Greetings, Jalal.
Greetings.
I think you should go off to sleep.
I will.
Tell me something, Jalal.
You seem very happy. What is the matter?
Because of the letter of Jodha.
Oh Lord. This is amazing, Jalal.
Congratulations.
Our emperor has become an ordinary man.
The stone has started melting.
I should go off to sleep.
No, Jalal. Jalal, queen Jodha is the first queen...
...who was given so much of time to know and understand you.
Queen Jodha has expressed her love for you.
You must give her a reply with love.
Queen Jodha sent you a message to call you to her room.
You must go, Jalal.
Should I give you a tip?
It may so happen that when you go to queen Jodha...
...she will feel a little shy.
Maybe she will throw some tantrums.
It may so happen that because of her fear...
...she may refuse for something.
But don't assume that Jodha doesn't love you.
That is why I am telling you.
You should go to queen Jodha.
Your love is waiting for you.
Good night, aunt.
Good night, Jalal.
"Maham Anga!"
Moti, please help me take off this bangle.
Your Majesty, you?!
You are here at this hour?
There was no announcement made today.
Even you didn't ask for my permission...
...before you sent the letter, Queen Jodha.
What you had mentioned in the letter, Queen Jodha...
...you could have come and told me that personally.
I had thought so.
But I couldn't muster the courage.
I didn't know how to say it.
How could I say that the person whom I hated so much...
...once upon a time, today that person...
Queen Jodha.
Come here.
Do you see this hand, Queen Jodha?
When I had handled the reins of a horse for the first time...
...at that moment, these hands had shook.
When I had beheaded my enemy for the first time...
...this hand had shook.
When I had realized my responsibilities of the...
...coronation of the Mughal empire,
at that moment, these hands had shook.
Do you know when these hands shook the most?
The day I got married to you.
When your hand was given in my hand.
To marry you was my biggest challenge.
Because I wanted to win you.
I wanted to win you and keep you in my women's quarter.
I wanted to control you, Queen Jodha.
Gradually everything changed.
I wanted that... that you should understand me.
The one I wanted to win over, she has defeated me today.
You won't believe, Queen Jodha...
...I am so happy with your letter.
But still, I want to hear from you.
Is it really true?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Each and every word that I wrote in that letter...
...was what I actually felt for you.
Excellent!
Excellent, Queen Jodha.
Queen Jodha, you are the first and the only person...
...who had me and still rejected me.
Who stood bravely in front of me, and never bowed.
You have as much pride and respect as much anger I have.
I might be a heartless person but...
No, Your Majesty.
I have understood one thing. You are not a heartless person.
You definitely portray yourself to be heartless...
...but there is a good human being hidden in you.
Queen Jodha.
What you have written from your heart in the letter...
...I want to tell you the same thing, but...
But what, Your Majesty?
The Jalaluddin who fearlessly commands his entire empire...
...his entire army, he can't understand...
...how to tell you this.
Your Majesty, you need not be scared.
You need not hesitate.
Just say whatever is in your heart.
The Jalaluddin who never bowed in front of anyone...
...hands over himself to you, today.
And as per your wish...
...I am yours and you are mine.
This... What are you doing, Your Majesty?
Queen Jodha, I am doing what you...
...wrote in your letter.
I wrote in the letter?!
But I didn't write any such thing in the letter, Your Majesty.
I have only thanked you for the justice you did.
I appreciated you.
I only consider you as my friend. That's it.
People are right, Queen Jodha.
There is something in a woman's heart...
...and she says something else.
It is you who called me, and now you are just harassing me.
Huh?
Your Majesty, I think you are mistaken.
I don't have anything like that on my mind.
Queen Jodha, now you... don't harass me so much.
Why are you feeling so shy?
You are my wife, I am your husband.
Say whatever is in your heart.
No, Your Majesty.
What happened, Queen Jodha?
You are not in your senses.
You have drunk a lot of alcohol.
I agree that we are married and I consider you as my friend.
But I don't love you, Your Majesty.
Jodha, it's you who called me. So why this callousness?
Your Majesty!
I didn't give you the invitation to come here, Your Majesty.
And I hadn't written anything in the letter...
...that would make you think so.
Your Majesty.
No!
It is true that I used to hate you.
