Emperor!
Emperor.
I have not come to thank you for releasing father.
Neither did I come to ask you, why did you forgive him?
I want to know, why didn't you taunt me?
Why didn't you get angry? Why didn't you punish me?
A grave incident took place and you are quiet.
Your silence is hurting me.
My sister has hurt brother-in-law's feelings.
I want you to punish me.
Shout at me. Get angry on me.
But, don't be silent.
Your silence is hurting me, emperor!
Lady Jodha, you are right.
This silence hurts a human being, right?
Do you know, when my brother was waiting to get married...
...he was quiet?
Do you know when he came to know...
...that your sister has eloped with her lover...
...he was quiet even then?
He is still quiet.
But, there is a fire inside him. He is in pain.
His eyes spoke of it, in his sleep.
When it comes to punishing you...
...I don't need your permission for that.
But, I believe in punishing the real culprit.
The real culprit...
...is your sister and her lover who have eloped.
Do they think that they will save themselves from me?
Our empire is so huge. I have so many contacts...
...that it will be difficult for them to run away from me.
They have disgraced my family and the Mughal Empire.
They have hurt my brother's feelings.
I will punish them for their mistake.
My soldiers have left to search for them.
They will be caught and brought to me very soon.
-Emperor! -Enough!
"This is love."
"You can't hurt the person whom you love."
Jodha, I don't want to hear or say anything.
I just want you to realise that...
...a human can hurt from within.
Gulfam, you came back very soon.
Sir, how did you know that it was me?
Imprisonment teaches you many things.
Here you don't get to see or hear anything.
A human being can understand how the wind blows too.
Forget that. Tell me, did you bring any special news?
Sir. I have got to know...
...who is the pawn of Abul Mali in the royal palace?
Tell me quickly.
A maid from Abul Mali's harem.
Did you bring a pen and paper?
Yes.
Go and give this to lady Jodha quickly.
At once.
Benazir!
Thank you.
Oh, God! How do I tell Benazir? She may bite me.
How do I tell her that the snakes that we had are dead?
She may bite me, in a fit of anger.
Oh, God!
Benazir!
What are you doing?
Are you mad?
Don't waste your poison in this manner.
-I don't have the dose. -What?
Why didn't you tell me?
Why are you alive?
You know...
...that I need my dose, under any circumstances.
I am addicted to it!
Without that, I feel restless.
Speak softly.
If anyone hears you, then we will be put to death.
Zakira, what are you looking at?
Go and arrange for my dose.
Zakira, I have very little time.
If I don't kill Jalal, then Abul Mali will kill me.
First of all, lady Jodha is troubling me so much...
...that it is difficult to meet the emperor.
Who is fighting?
You are giving me such bad news.
-Go. -Take care of yourself.
Go.
Jodha!
What happened, Moti?
-There is a message for you. -From where?
Sharifuddin has sent it.
He has asked you to meet him.
He knows the one who is endangering the Emperor's life.
-What? -Yes.
That is why I came searching for you.
I will have to go to meet Sharifuddin, right away.
No, Jodha. It's night time.
God knows, it may be a new trick by Sharifuddin.
He may be trying to trap you.
Even if it is a trap, I will have to go.
If there is a little truth, in what Sharifuddin says...
...then it is my duty to save the Emperor's life.
I will have to go right away.
Maham Anga, what is wrong with Jalal?
I can't understand a thing.
He released King Bharmal.
With due respect.
Lady Ruqaiya, You forgot to say with due respect.
Jalal not only released King Bharmal with due respect.
But, he also allowed the Raja to return to Amer.
No matter who the culprit is...
...he should be punished.
This is Jalal's rule.
But, with King Bharmal? I don't know what's wrong with Jalal.
Adham Khan is his foster brother.
But, Jalal punished him for his mistake.
Sharifuddin is his brother-in-law.
He is still in prison, serving his punishment.
Bakshi Bano.
Jalal's sister.
Jalal is so angry with his sister...
...that he didn't allow her to attend Mirza Hakim's wedding.
But, it is different with lady Jodha.
Jalal not only released her father with due respect.
