permanently!
No, emperor.
I would like to request you not to fight a war with them.
I give you my word that at least I won't start it.
Thank God.
Or else, it would have been your head instead this sword.
Thank God that I gave my word to queen Jodha...
...and that word has stopped me.
You are married, Sukanya.
After the marriage, a groom and bride are given presents.
Vajendra, as a gift for you...
...I am granting you your father's life.
Sukanya, I am giving you the fort of Ratanpur to you as a gift...
...and give my word that Ratanpur and Dhavalgarh will be safe.
I just wanted him to know who he is talking to.
Gifts are never asked for or snatched away.
One gives them with a sincere heart.
That is why, I am giving you the fort of Ratanpur with my heart.
This agreement is...
...proof of this.
-Well... -Your questions never end, Jodha.
Ask me. What do you want to ask?
I cannot understand this.
When you had already given the fort of Ratanpur to Achal Singh...
...why did you take control of it again?
There are two reasons for it, Jodha.
The first is that, if I would have given the fort to them...
...under anyone's pressure...
...it would have been a loss of mine on a political level.
And I cannot tolerate loss.
Because if I lose, I will lose my empire.
The second reason, lady Jodha...
...I never give anything to anyone they haven't worked hard for.
If they have not got it on their merit.
It could be land, a fort, wealth or love.
I felt that you only believed in winning.
Not in earning.
Whatever the words and thoughts are...
...that is the truth, Jodha...
...because even victory is earned by hard work.
With one's blood and sweat.
If you got that fort with so much of hard work...
...why did you give it to Sukanya?
In a way, I haven't given the fort to Sukanya...
...but to the relationship that I have with you. With Amer.
That fort was earned by your father and family with your trust.
It was earned with respect.
The respect that you have given my family and me.
I didn't want people to think that the emperor cannot...
...give respect in return for respect.
You are such a great emperor.
Why are you bothered about what people think about you?
It makes a difference to me, Jodha...
...about what all of you think about me.
I don't know why, but it does make a difference to me.
Now, I want to say something to you, queen Jodha.
I will give you the answer for the question...
...which you haven't asked me yet.
Why is the fort of Ratanpur so close to my heart?
Jodha, when I was very young...
...my father, the late emperor Humayun...
...gave that fort to me.
He took me to the highest point of the fort...
...and showed me the view of the world from there.
He told me that as far as I could see...
...will be mine, some day.
If the fort is so dear to you, why did you give it to Sukanya?
Why?
There are two reasons for that too, Jodha.
The first one is that I have achieved a lot more than I...
...had seen from that fort.
The second reason, Jodha...
...I didn't give it to the princess of Amer Sukanya.
But, I have given it to the sister of the queen of the Mughal empire.
You have given the answer, emperor.
But, Jodha's question was justified.
Why? Why do her statements make any difference to me?
Why?
'The journey of Jalal had left for Agra from Amer.'
'In those days, man didn't have much control on weather.'
'There were storms along with the cold breeze.'
'And foreseeing that was difficult.'
'That was a day which was full of cold and frosty air.'
Adgah, I don't think going further would be...
...good for the health of our people.
That is why, we will stay here for tonight.
Okay, emperor.
Stop the caravan.
Your decision was right, sir.
We must wait out the storm...
...right here.
We are soldiers...
...and we do come across such storms, time and again.
But, the royal queens and wives of the palace...
...wouldn't be able to withstand this storm.
Adgah, tell the servant that mother, aunt and the ladies...
...tents, must have all that is necessary.
Everyone's tent should have fire, stove and wood.
The arrangements will be done, sire.
Now, you must take rest.
You forgot to let the curtains down, Jodha.
My lady. Please wake up.
Lousy creature. How dare you wake me up?
Is there a storm that you had to wake me up?
My lady.
What? Let us go, immediately.
Do what I am asking you to do.
Send soldiers to Jalal right now.
Why are you here?
I have told you earlier, emperor.
I know that we are husband and wife.
But, we don't have any relationship.
Why don't you understand? I am alone here.
There is a storm outside.
I didn't expect that you would take advantage...
...of the situation like this, emperor.
Jodha, you have misunderstood! I was just...
Don't give me any justification, emperor.
I am here only to respect mother's words.
I am alone in this room with you so that she doesn't feel hurt.
This doesn't mean you can do anything you wish...
...and whatever you want to do.
I am going out of here right now.
Stop, lady Jodha.
Lady Jodha, it is very cold outside and you will fall ill.
This weather is colder than your biting words.
The storm outside is as bad as the storm inside.
I will tolerate it and face it, as well.
Lady Jodha.
Lady Jodha. Come inside. Come with me.
You have misunderstood. I didn't intend to do anything wrong.
Come on.
Jodha. You will fall ill in this cold weather.
You are the queen of the Mughal empire.
Come inside.
I know where my place is.
Now, I don't trust you.
Fine, Jodha. Let me see for how long the fire of your anger...
...will keep you warm.
Goodnight, Jodha.
She doesn't listen to anyone where her whim is concerned.
She has made herself, unwell.
Don't touch me.
Khwaja Sera. How is the queen, now?
We are trying our best.
Motibai. Crush this herb nicely for the pack.
It should be completely fine and in a powdery state.
Can I talk to the emperor, alone?
'Why does she want to talk to Jalal alone?'
'I must know.'
Without a doubt.
All of us are worried about Jodha's health.
Everyone here is close to Jodha.
You can talk without fear in front of everyone.
Even I want to know.
Without a doubt.
But, I need to talk to the emperor alone.
Tell me. What do you want to talk to me about?
We have done what we could do, emperor.
But, the body of the queen is too cold.
There is no movement.
Her heartbeat has slowed.
The medicines are not working.
There is only one way to save lady Jodha's life.
She should be brought back to her senses.
Her blood needs to be warmed up to do that.
Only her husband, that is you, can help her.
I am sure you know what is to be done as her husband.
Give me the permission to leave.