I used to think that you are not a good human being.
But gradually with the passage of time...
...I felt my opinion about you is wrong.
I felt that there is also a good human being in you.
Whatever you did in Tasneem's matter...
...whatever you did to keep my honor intact...
...to save me from humiliation...
...that showed me your virtues.
But, Your Majesty, it doesn't mean I love you.
Love is a different emotion.
I respect you.
I don't love you.
I am ready to adapt myself as per your wish.
But I am not ready to share my body...
...and soul with you, Your Majesty.
"I accept that I love you."
"I have written each and every word..."
"...of that letter from my heart for you."
"Whatever is in your heart, say it. You will feel better."
"Your Majesty."
Here it is! Here it is!
The storm I was waiting for,
it is here!
Privacy.
"I didn't give you the invitation to come here, Your Majesty."
You called me and insulted me so much, Queen Jodha.
"I don't love you."
"I am ready to adapt myself as per your wish."
"But I am not ready to share my body..."
"...and soul with you, Your Majesty."
When you didn't love me, why did you send that...
...message to me, Queen Jodha?
I won't... forgive you, Queen Jodha.
Forgive me, chief.
But I am not able to understand...
...the reason of your laughter.
Have you ever seen a wounded tiger, Resham?
When a tiger is wounded, it becomes more dangerous.
He changes his hunting style and enjoys hunting.
What do you want to say, chief?
I can't understand anything.
If you could have understood, then wouldn't you...
...have been in my place today, stupid?
Many times, the hunter gets trapped in his own snare.
Queen Jodha has hunted down the Moghul emperor, Jalal.
And the arrow that has hit Jalal is Mr Ramtanu.
Wow!
What a game I have played!
But no one knows who the player behind this game is.
That is me.
I have played a game by making them my pawns.
They all danced to my tunes.
Me, Maham Anga!
Wow, Maham Anga!
What a game you have played!
Amazing!
In true sense, you are capable of being...
...the minister of the Moghul empire.
I salute you.
Do you know, Resham?
Today a big rift has been created...
...between Jalal and Queen Jodha.
From today onwards, they will be restless and I will be at peace.
The fire will burn there and I will add fuel to the fire.
Me, Maham Anga.
I have started the revenge for my adorable son Adham Khan.
And it will reach its conclusion.
And the result would be that Queen Jodha...
...will go away from this palace forever.
And this is my promise.
"Maham Anga!"
What is going on, Mir Saman?
Hello, minister.
Munim Khan has sent Abul Mali's treasury...
...and women from Kabul.
I'm just making a receipt for the same.
Send the entire booty to Queen Ruqaiya.
She will decide what she wants to keep and...
...what she wants to distribute among other Queens.
Yes, ma'am.
And all the maids who have come from Abul Mali's place...
...send some to our women's quarter...
...and allot work to the rest.
And in my...
What is this, Mir Saman?
It looks like a cage.
But doesn't look like, there's a bird inside.
The cage is very huge.
What is it, Mir Saman?
Consider it a bird, ma'am.
Capricious like a bird, exceptional and...
...it is also very precious.
It has many virtues.
Is that so?
What virtues does it have?
If a man sees it, his focus gets diverted.
His colors, behavior, everything changes.
Really?
Believe me, ma'am.
It holds a strange power.
People lose control as soon as they see it.
Come on, let's see.
You, soldier.
Order me, ma'am.
What is your name?
-My name is... -Stop.
First look inside this cage and then tell your name.
Come on, see inside.
Now tell your name.
My... my name...
My name...
What is it?
Did you see that, ma'am?
Excellent!
I think Jalal will like my gift very much.
No, mother.
Keep it for my husband, Adham Khan.
Whenever you open your mouth, you only talk nonsense.
If you talk too much, I will lock you in...
...this cage for the rest of your life.
Do you use your brain more outside?
Move back.
Mir Saman.
Send this cage to my chamber.
Yes, ma'am.
Sir, as per your order, the new law has been...
...sent to every city of the empire.
And a warning has been issued...
...that this law should be followed strictly.
"Maham Anga!"
Sir, what is your next order?
"Everyone is astonished, but I am not at all."
"Forget about the court..."
"I know that Jalal won't be able to concentrate anywhere."
"Maham Anga!"
