So, this is the treatment that Khwaja Sera has given for Jodha?
If a sage or even if the angels came and told me...
...that Jalal has fallen in love with Jodha...
...I will still not believe it.
You are laughing, minister.
Is it over the bad fortune of Ruqaiya?
No, Resham.
I am not laughing at the bad fortune of Ruqaiya.
I am laughing at the bad fortune of Jodha.
Come, Adham.
Mother. You are still awake?
I have heard something has happened to Jodha.
It hasn't happened, Adham. It is about to happen.
-What? -She will lose what I want her to.
What is it, mother?
Jalal's interest in Jodha.
You don't understand, right?
Never mind. I will explain, Adham.
Adham.
A kid is eager to get a toy, till he gets the toy.
When he gets the toy...
...he plays with it for a while.
Then, he loses interest in that toy.
After that, that toy keeps lying in some corner of the room.
Mother, I don't understand anything.
Jalal had an interest in Jodha until he got to be with her.
Now, when he gets her, Jalal will lose interest in her.
Think it over. Jodha was special till Amer.
She has become ordinary at Agra.
Adham. Don't think so hard!
Let what has to happen go ahead and happen.
This is all very good.
Now, we can get rid of the fear caused by Jodha.
That is why, go away and sleep peacefully.
Okay, mother.
If you say so.
I am leaving.
The medicines won't work anymore.
There is only one way to save the life of lady Jodha.
She should be brought to her senses.
To do this, her blood needs to be warmed up.
You alone can help her, as her husband.
How did I come here?
Who else other than me can dare to get you here?
'Don't touch me.'
Give her the medication.
Moti, tell me the truth.
I hope, nothing wrong happened to me, last night?
So, you want me to tell you what happened...
...between you and the king, last night?
Okay, I'll tell you what happened.
I'll tell you, lady Jodha.
Actually, you became Jalal's wife in the true sense, last night.
I'm very happy.
Accept a small gift from me for my happiness.
Permit me.
Jodha, I'm very happy.
At least now, Jalal will show less interest in you.
You must take rest. You need it.
Goodbye.
My lord, thank God that the sky is clear.
The storm has also passed.
The road ahead is clear.
Order us. When do you wish to leave?
My lord.
Jodha, you are unwell.
You shouldn't have come out like this.
Please, come inside with me.
Tell me, lady Jodha.
You can never imagine what I have suffered.
Your Highness, tell me.
Last night, did you...
Jodha, think of it as the need of the hour...
...or helplessness, but I had to do it.
There was no need to do anything like that...
...or helplessness, that would make a king break his promise.
What would've happened?
I would've died. You should've left me to die...
...but, why did you break your promise?
Enough, lady Jodha.
You don't explain to me what a king and husband has to do.
Saving your life was my responsibility...
...and I fulfilled that.
Keeping a promise is also a king's responsibility.
Just tell me once, that you didn't do anything like that.
Your Highness, I wouldn't mourn my death...
...but, I don't wish to endure something...
...I had not permitted you to do.
Jodha, I'm a king.
I can do anything without anybody's permission.
I did what was important.
I said, what I felt like doing.
If the need arises, I'll do it again.
No one can stop me.
'The Mughal caravan was moving ahead to Agra.'
'Thoughts were racing uncontrollably in Jodha's mind.'
'Jodha didn't remember a single moment of the last night.'
'She somehow wanted to remember...
...that king didn't do anything to her.'
'But what had happened couldn't be changed...
...either by Jodha or her thoughts.'
'A messenger who had come from Agra...
...with a message to Jalal, got lost on the way.'
'He couldn't meet the Mughal caravan.'
'What was the important message that...
...had come from Agra for Jalal?'
'Jalal would know about this only after reaching Agra.'
Greetings, gentlemen.
Greetings.
When a king comes, he is welcomed and not stopped.
Seeing you all here, I can guess that...
...the matter must be serious.
The matter is serious and legal too.
All the courtiers and the public...
...expect from the king that he would respect...
...the religion and his people.
Whatever you did in Amer, hurt our religion.
You went to the temple with queen Jodha.
You insulted our religion by bowing your head to the idol.
You prayed in their way.
This is against our religion.
Agreed, that the king is superior in the kingdom...
...but, religion is superior to him.
The king should respect his religion...
...and he should proceed according to it's dictates.
A king is called as 'Zille Ilahi' which means...
...the shadow of God.
If the king himself does something...
...whereby our religion and God is upset...
...then, a king doesn't have any right to sit on the throne.
'Oh God, how did they know Jalal went to the temple?'
I have answers for all your question, but I...
