Jodha comes running behind him. She says I don’t want to ask why you freed Bharmal and sent him back to Amer, I just want ask why you didn’t taunt me, please scold me, shout at me at least, my sister broke your brother’s heart by eloping then why are you not saying anything, your silence is killing, and this silence is unbearable.
Jalal says correct, Mirza was silent at the time of the Nikah, he was silent when he got the news, this silence killed him too. He holds Jodha’s hand and says I don’t need your permission to punish you, but Ii want to punish the real culprit that is Shivani and Tejavant, my power is much bigger and they can’t run from me for ever, I will find them!!
Jalal angrily says to Jodha that he lied to me, he has hurt my brother and I will punish him! My soldiers are searching for him and I will punish him for what he did! Jodha tries to say something, but Jalal says no! Jodha looks at him. He remembers Mirza’s words that you can’t hurt your loved one, he doesn’t say anything and leaves. Jodha looks on.
A soldier informs Shariffuden in jail that the agent of Abul Mali is Benazir and she’s here, Shariffuden is happy and writes a letter to Jodha again. He says thanks to Abul Mali.
Outside, Zakira is tensed that how to tell Benazir that all snakes are finished, she comes to Benazir who is starving for poison, Zakira ask her to not throw her poison away, as there is no snake left, Benazir is stunned and is choking, she says Abul Mali will kill me and this Jodha isn’t allowing me to go close to Jalal.
Jodha from outside listens to the sound and she’s about to see Benazir but Moti comes and tells her that Shariffuden wants to meet her. Jodha says I will have to go if Jalal is in danger.
Ruqaiya says to Maham Anga that what happened to Jalal, he freed Bharmal? Maham says that too with respect and sent him to Amer, it has always been Jalal’s rule to punish a Culprit irrespective of who is he like he sent Adham to jail, Shariffuden is in jail, Bakshi is getting her punishment, but Jodha’s case is different, Jodha is stealing Jalal, you should do something. Ruqaiya says what?
Maham says use Benazir against Jodha, Resham informs that Jodha’s Chambermaid wants permission for some festival. They come and says we want off tomorrow, Maham says no, you will not get it. They say that the prayer has been arranged by Jodha and they are invited by Queen Jodha.
Maham says you are only maids and will not get any off and ask them to go! Maham remembers how a hindu maid taunted her, she says Queen Jodha, your power will be destroyed now!
Jodha comes to Shariffuden and says stop this, if you want, then tell this to someone else. Shariffuden says she is a Chambermaid, you have to catch her red handed, Jodha says which Chambermaid? Shariffuden says Benazir, she has become special to Jalal, but she has been sent from Abul Mali’s Palace as a gift, but she has a mission with her, Abul Mali had used her to kill many and now Jalal, Jodha says I have to go, she leaves. Shariffuden says you left without listening to what’s inside my heart.
Jodha ask Moti let’s go, Jodha says I am worried about what Shariffuden had told me, Moti says it’s not right if Jalal knows that you met Shariffuden, he will be angry, and we can’t believe Shariffuden. Jodha says we have to, earlier, he told me about Abul Mali and then Mirza and Jalal confirmed that same Abul Mali is against them and Benazir has come from his Palace and Jalal believes her, when she is around Jalal, there is no soldier and I have noticed that she always tries to find ways to go close to Jalal.
A Servant comes and informs that Jalal has called everyone and it seems there will be some war.
All family and soldiers gather, Jalal says one man has surrounded one state, and again one man tries to betray the Mughals and goes against them, we have to answer him rightly and this battle will be supervised by Mirza Hakim, Adham Khan thinks this kid?
Jalal says I know you may think that Mirza is young, but remember when I became the King, I was only 17 years old and I know my brother will fight with courage. He says to Maan Singh that it’s time to impliment what I have taught you, you will have to fight for the Mughals now.
Maan Singh says I will not disappoint you and ask for permission to touch Jodha’s feet, Jalal allows. He touches Jodha’s feet, Jodha says to Maan that never disappoint Jalal and to follow his father’s (Bhagwan Das) footstep who fought for Jalal, Maan agrees.
Atgah says to Jalal that Mirza looks like your shadow, Jalal says he is my brother and I am sure he will win. Jodha says to Moti that I am not getting a chance to tell Jalal about Benazir, Moti says to tell later.
Adham Khan fumes at being ignored and leaves.
Hamida bano says I don’t interfere in politics, but I think you have given a very big responsibility to Mirza and will he be able to do that? Jalal ask why? Hamida says he hasn’t come out of Shivani’s fiasco, you think with mind, but Mirza listens more to his heart. Jalal says I know he thinks differently, but he is a Mughal and can win. He is my brother and I think for him which is why I am sending him to war so that he can come out of depression, as I feel I am responsible for what happened, as I approved that proposal. He says he has work and leaves.