Jalal.
What happened, Jalal? What is the matter?
Without saying anything, you left the court.
Are you fine? Huh?
You were very happy last evening.
Today suddenly what happened?
What made me happy yesterday...
...today the same thing is troubling me, aunt.
You are upset because of Queen Jodha?
What... what happened?
Forgive me. I don't want to talk about it.
I just want to go from here.
I want to talk to Queen Ruqaiya.
What does Jalal want to talk to Queen Ruqaiya about?
What did I do last night, Lord?
I committed a huge mistake.
I will have to go to His Majesty and apologize to him.
I must have surely committed a mistake in writing the letter.
That is why, he was changed last night.
But I clearly remember, I didn't write anything...
...in the letter that made him behave like that.
Then from where did the problem arise?
Queen Jodha.
Greetings.
May I ask where are you going so early in the morning?
By the way, I am not answerable to you.
Even then I will tell you that I am going to His Majesty.
I want to tell him something.
That is not possible.
"Maham Anga!"
It won't be possible to meet him at this moment, Queen Jodha.
Yes, if I can help you, like if you want to know about...
...the condition of His Majesty,
let me tell you that His Majesty looks very lost.
He seems to be very happy.
What?!
He is happy?
Yes.
He seems to be happier than he usually is.
Forgive me.
But as a minister, I would tell you...
...not to interfere in His Majesty's state affairs.
Permit me to leave.
"Maham Anga!"
Wow! Wonderful tunes! And marvellous composition.
I wish to hear him again and again.
That's why head queen has sent a special invitation...
...to Mr Rantanu, to sing once again...
...for the special women in the harem.
I had heard that in one of his concert,
...the color of the women's dresses had changed...
...with one of his musical notes.
Really?
Then I'll wear a blue dress.
Because I don't like that colour.
And if it's colour changed, I'd be very happy.
Hoshiyar, today's concert is very special for me.
So, arrange for a best dress for me for this evening.
I want to look the most beautiful.
Get me a drink.
Didn't you hear me? Get me a drink.
What's the matter, Jalal?
You look very disturbed.
Come, I'll give you a massage.
You'll feel better and relaxed.
You please go away, Ruqaiya.
Jalal!
If you're disturbed with something...
...you have the right to get angry on me.
But tell me what the matter is.
It's no matter, Ruqaiya.
Are you angry with me? Never mind.
If you avoided me, no complaints.
But I want to know what's bothering you.
I'm sorry. I was very furious.
And honestly speaking...
...I'm really very angry at the moment.
Last night, after the celebration...
Salutation, His Majesty.
The Empress has come to see you.
She need not wait for my permission.
Send her in.
Jalal, we'll talk about this later.
Salutation, mother.
Yesterday, the celebration was splendid, Jalal.
Mr Ramtanu had mesmerized everyone.
Everyone wishes to hear him again.
I've requested him to sing again.
And he instantly agreed?
Immediately.
He's very noble and mannerly person.
I came to tell you the same thing.
You must be present in the concert, tomorrow.
Sure, mother.
What happened?
You look very disturbed.
Nothing, mother.
Feeling little tired. That's it.
I'll wait for you.
Jalal is angry because...
Don't you think you should take my permission...
...before entering my room, Maham Anga?
Certainly, I should, Begum Ruqaiya.
But right now, I want to tell you something...
...that is more important.
Jalal went to Begum Jodha and she turned him down.
Begum Jodha is reaching close to your position.
Very close.
And it's your responsibility to stop her from doing so.
I'm least bothered about Begum Jodha.
But did you do anything to maintain...
...your position, Begum Ruqaiya?
Don't try to instigate or provoke me, Maham Anga.
I don't need to do anything like that.
I'm reminding you about the duty of a wife.
And what a Begum should do to make her place.
What?
Divert...
Divert Jalal's attention from Begum Jodha.
I agree Jalal hates Begum Jodha at the moment.
But always remember this.
Too much of love and too much of hatred...
...generally crosses limits.
What do you mean?
I have a plan...
...to separate Jalal from Begum Jodha.
Do as you like but don't involve me.
As you wish, Begum Ruqaiya.
It's OK if you don't wish to be a part of this plan.
But I'll do my duty.
Because, I don't want anyone else...