In fact, he let him return to Amer.
This proves only one thing.
That lady Jodha is getting closer to Jalal.
She is becoming special to him.
That is why I keep telling you to do something.
-What? -Benazir!
The answer to your question.
-Benazir? -Yes.
You may remember how Jalal ignored lady Jodha...
...and asked Benazir to sit next to him.
I am sorry.
But, some maids want to meet you.
They have a festival tomorrow.
They want permission for that.
Resham, we'll do this later.
They are lady Jodha maids.
And many of your old maids are included with them.
-Bring them inside. -Lady Ruqaiya.
Maham Anga!
They are lady Jodha's maids.
Let them come.
You were right.
I will think about this and then take your advice.
-Goodbye! -Goodbye!
Greetings!
Please come.
-Tell me. -Greetings!
Maham Anga, it is Shivratri tomorrow.
We want a holiday to pray.
You won't get it.
There is no place for your festivals here.
There is no value for the pleas and wish of the maids.
Go away from here.
I am sorry. But, lady Jodha has hosted this prayer service.
She has invited us.
Lady Jodha!
Really?
Then, do one thing.
Go to Amer for this festival.
There is no place for your festival in our Empire.
Don't speak another word.
-But... -Didn't you hear what ma'am said?
If she says no, it means no.
Go away from here. Go. Go on.
They want a day off!
Now, your pride will fall.
You will be seen saluting a Hindu queen.
"'Lady Jodha, the good days are over."
"Now, count the bad days."
"It is said, that venom is the antidote to venom."
"And beauty overpowers beauty."
"Now, you are faced with a formidable enemy."
"Benazir!"
Sharifuddin, stop doing all this.
Give your messages to someone else.
I won't be able to help you.
If the Emperor comes to know that I...
She is a maid.
She is a maid who has come to kill the Emperor.
If you catch her now, you won't be able to prove anything.
Nor will you find out what's going on in her mind.
That is why, you will have to catch her in the act.
Who are you talking about?
Who is the maid?
Whom do I have to catch in the act?
Benazir!
The one who is the Emperor's favourite maid.
She is the weapon for the Emperor's death.
She is from Abul Mali's harem.
She is a special gift for the Emperor.
She isn't a special gift, but a special weapon.
God knows, how many he has had killed by her.
I don't know, what is going on in his mind.
And who is involved in this game?
You will have to understand the matter...
...and catch her in the act.
I will have to leave.
Lady Jodha, you are scared already.
I haven't told you about my feelings for you, yet.
I have asked you to gather here for a special reason.
Chanderi is surrounded by the Afghan Pathans.
Once again, some stupid person...
...thought of revolting against the Mughal Empire.
Once again the Mughal Empire will retaliate to this revolution.
As I can't endure revolt.
I hope that our Mughal soldiers...
...will overthrow this revolution.
I have made another decision. This time...
...my brother, Mirza Hakim will lead the army.
-Hail to the Mughal empire. -Hail.
-Long live the emperor. -Hail.
"Mirza Hakim?"
"I think, Jalal has gone mad."
"He is sending a kid on such a big war."
I can see that many of you think...
...that my brother is very young.
I want to tell you that your emperor Jalaluddin Mohammed...
...was 13 when he was crowned king...
...and given the responsibility of the Mughal Empire.
I challenge you.
My brother will be successful just as I have been, until today.
As he and I belong to the same family.
Maan Singh.
It is time for you to utilise the education you were given.
This will be the first war of your life...
...that too for the Mughal Empire.
I hope, you won't disappoint me.
I am grateful to you for your trust in me.
I will not let your trust down.
Emperor, if you allow it, I would like to take my aunt's blessings.
Surely.
May you win.
Maan Singh, don't forget who your father is.
Add to the glory of his bravery.
Bhagwant Das saved the Emperor's life by endangering his life.
Protect Mirza Hakim in the same manner.
Aunt, don't worry. I promise.
I won't let the Rajput clan to be put to shame.
I will pray to the Goddess.
She will protect you.
Emperor. Mirza resembles you so much!
Adgah, he is my brother and part of me.