Wait, Jalal. Let me talk to them.
Gentlemen and priests, history has witnessed that...
...since the foundation of the Mughal kingdom...
...was laid in India...
...since then to till date, from the former king Babar...
...to my husband, and even Jalal...
...have done things according to the rules and regulations...
...of the religion.
You are right, Your Majesty.
Till today, the need didn't arise for us to stand before him.
But, this time he has made a mistake...
...that cannot be ignored.
The whole kingdom is upset with him, not only us.
We have to answer to the God and the people.
So, if the king has to reach the throne...
...he has to walk over our corpses.
Yes. As long as we are alive, Jalaluddin Mohammed...
...can't sit on the throne of the Mughal kingdom.
Excuse me.
Why can't the king sit on the throne?
I would like to ask...
...who will stop the king from sitting on the throne?
Lady Maham Anga, you don't have any right...
...to interfere in this matter.
I have the right. I have every right.
I follow the same religion, which you follow.
So, I have a right to offer my opinion.
You are scholars, superiors, priests...
...you are men of foresight.
You should show the way to the king and the subjects...
...and not stop him!
Your work is to follow the norms and not revolt.
Stopping the king like this in the path, shows that...
...you don't consider him as your own overlord.
If there's a clash between the thoughts...
...there's a way to sort it out, revolt won't help.
Your position is very high.
You all believe that the king, is the 'Zille Illahi'...
...which means shadow of God.
Then, tell me one thing, has the king ever gone...
...against the norms of God?
As far I know, the king loves his religion and God very much.
The king is the shadow of God.
He is not God, he is a human being.
A human being tends to err and...
...it is possible that you think that the king has made a mistake.
Well, it is your duty to advice him and reform him...
...instead of being stubborn and punishing him.
By being stubborn, revolting and punishing him...
...you are making the king and the subjects...
...go away from you.
Gentlemen, I don't have any doubts about this.
I think, you may forget one thing.
But, let me remind you, that we exist because of the king.
The Mughal kingdom is not based on religion in India...
...it is because of the king that the flag of Islam...
...has been hoisted in the whole country.
I apologise to you for arguing with you, as a woman.
God should forgive me for this.
But, as the minister of the Mughal kingdom...
...if I don't speak up today...
...then, God will not give me a place even in hell.
Gentlemen, you are scholars of all the religions.
You are priests and you don't have any right to...
...stop the king.
Every path leads from religion, Shamshuddin.
Whatever Maham Anga said was right.
The king's responsibility is to take care of his subjects.
Today, all the people are with us.
He has to answer the questions of the people.
Or he can't go till the throne.
Oh God, I don't know what will happen.
I don't know whether Jalal got my message or not.
What will the priests do?
I don't know what to do!
Hoshiyar, what's the news?
The king is here.
I guess, he didn't get your message.
My queen, there's chaos at the royal gate, outside.
Oh God, I don't know what will happen.
You come with me.
Okay.
I'll answer them.
What a true Muslim is and what are his duties...
...I learnt that from you.
I still believe in one God.
I offer prayers, 5 times a day.
I give donations. Every word of the Quran is...
...rote knowledge for me.
As a king, I always make a decision guided by religious law.
Tell me, didn't I do my duty?
You forgot about religion, while doing your duty.
We are not allowed to pray to an idol.
It is a sin to follow other religions.
You've committed that very sin.
Going to the temple was wrong.
Bowing down your head to the idol was a sin.
So that's the issue.
I would like to ask you some questions, now.
As I was told, I clearly remember that...
...where I was born, where were the prayers performed...
...for my first birthday.
Priest, do you remember that it was you who prayed for me?
Yes, I remember it.
I prayed for you and performed the rites.
-Which place was it? -It was Umerkot.
Do you remember where you prayed for my first birthday?
-In the temple. -I have already been to a temple.
He had come to pray for me, it was a Hindu king's temple.
If this is a sin, then it began from you.
You were the one who came to the temple...
...and prayed for me.
Priest, religion is not based on the land...
...religion is accepted from the heart.
The same God is in my heart, till today.
God's devotion is still in my heart.
The only difference is, you are mistaken...
...and you are unable to see that devotion.
If you permit me, can I go inside?
Your intentions are good, but you have erred.
You have to do one thing to rectify that.
You did this, for queen Jodha.
You wouldn't have followed her, if she hadn't gone there.
So, to rectify this sin, you'll have to...
...convert queen Jodha to Islam.
That is the only way.
Excuse me, but religious decisions are made...
...after thinking over it, thoroughly.
This is not the right place for this good deed...
...nor is it the right time.
I request you to give us one night.