...to come in between you and Jalal.
Especially, a princess of some princely state.
I'll try my best to safeguard Jalal and your relation.
Permit me to leave.
Your Majesty!
I want to talk...
Don't you know that no one is allowed to enter...
...my room without permission?
Go from here.
May I come in, Your Majesty?
Never!
I'm very busy at the moment. You can go.
I'll tell you what I want to.
You may or may not give me the permission.
-Jodha... -I know I've committed a crime.
But I'm ready to accept any punishment.
But you must listen to me.
Privacy!
Last night, you...
I haven't forgotten the last night's incident, Jodha Begum.
Even I am not able to forget about it.
And I very well remember...
...what I had written in the letter.
And even I remember...
...what you had written to me in that letter.
And how you behaved with me after that!
No one has humiliated me to this extent in life.
Don't humiliate me more by recalling that incident.
Your Majesty, you...
I told you, Jodha Begum.
For your misbehaviour with me...
...I wish to kill you. And at the moment...
...I don't want to see your face.
So, its better that you leave.
I will leave.
But only after giving you an explanation for last night.
I may have disappointed you.
But you were not in your senses.
You wanted to take our friendship one step ahead...
...to a physical intimacy.
There was lust in your eyes for a woman.
-But no love. -Yes, of course, Jodha Begum.
There was no love for you in my eyes.
How could you even think that I'll love you?
What do you think of yourself?
That you're very beautiful?
You'll write a letter and I'll run to you?
No, Jodha Begum.
You're one of those thousands wives in the harem...
...who yearn for my company. That's it.
Go from here.
Sorry to disturb, Your Majesty.
Minister...
Tell her, I'm coming.
Aunt, do you remember the letter...
...Jodha Begum wrote to me and you read it for me?
Yes, Jalal.
"How can I forget that, Jalal?"
"I had used that letter to set your relation afire."
"Maham Anga!"
Of course, I remember, Jalal.
But why do you think about that letter now?
Are you sure, you read the letter word by word...
...exactly the way it was written?
-I mean... -What do you mean, Jalal?
Undoubtedly.
I read the same matter that...
...Begum Jodha had written in the letter.
Do you not believe me? I keep all your letters carefully.
Why will I make any changes in Begum Jodha's letter?
What will I gain?
This is the letter.
Give it to someone else and tell him to read out...
...for your confirmation.
No need, aunt. I believe you.
I wonder why Jodha Begum is refusing...
...to have written those words in this letter.
That's because you trust Begum Jodha...
...more than me, Jalal.
So much that you doubted your aunt, Jalal.
It's also possible that Begum Jodha made a mistake in...
...expressing herself.
Or it's quite possible that Begum Jodha...
...is avenging for all the insults...
...done by you knowingly or unknowingly.
No, Jalal. You...
You take this letter to someone else.
Get it confirmed.
Aunt, I said it's not needed.
-But... -Stop thinking about it, Jalal.
This doesn't suit an emperor.
You look too disturbed.
Relaxation will lighten your burden in this condition.
Mr Ramtanu has agreed to sing and make...
...the musical night a memorable one...
...once again on empress' request.
So, come. Get ready to attend the concert.
I don't feel like.
You're an emperor, Jalal.
Many a times, an emperor has to do...
...many things against his wishes.
But shall I say something?
Today you've a special reason to attend this event.
What reason?
I've got you a special gift.
Such a gift that you'll be proud to accompany with...
...in the event.
Would you like to see?
Tell me, Jalal.
Isn't this a rarest gift?
Worth taking along in the royal court?
Mr Ramtanu hasn't come yet.
He's a musician. He'll come when he wishes.
I'm already wearing a blue dress.
I wonder how much he'll keep me waiting.
Greetings from Ramtanu Pandey to all the women.
Before I present my song to you...
...I'd like to know why I should sing for you.
I'd like to answer you, Mr Ramtanu.
Like your music has a magic of seven notes,
your seven notes depicts all the colours of India.
Similarly, even in this harem...
...there's colour of every region of India.
People of every religion and region are present here.
As you said, that your music affects everyone in the same way.
Now, I'd like everyone present here...
...may he be of any region or religion...
...should get lost in your melodious voice and be one.
Marvelous!
One of our Begum is also from the princely state.
