Jalal says to the farmers that the Queen has called you, the Queen who has worked a lot to serve you, she wants to talk to you, she wants to give happiness to you people, he ask Jodha to come forward, Jodha says to the farmers that we have extended our business with England, they buy spice from you and sell it for more price, they take credit for your work, so to give you credit, we have decided to buy spice from you people and then we will sell it to the English men with the Mughal name, you will get double profit and also will be credited, I want your assistance in it.
The Farmers says you are working for us, we are with you, Jodha says to the women that I need the Harem women to help me out too, she says we have to see to the quality of the spice and for this work, I have only one name in my mind and that is Salima. Ruqaiya is shocked and angry.
Jodha looks at Ruqaiya and says if Ruqaiya was with us, then it would be good, but she already have Harem work, so I don’t want to burden her, Ruqaiya thinks that Jodha can’t do this export business, Jalal will understand it with time!
Jodha is ordering Servants about the spice business, Jalal comes there with flowers, Jodha ask what are you hiding? Jalal says nothing, he says you have to guess whats in my hands, if you guess it right, then it will be yours, else I have other wives, she says what could it be? Anklet, Necklace or what? Jalal says you have only one chance, if you don’t guess it, then I will give it to someone else.
Jodha goes near the dressing table, she removes her scarf and says Jalal, will you apply flowers in my hairs? Jalal ask how you know? Jodha says with its fragrance, Jalal says I like this about you, he puts pink flower in her hairs, Jodha says what I like, you always remembers it.

Murad is drinking wine, the English Ambassadors comes there and present him gifts, the Translator says to Murad that these men wants to trade with India, Murad says so what? The Translator says that if you were the Crown Prince, then things would be great, as you have great thinking and you’re a Warrior, you have spark, it’s sad that you don’t have any position, he leaves with the English men, Murad fumes in anger.

Jodha says can anyone challenge an old man? Jalal ask Moti to bring dry dress for Jodha, she leaves.
Jalal comes in the rain and hugs Jodha from the back, he says see, I came to you, she smiles shyly, he says we should go inside now, Jodha stops him and says why? Are you afraid of getting drenched with me in the rain? Jalal smiles and enjoys the rain with her.
Todar checks the storage of spice and closes the windows so that the cartons doesn’t get wet, he leaves.
Ruqaiya’s Servant comes there and opens the windows of the godown where the spices are stored, it’s raining outside, all the cartons get wet.
Jalal and Jodha are enjoying the rain, they have slow dance, meri dhadkan dhadkan tumho…Tumho zindagani plays… Jodha smiles and hugs Jalal, they are getting wet together and enjoying the rain.
Ruqaiya’s Servant is leaving the godown, Moti comes there and ask what are you doing here? She says Todar asked me to check the godown, Moti says okay leave, she leaves.

Jodha says it’s not his fault, it was a strong storm, windows would have gotten opened by it, I trust Todar.
Salima says what will we do now? if order doesn’t reach the countries by tomorrow, then it will be our insult.
Ruqaiya says what can happen now? she ask Jalal to inform the Countries that they can’t send the orders. Jalal agrees, Jodha says no, you will not do anything like that, I will find some way, I will not let the Mughal Saltanate be insulted, trust me. Jalal says I have given you the responsibility of trade, so I leave decision of all this to you too, I have complete faith in you, Ruqaiya is stunned.
Jodha comes to the farmers and sellers, she says that I want you people to give your extra spices to us, we have always been with you and now we want your help, the Mughal Saltanate needs you, we want your assistance.
The English men gets to know about the spices getting wet, they say that Indians are fools, it’s time for celebration! One man says we have to look for a bigger picture, we have to divide and rule, we have to handle Murad, we have to make Murad King, then we can do whatever we want!