Aunt is right.
We will settle this in the special court, tomorrow.
I want you all to be present there.
Adham, why do you look so worried?
Mother, you've created a mess.
This was the right opportunity...
...as all the priests and scholars were against Jalal.
Mother, Jalal's throne could have been taken!
Mother, my dream could've come true.
You didn't support me.
You supported Jalal. Why?
You don't want to see me as the king.
Adham, I really want to see you sitting on the throne.
God knows how much I love my son...
...but, I don't doubt how much I love Jalal.
It is my dream that you should take over the throne of...
...this Mughal kingdom.
But, to turn this dream into reality...
...I would not wish to throw Jalal from the throne.
You may forget, but I'll never forget that...
...we are what we are today because of Jalal.
You are commander-in-chief and I'm the minister...
...only because of Jalal.
Or we are not worth more than a maid and a slave.
Adham, what's the guarantee that the priests would...
...make you sit on the throne after Jalal's exit?
No, Adham. You keep dreaming of becoming a king.
If it was possible to become a king by dreaming...
...then, the whole country would've become king.
If you want to become a king, then do something...
...that the king does.
Do something by which even your mother should...
...feel that my son is worthier than Jalal to sit on the throne.
The fact is that you are rage personified...
...and you will fall down and break.
You are not worthy of anything!
Mother!
I'm glad you controlled yourself and your hand.
I think, you've forgotten that I am your mother.
But remember one thing, that Jalal never forgets...
...or will never forget that I am his aunt.
He just addresses me as aunt...
...but, I am your mother.
Listen to me carefully.
I am the minister of the Mughal kingdom besides being your mother.
Adham, the next time you try to do such things to me...
...and if Jalal learns about this...
...then, I won't be able to save you from his anger.
Have I taught you to do this?
Are you going to hit your mother?
Have you become so shameless and insolent?
You better go away from here.
Go away from here.
King, you summoned me.
For the first time today...
...they tried to stop me.
If they had not been the superiors of our religion...
...their severed heads would be lying in front of me.
I stopped myself, because they are priests.
No one would dare to question me...
...or my loyalty towards my religion and duty.
It is not just my insult, but an insult to our ancestors...
...and my loyalty towards the Mughals. I can't tolerate it.
I just want to know how the priests knew about it.
Even we don't know, sire.
But, the priest has given a solution for this problem.
Queen Jodha should either convert to Islam...
...or leave the Mughal kingdom.
What did you say?
Sire, what can I say?
I was just telling you what the priest said.
As far our religion goes, we have full faith in you.
We are sure that anything you do will be...
...better for the religion and Mughal kingdom.
If I've made any mistake, then please forgive me.
I would just like to tell you that...
...we used to obey your orders, earlier...
...and we do so, even today.
These are two different matters...
...but, they are connected to each other.
On one hand, the priests have their demands...
...and on the other, the question arises that...
...how did they get to know about this?
You try to find out who is the culprit behind this conspiracy.
This was done by someone with bad intentions.
He is a traitor and he will be brought to you at any cost.
'I didn't do anything, this time.'
'Mother doesn't know anything about this.'
'Where did Jalal's new enemy come from?'
Moti, till Amer, everything was fine.
But, I don't know what happened on the way here.
I had to spend the night with the king.
Now, there's the issue of religious conversion.
I don't understand what's going on with me.
Maham Anga, Lady Ruqaiya begum! You are here?
Jodha, we are here to tell you that...
...if you had understood our problem in Amer...
...then, this chaos wouldn't have happened in Agra.
I tried to explain to you that...
...if Jalal goes to the temple, then there can be a chaos...
...in Agra, but you didn't listen to me.
You could've stopped Jalal.
Do you see for yourself...
...how many people have gone against him?
I've told you earlier, that the king came to the temple...
...of his own wish.
Queen Jodha, you are wrong.
Because, you went with him.
You went with him to the temple...
...so, it is your responsibility to...
...save the king from being questioned.
If you wish everything to settle down...
...then, you'll have to convert to Islam.
But, why?
I respect your religion, but I respect my religion too.
That is wonderful.
You say something and do something else.
On one hand, while marrying you promise...
...that you'll always support him and...
...will listen to anything he says.
Isn't your husband's religion, your religion too?
What's the big deal in accepting it?
It is your duty.
If your religious conversion can put an end to a revolution...
...the accusations against him can go away...
...then I feel that you should convert.
The king has done so much for you and your family.
Lady Jodha, you can at least do this for him.
'Ladies and gentlemen, listen carefully!'
'The successor of the throne...
...king Jalaluddin Mohammed is coming inside!'