Like me, he will become famous in history.
-Hail to... -...the Mughal empire.
-Long live... -...King Jalaluddin Mohammed.
He ignored me, and sent a child to the war.
It's injustice.
Moti, I thought of telling the Emperor about Benazir.
But, I don't find the time.
The war is close at hand...
...and the emperor is very angry.
Jodha, stay calm.
It's not the right occasion.
Greetings, mother.
Did you call me?
Yes, Jalal.
Normally, I don't interfere in politics.
Usually, Adgah Khan and Maham Anga advice you.
Even then, I don't understand...
...your decision of sending Mirza to war.
Is giving him such a huge responsibility...
...a mistake on your part?
Why do you feel that, mother? Tell me.
Mirza is still shocked about Shivani's elopement.
He needs time to get over it.
You do what your mind tells you.
But, Mirza is more considerate about his feelings.
He is not like you.
Mother, if you are worried about Mirza...
...then even I am worried about him.
You are right in saying, that he is not like me.
But, maybe you forget that...
...he is also a Mughal.
For a Mughal, the sword and war are the foremost things.
Not even love.
I feel responsible for the condition he is in...
...as I agreed to this alliance.
It is my responsibility to get him out of his sorrow.
I am sending him to war...
...so that he can forget his pain and sorrow.
I believe, he will come out with flying colours.
Meanwhile, allow me to go.
I have many political issues to solve.
Please allow me to leave.
I don't want anyone to revolt against the Mughal Empire, ever.
Come here, Mirza.
I will help you dress for this war.
I order you to gut the enemy.
Don't let the traitors stop you.
By God's will, emperor, your wish and order will be fulfilled.
When you return, I want...
...you to be successful.
The head of the revolutionaries should be at your feet.
Surely, Your Majesty.
Emperor, as the general of your army, I have no right...
...but, as your younger brother I want to ask you...
...what is wrong with you?
What is it that makes you so restless?
I don't quite understand.
I am going to war...
...so that I can forget my unsuccessful love affair.
But, why are you fighting this war?
Whose love do you want to forget?
Who told you this?
It's evident from the look on your face.
I haven't met you for years.
But I do know that whenever you call out for war...
...your face doesn't have anger, but pride.
Your eyes are not restless.
But, they are hungry for success.
But, you called out in anger, today.
Something has changed.
Something that was not in you, earlier.
Mirza, go to war.
The war will be won.
No matter how successful it is...
...it won't lessen your restlessness and uneasiness.
It will decrease, when you get the one whom you love.
Brother, tell me. Whom do you love?
Mirza, I don't love anyone.
Love and restlessness are for a person who has feelings.
While I have no feelings.
-Do you get it? -Yes.
Go to war and don't return until you succeed.
You don't have feelings.
Are you telling me or yourself?
Jalal didn't even look at me.
Adham Khan...
...who won Malwa.
Doesn't he trust that Adham Khan...
...can subdue the Pathans from Chanderi?
I thought by winning this war...
...I will make the Mughal Empire proud.
No! Jalal didn't even give me the opportunity.
He sent Mirza Hakim...
...who is wounded in love.
He sent him. How will he fight anyone?
How will he kill anyone?
Adham, you are mistaken.
When the lion gets wounded, he is most dangerous.
Mirza Hakim is a wounded lion.
He will be the enemies' death angel.
Jalal has a speciality. You must learn it too.
When Jalal helps someone...
...he supports that person until the end.
Jalal is sending Mirza Hakim to war...
...so that he can forget about his unsuccessful love affair.
He has the able Maan Singh and the experienced Munib Khan.
Mirza Hakim will win.
By doing this, he will feel confident.
The trauma of an unsuccessful love affair...
...will be buried by the success of victory.
When it comes to you, it's not that Jalal isn't concerned for you.
By fighting Imtiaz Khan, you saved the Mughal Empire.
Jalal won't ignore this.
It's a different matter, that I can't tell you...
...what he thinks about you.
You will know that, when the time is right.
"Whose love do you want to forget?"
"Brother, tell me."
"Whom do you love?"