Greetings to queen Jodha.
Alert!
His Majesty, Jalaluddin Mohammed is coming.
In this event, I'd request my special wife...
...Ruqaiya Begum to come and sit next to me.
And to sit on my other side, I'd invite her...
...who has recently become very special to me.
You get my special gift.
"Maham Anga!"
Hey, pull the curtain.
Oh, I forgot.
Maham Anga!
Only my special wives have the right to sit at this place.
But for the first time today, I'll allow...
...my special gift to sit besides me.
"Maham Anga!"
What happened, Mr Ramtanu?
Is her eyes sharper than my dagger?
Did it do the same thing that my dagger did?
Undoubtedly!
I was defocused.
I lost my melodies.
But... but only for a few moments.
But today, I'll definitely sing.
For the beauty, I've never seen before in life.
Come.
Your Majesty, she's Benazir.
An extraordinary artist from Abul Mali's harem.
Come... come and sit beside me.
Mr Ramtanu, you may proceed.
Yes.
"Ever since you've settled in my eyes,
I find the world beautiful."
"Yesterday, there was storm."
"Ever since..."
"And today it is a hurricane."
"...you've settled in my eyes,"
"I find the world beautiful."
"Now my love for you has reached depth."
"Ever since you've settled in my eyes, I find the world beautiful."
Aunt.
Begum Jodha, I want to tell you something.
Should I say it here or...
Tell me.
As you wish.
His Majesty has ordered you to leave this concert.
His Majesty doesn't want your presence in this event.
"Maham Anga!"
Salutation, Your Majesty.
Jodha Begum wants to see you.
Send her in.
Why did you come here?
I didn't call you.
Or do you want me to insult you and kick you out, like you did?
I've come to return this to you.
You had given it to me to wear in the event.
But when you didn't invite me, I don't need it.
"Jodha Begum, I was coming to you."
"I want you to wear this bangle in the event."
Good you returned it to me.
Marvelous!
You're looking very pretty.
It's all your grace, Your Majesty.
You've gifted me such a beautiful dress.
Did you like it?
Yes.
Benazir, actually we've a tailor in the harem...
...who is an expert in stitching beautiful dresses.
So, I ordered him to stitch this unparallel dress for you.
It's all your grace, Your Majesty.
I think I should leave now.
Begum is present here.
Not at all.
Her job is done.
By the way, I have one more thing for you.
Did you like it?
Of course.
It's a very pretty arm ornament.
Certainly.
But I feel this will look beautiful...
...if you wear it somewhere else rather than the arm.
Now it is definitely looking very pretty.
Want to say anything else, Jodha Begum?
Do you need something?
It seems she's the most loved Begum of yours.
I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I shouldn't say that.
But the truth is that you just...
...can't take your eyes off her.
And till date this has never happened...
...that someone would overlook me for someone else.
"His Majesty has ordered you to leave this event, Begum Jodha."
"His Majesty doesn't want your presence in this event."
"What do you think of yourself?"
"That you're very beautiful?"
"You'll write a letter And I'll run to you?"
"No, Jodha Begum."
"I think I should leave now."
"Begum is present here."
"Not at all."
"Her job is done."
Jodha, it's so cold out here.
I feel cold even in the room. And you?
You're standing here in this cold breeze?
Here, wear this or else you'll catch cold.
I don't want it.
My anger is sharp enough that I am on fire!
His Majesty insulted me in the royal court.
He has insulted a princely state's princess.
And he told me to leave the event?
And when I went to his room to talk to him...
...in front of her he said he has no time for me.
After such humiliation, I wish to bury myself alive.
But in front of whom did the emperor say that?
What?
You just said that emperor told you in front of her.
In front of whom?
One, whom he gave a seat besides him...
...and Ruqaiya Begum in the royal court.
But what is she doing in the emperor's chamber right now?
How would I know?
And what a strange question is this?
Do I keep an account of who comes to his room...
...and with whom does he spend his night?
That day...
That day, he was blabberring something else...
...in a drunken state and now... Disgusting!
I feel ashamed of thinking about it.
Jodha, it's possible that you had an illusion.
I've got an illusion?
It's useless talking to you, Moti.
You're always taking his side.
Go away. Leave me alone. Go!