What are you all doing here?
We all have come here to explain to lady Jodha...
...not to make the matter worse, but resolve it.
Until the priest comes here...
...Jodha should get prepared to accept Islam.
Ruqaiya, nothing like that will happen.
If she changes her religion my promise will be revoked.
I'd promised her before the wedding that...
...she can retain her religion freely, even after marriage.
My lord, forgive me.
But, the Mughal empire is at stake here.
Aunt, my promise is all about the empire, too.
A king can change his decision...
...but, he can never go back on his word.
Secondly...
...she didn't take me to the temple I went inside on my own.
I will not let anyone else face the consequences for my deeds.
-But, my lord, you... -Ruqaiya...
...is the revolution more important than my promise?
I promised Jodha that she can...
...retain her religion freely even after marriage.
It is her wish what to do now.
But, no one will force her, in this matter.
I want to talk to mother.
I'll do as she says.
Jodha says, that she will listen to whatever you say.
Tell her to convert to Islam.
Mother, your one decision can save the king...
...from being humiliated.
It won't take long. She has to read prayers...
...and accept Islam.
There won't be any changes in her life.
But, the king will be saved from humiliation.
Ruqaiya, stop arguing.
I am happy that Jodha gave me enough respect...
...that she chose me to make the final decision.
My decision means so much to her.
But, that doesn't mean I will misuse this respect.
I will not force Jodha to convert.
The king should know about his kingdom...
...but, as an elder of the family...
...I don't have any problem with Jodha following her religion.
The Mughal empire promised Jodha...
...that no one will force her to convert.
That promise won't break.
No one will force Jodha to convert.
This is my decision.
I've told all of you about my opinion.
As a king, I can never break my promise or go back on my word.
I promised Jodha that she can follow her religion.
I can't force her to accept Islam.
It will be possible only when she converts to Islam...
...of her own will and wish.
I can't break my promise...
...or go against the scholars.
Despite all this, if you tell me to leave my throne...
...then, I will give my throne to Rahim, after I leave.
I've handed over the decision to my mother, the queen.
Whatever she decides, I'll accept it.
'Hamida Begum already told her decision...
...in favour of Jodha.'
'She won't force Jodha to convert.'
Jodha had given me the responsibility to take the...
...decision of converting her religion.
My decision is that, my daughter-in-law...
...Jodha will convert to Islam.
Well done! Well done!
'Hamida Begum has played it so cleverly.'
'Great! She won Jodha's trust...
...and today, she has won Jalal's throne.'
Let's begin the auspicious task.
Your attention, please.
Sheikh Mubarak from Ajmer Sharif is coming here!
Please come.
Greetings.
Welcome, Sheikh Mubarak. I welcome you.
Welcome, we were waiting for you.
This ritual should be stopped right here.
But, why? Accepting Islam is an auspicious ritual.
Absolutely, but, without loving Islam...
...or accepting Islam because of some other reason...
...is like humiliating the religion, as well as God.
Sheikh sahab, the great scholar, Salim Chisti...
...has sent a message for the king.
Jalal, after waking up in the morning, I heard some noises.
I looked up to the sky and saw the birds flying.
I realised that the birds are very lucky.
They are free from every religion and restriction.
They are closer to God.
When God understands their chirping...
...then, what's the difference between prayers and mantras?
Jalal, I feel that you'll have to make an environment...
...like Ajmer Sharif, where love can breathe freely...
...without any political or religious restrictions.
The day you'll realise love, you'll get a gift from God.
Your loving teacher.
This is not my dream, but, this is the message...
...given to me by nature and I am sending it to you.
Because, this message is for him...
...who can change the world...
...and give freedom to the human beings...
...like He has given it to the birds.
God is to love and not to fear.
I don't think, you'll have any objection...
...to retain the king on the throne, after this message.
Right now, he is the most superior in India.
No one can understand religion and norms better than him.
When he trusts the king and his decision...
...then, who are you and we to question the king?
I don't know, if it was our Almighty or your God...
...who saved us from committing a grave sin.
It is true that without loving the religion...
...it is a sin to accept it.
We can't go against Salim Chisti's decision.
I knew that Salim Chisti's message was coming.
That is why, I gave my consent against your wishes.
So that I'd get some time while the rituals are taking place...
...and this problem gets solved.
'Wonderful, Hamida Begum.'
'You are cleverer than I thought.'
'Why didn't I see this side of your image, earlier?'
You are here?
-Actually I... -If you feel that you kept your...
...word by not commenting on my religion...
...and I will be thankful to you...
...then, I won't do that.
Because, you've broken one of your promises.