Greetings, Emperor.
Should I inform lady Jodha that you have come here?
No!
In fact, send a message to lady Ruqaiya I will be with her tonight.
"Since I don't have feelings...
...then, why am I angry, hurt and jealous?"
Greetings, Emperor.
Did you call me?
Adgah, the way I ignored Adham Khan...
...and chose Mirza Hakim to stop the revolution at Chanderi...
...maybe, many took it the wrong way.
But, I would like to say, that I chose my brother...
...as I wanted to ease his feelings with the clamour of war.
You are right, sire.
It was very important for Mirza.
But, I don't think you made any mistake.
Mirza is an able soldier.
When he practices weaponry, it is worth watching.
I believe even at the war front, he will overcome his enemy.
Thank you, Adgah...
...for the trust that you showed to me and Mirza Hakim.
Can I leave?
Not yet. I have still 2 more jobs for you.
Your wish is my command, your majesty.
First of all, Baz Bahadur is ready to fight, again.
I want to send Adham Khan to stop his revolution.
If I wanted, I could have sent Adham Khan...
...to stop the revolution at Chanderi. But...
...I wanted to save him for Baz Bahadur.
Of course, Your Majesty.
Adham Khan has experience of Malwa.
Surely, he will be successful.
What is the second task?
The second thing, I hope you remember...
...the task that I handed over to you.
Yes, sire.
It's time to do it.
I don't know how to tell the emperor about Benazir.
He has been so busy with his work, since morning.
He is also very angry on me.
I don't know...
...whether the news regarding Benazir is true or not.
I don't know. What should I do, Moti?
Mother!
Khane-khana. What brings you here?
Yes. I was tired of studying.
OK.
Don't you like to study?
That's not true.
But, I like mother's poems much more.
And I like solving puzzles too.
Should I ask you a riddle?
Yes. Ask me.
Listen. God, what you do is right.
I salute you.
Tell me, the answer that is hidden in this.
I will tell you right away.
When you asked me the riddle earlier.
The first letter of each word was joined to form mother Jodha.
Now, you asked me the puzzle.
Lord!
What you do is right.
I salute you.
Here. P from lord. "O Lord!"
A from what you do is right. "What you do is right."
A from I salute you."I salute you."
Paa!
Rahim, what kind of a word is this?
I fooled you.
It is not necessary that I get the first letters to join again.
It is the opposite, this time.
"Ra" from Lord.
"Hi" from what you do is right.
"M" from I salute you.
Rahim. Rahim. My name.
Wow!
You lost. Mother lost.
Moti, do you see how nice childhood is?
No worries and no problems.
You just play around.
He brings different puzzles for me.
The last time when brother-in-law was here...
...he was talking about Benazir's letter.
At that time too Rahim...
Even I thought Benazir is a Muslim.
Then why is she sending...
...a message to her mother in the Avadhi language?
What can I tell you, mother?
I am not happy here.
Why are you angry on me?
When I am in your heart, then...
...why am I an outsider?
Moti, come here quickly.
Benazir has hidden some message in this letter.
We have to find out what it is.
Just take a look.
Let's join the last word of the first sentence.
G-G-M-G-K-R.
No. It doesn't make any sense.
Let's join the first word.
The task is not done yet.
Moti, Sharifuddin was right.
Benazir is the one who has come to kill the emperor.
Benazir has sent a message in this letter.
This message is not send to her mother...
...but, to the one who sent her here.
That means, Abul Mali.
It means, Benazir is the one...
...who has come to kill the emperor.
Benazir, I promise you.
I won't let you fulfil this task of yours.
How are you?
Benazir.
Greetings, lady Jodha.
If you have come to ask me about my health...
...then let me tell you...
...that I am not fine.
I came to ask you which task is it, that hasn't been done yet?
What are you talking about?
You can see...
...I am not well.
I am not in any state to do any work.
Why should I do it?
I have so many maids to serve me.
I am talking about the job...
...for which you have come here.
You had written a letter to your mother...
...and sent her a message.
You had written that the task hasn't been done yet.
I am a special guest of the emperor.