What you did with me, that night...
'Were you with me last night...
'Jodha, you can think of it as the need of the hour...
...or helplessness, but I had to do it.'
I've not forgotten that.
Yes, I remember it.
That night, I had difficulty finding a black cloth.
Black cloth?
Yes.
Your body had become cold.
Khwaja Sera told me that your body needs warmth...
...for you to regain consciousness.
She gave this responsibility to me.
Your husband had promised you.
So, I remembered the black cloth.
It is said that, if you wrap a black cloth around your body...
...it works like a heater.
It gives warmth to the body.
So, I wrapped you in the black cloth.
So, that night you didn't...
I don't need daylight to do something...
...or the darkness of night.
I promised you.
A promise is kept, regardless of day or night.
A promise is a promise and I have to fulfil it.
Then, why didn't you tell me, earlier?
Jodha, you were thinking of something else...
...before I could say that.
If I'd brought you back, you would've been troubled.
- Am I right? -Why are you telling me, now?
Because you would've been more troubled...
...if I hadn't told you this.
No one can question a king...
...so I thought, I would punish you a little.
But, when I sit on the throne...
...I reward someone.
So, I thought, I would give the answer for your question...
...as a reward.
Jodha, I'm not so cruel that I'll make my wife suffer.
I sent a message to you via a messenger...
...that all the priests have gone against you.
Is it?
But, I didn't get any message.
You don't know how worried I was.
I heard that they intoxicated elephant...
...and tried to kill you.
Ruqaiya, Hawai is loyal to me.
I controlled him.
Look, I am alright and standing in front of you.
Jalal, you are not alright.
I heard, there was a storm while returning from Amer...
...which swept you and Jodha away.
How do you know about that?
Many people were present there.
But, no one knows about this incident.
Jalal, I'm the chief consort.
I know every secret of the king.
That means you were spying on me.
What can I do? I am your friend as well as your wife.
No matter whether I spy on you or not...
...but, I know how to save you from another's eyes.
Well said, Ruqaiya. But, the truth is the truth.
Jodha and I spent the night together in the same tent.
The emperor said that he hasn't touched me.
Do you think, it is true?
Why not? Why would the emperor lie to his wife?
Besides, who can stop him from doing what he likes?
Jodha, the emperor is not scared of anyone.
He doesn't have to lie.
Jodha, even if something that has not happened...
...would have happened...
...it would be your husband's right.
It is the relationship between a husband and a wife.
It is not a game, right?
You have played around enough, Jalal!
Is your hobby taken care of?
Poor Jodha.
She will be lying around somewhere in the corner of the castle.
It is amazing, Ruqaiya.
Aren't you feeling jealous?
Jalal.
This isn't the first time that you...
...have spent the night with some other wife.
Why would I feel jealous?
You should be jealous.
Not as a friend, but as a wife, you should be jealous.
So what if I am his wife, Moti?
He doesn't have a right to touch me, unless I want it.
Now, it doesn't make a difference to me, if you think it my pride.
Jodha was very proud of herself.
You have broken her pride.
Now, she will be lying around in a corner of the harem.
She will wait for the night that will probably never ever come.
These women have strange thought processes.
I will never be able to understand them.
As a friend, they are something else.
And as a wife, they are different.
It could be Salima, Jodha or it could be her too.
-Go. -Greetings, mother.
Jodha, my dear.
Come in.
Oh, dear.
Sit close to me. Tell me. What brings you here?
I want to thank you.
You have kept my faith safe, mother.
If you hadn't been here...
...I don't know who I could have trusted.
Trust Jalal.
Yes, dear.
Jalal wants to keep your right safe.
I came to know about this at the time...
...when he left the decision of changing...
...or keeping your faith up to you.
In our religion, the husband's decision about changing...
...the religion has a lot of importance.
I didn't know about this, mother.
But, I know for a fact that you have respected my religion.
I am grateful to you for that.
Jodha, my dear.
A human being's first religion is humanity.
And I have seen...
...that you have done the duty of humanity, very well.
You saved Rahim from drowning in the water.
You got Moti back from the throes of death.
You have saved Jalal's life.
After completing these duties...
...it doesn't make a difference as to which religion you follow.
I have faith in you too, mother.
You have always helped me to fulfil my duties.
Regardless of the kind of situation it is.
That is why, I left the decision of accepting Islam for me on you.
I would like to tell you again.
Even if you wouldn't have left this decision on me...
...Jalal wouldn't have let his promise go unfulfilled.
Today, I am giving you my word.
Even in the future, as far as your religion is concerned...
...whatever you wish, will be followed.