It is my job to please him.
I don't need to give explanations about my letter.
Alright.
If not me...
...then, explain it to the emperor itself.
Do you want to bring this matter to the emperor's notice?
Go and tell him.
You will be made fun of.
The emperor has seen this letter.
He questioned me about it.
The message has been sent with his orders.
Lady Jodha.
You are a queen and I am a maid.
Why are you harassing me and belittling your status?
If you allow me, I would like to take some rest.
I am not keeping well.
I couldn't meet the emperor for a long time.
God knows, when he will call me.
I will have to go to him.
Lady Jodha, you are over thinking this.
It seems, I have to bite you before I bite Jalal.
What's happening? What's that noise?
Abul Mali thought...
...he can hide in Agra by cheating the Mughal spies.
But, he didn't consider the Emperor's ability...
...and the strength of the Mughal army.
Moti, look. It is Abul Mali.
He is the same man whom Sharifuddin told me about.
I have heard he is the emperor's brother-in-law.
Look at the emperor's misfortune...
...that his relatives become his enemies.
Look at Abul Mali's face.
He shows no remorse or regret.
I forgave you every time as you are my brother-in-law.
Did you think that Jalaluddin is so weak...
...that he can't catch you?
Staying in my city, you will plan things...
...and I won't even know about it?
I know everything about you, since the day you entered Agra.
Where are you? What are you doing?
I was watching you all the time.
So that I can catch you in the act.
What did you think?
That one person will destroy the Mughal Empire.
When you thought of running away...
...I felt like talking to you once.
Adgah, bring him to the court.
Benazir.
We are doomed, Benazir.
The emperor's soldiers have arrested Abul Mali.
Oh, God! What is happening?
Zakira, what will happen, now?
Did you think that you will live in my city...
...and make plans against me?
While, I will sit quietly?
You were defeated in Kabul, but you ran away.
Now, you want to attack me.
You don't know one thing.
I look at you...
...and I watch what goes on around me, too.
Now, tell me who is your spy here.
Since you have caught me, then catch that spy of mine.
Emperor Jalaluddin.
I feel that you are not afraid of death.
The one who plays with death, doesn't fear death.
I have come here with no fear of death.
Very good. It's good that you have overcome your fear of death.
It won't take long to bury you.
Soldiers, throw him in the prison.
If anyone tries meets him, then behead him.
And about your spy, Abul Mali...
...I will find him too.
Many times, my people have warned me against you.
Now, maybe they will be at ease...
...that I and the Mughal Empire are protected.
You are mistaken, Emperor.
You have caught Abul Mali, not his weapon.
You are not safe.
If you aren't alert, then...
...you will die before me.
I know that I am your brother-in-law.
So, you can't kill me.
Only time will tell.
I will surely make you realise what hell is, before you die.
Take him away.
"The emperor is very angry now."
"He hasn't overcome the shock of Shivani's affair."
"How do I tell him that Benazir is Abul Mali's weapon?"
Jalal, listen to me.
Ruqaiya, not now. We will talk later.
I don't want to hear or talk to you now.
-I will talk to you later. -But, Jalal...
"The emperor didn't hear what lady Ruqaiya had to say."
"Then, he won't listen to me."
"But, I will have to try."
"I can endure the emperor's anger."
"But I can't let his life be endangered."
Emperor, I want to talk to you.
I believe, when I was talking to Ruqaiya, you were here.
I believe that your ears are good enough...
...to hear what I told her.
Yes. But, it is something that...
Lady Jodha, I repeat.
I don't want to talk to anyone.
I am sorry, Emperor.
But, I want to tell you something about Benazir.
That Benazir is from Abul Mali's harem.
She is his maid. She can be dangerous to me.
For your information, let me tell you...
...that Benazir had come with 19 other maids.
Along with Benazir, I am watching those 19 maids too.
-Emperor! -Lady Jodha.
I know Benazir better than you.
As I have spent more time with her than you.
Question Abul Mali at once.
When the need arises, be tough.
Jodha!
Abul Mali is arrested.
Then, why are you worried?
I'm worried about Benazir, Moti.
I wonder what happens to His Highness...
...at the mention of Benazir?
I'm sure, she knows some tricks of alluring men.
So, His Highness is not ready to listen to anything about her.
I'm His Highness' wife.
It's my duty to protect him.
But, I don't understand what to do in this matter.
First of all, stop worrying.
And who's this Benazir?
A dancer! A maid!
And she was doing this on Abul Mali's say so.
Now, when Abul Mali is in dungeon, then why do you worry?
Now, she won't be able to harm His Highness.
And you never know.
Seeing Abul Mali's condition, she might escape.
So, you stop worrying.
And now listen.
The maids have made all the arrangements...
...for the worship on Mahashivratri.
This day is the day of Lord Shankar and Gauri's wedding.
By doing the worship and fasting on this day...
...the bond between husband and wife remains unbreakable.
It'll be an all night vigil.
I think, you should take His Highness' permission.
Permission?
It's getting difficult to talk to him.
How am I going to take the permission?
You may or may not have told him, but His Highness...
...has some hint that we're going out.
Why do you think so?
Emperor!
I'm going to worship on Shivratri today.
This fast is done because...
It doesn't make a difference to me, lady Jodha.
Whatever be the reason...
...after all that happened with my brother...
...you can do as you like.
Several times, I've asked you to forgive me...
...on behalf of my father, emperor.
An apology will not cover up the crime, lady Jodha.
I've told you, do as you like.
The fast is done for...
...the husband's safety and long life.
Before marriage, my mother made me promise...
...that I'll keep this fast every year for you.
First of all, lady Jodha...
...stop worrying about me.
Nothing will happen to me.
Secondly, I don't believe in worships for my safety.
And third and last but not the least...
...when you don't consider me your husband...
...why all this pretence?
I accept I have not accepted you as my husband wholeheartedly.
But, it is also true...
...that I'll pray for your safety, wholeheartedly.
Not because mother made me promise.
But because, you may feel you're capable...
...of protecting yourself, who knows when you need help and...
...in such a situation Lord Shiva will protect you.
Ruqaiya, you know, I don't like to talk to anyone...
...when I'm busy with state affairs.
So, don't get angry with me.
Wrong!
You weren't thinking about state affairs.
Your childhood friend can read your mind very well, Jalal.
Now, get over your anger.
I've come to you after a long time.
That's what...
That's why I wonder, how come you thought of me today?
Go...
...lady Jodha will be waiting for you.
Hey...
...is it that once again lady Jodha...
...has separated herself from you?
So, you came to me to cry.
Don't be so angry with me, Ruqaiya.
I'm angry.
And I've that right.
So much has happened, Jalal...
...and you exonerated the one...
...who has humiliated the Mughal empire's prestige.
I agree, that lady Jodha is innocent.
But, you also exonerated her father?
Ruqaiya, I didn't exonerate him.
It was Mirza Hakim's request.
He was the one who was hurt and it was his wish to liberate him.
Great! Amazing!
Mirza told you and you accepted it.
Was the king guilty for Mirza...
...and not for the Mughal empire...
...that was disrespected?
Not as His Highness, who was humiliated?
Actually, you've become a puppet of lady Jodha.
You do exactly what she says.
I think, your strong chest has finally grown a heart.
Back to square one!
I'm tired of listening to all this.
Let me repeat that I don't have a heart, Ruqaiya.
What happened, Jalal?
Why are you getting angry?
Has anyone else asked the same question to you?
And are you telling me this...
...or making vain efforts to convince yourself?
For God's sake...
...for God's sake, keep quiet, Ruqaiya.
No! It's your wish, that you want to stay here.
But, I can't keep quiet.
Your wife can keep quiet, but not your childhood friend.
Jalal, what is happening?
That woman is weakening you.
She's playing with you.
Why do you always forgive her?
Why don't you throw her out of your life and this empire?
What's so special about lady Jodha that to win the same...
...you're getting defeated, constantly?
Jalal!
Forgive me.
Although I'm your childhood friend, I talked to you rudely.
Come, Jalal.
Please sit.
Come!