Jalal comes to Mirza and says I will make you ready for war, he makes him wear the outfit and says to tear apart the villains. Mirza says sure. Jalal says come after winning, Mirza says I will, but what’s the matter with you? I am going on fight to forget my love for Shivani, but why are you so worried and tensed for this war? Whom do you love and want to forget?
Jalal ask waht? Mirza says I’ve always seen attitude in your eyes but today, you had anger. Jalal says to Mirza to go to war, Mirza says I will win the war, but that will not lessen your your heart’s pain and inner disturbance, this will be done, when you win the one whom you love, tell me whom do you love? Jalal is highly tensed…
Jalal says to stop this rubbish, I don’t have a heart and doesn’t love anyone. He ask Mirza to go for war, Mirza thinks did you tell me or yourself that you don’t have a heart?
Adham Khan is lamenting before Maham that he was not chosen to go to war, whereas the young Hakim who is injured from the inside, was chosen to fight and Jalal was ignoring him. Maham says Mirza has fire inside of him and he will lashes it out on war, so don’t take him lightly, Maham pacifies him saying that Hakim and Jalal are trying to forget their failed love stories, and Jalal will not ignore how he won against Imtiaz, so just wait.
Jalal thinks of Mirza’s words and comes to where jodha is praying. The Chambermaid ask should I tell Jodha that you are present here? Jalal says no, but tell Ruqaiya that I will spend the night with her.
Jalal comes to Atgah and says I ignored and chose Mirza because Mirza was depressed, atga says Mirza is a trained soldier and can win any war, he knows about victory. Jalal says Bahadur is again creating problems in Malwa, so I think we should send Adham there. Atga says sure, and he knows about Malwa too, Jalal says I have told you another work, Atgah says I remember, Jalal says do it, Atgah agrees.
Jodha says to Moti that I don’t know how to tell Jalal about Benazir and whether it was correct, I don’t know.
Rahim comes to Jodha, Jodha says you don’t like learning, he says I like asking puzzle questions. He ask a puzzle, Jodha writes it and reads the first letters on all words, but it doesn’t get solved, Rahim says you had to add the last letters of words and it becomes “Rahim”.
Jodha remembers how he had earlier ask the puzzle from Mirza, she suddenly rememberd the letter that was written by Benazir and how Mirza told that it was in avdi language. She writes it down the letter and combines the 1st letters and it becomes “WORK HAS NOT BEEN DONE”. Jodha says it means Shariffuden was right, she came here to kill Jalal and wrote this letter to Abul Mali. I will not let her do anything.
Jodha comes to Benazir who is striving hard for poison, Jodha ask what WORK HAS NOT BEEN DONE YET? Benazir says I am not fine, I can’t do any work, there are many Maids. Jodha says I am asking about the letter you wrote to your Mom, Benazir says my work is to please Jalal, Jodha says I will tell about it to Jalal. Benazir says you can, but Jalal already knows about it and will not listen to you. Jodha goes away. Benazir says she is nagging too much, I have to bite her before Jalal!
Outside at gate of the Palace, Abul Mali is being captured by the Mughal forces, he is angry. Jodha also sees it and says to Moti that he is not ashamed. Jalal comes to Mali and says I was letting you go everytime because you were my brother-in-law but what you thought, that I am weak? Jalal says I knew about your every move in Agra. He ask Atgah to present him in Court. Benazir gets to know about Abul Mali’s arrest and gets tensed.
In Court, Abul Mali is being presented while all the Mughals are present. Jalal says what you thought that you can run away by backstabbing me, but see now, you are in my custody. Jalal ask who is your agent here, Abul Mali says you captured me now, so capture him too. Jalal says you are calling your death!
Abul Mali says I came here with a death cloth tied on my head, I don’t have any fear, Jalal say good, now it will be easy to kill you. Jalal says some people think I have danger from you but now, they will be satisfied and he looks at Jodha. Jalal says I will find your agent, Abul Mali says you are mistaken, you have captured me but not my weapon, you are not save and if you don’t take any safety, then you will leave the world, Jalal says I will answer you soon! Jalal says to send Abul Mali to jail and nobody can meet him, Abul Mali is taken away.
Jodha thinks Jalal is very angry, should I talk or not? Ruqaiya stops Jalal to talk, but Jalal stops her and says I don’t want to listen to anything. Jodha thinks he didn’t listen to Ruqaiya, then how will he listen to me? Jodha stops him, Jalal says didn’t you see I stopped Ruqaiya from any talk?? Jodha says I want to tell you about Benazir. Jalal says I know she is from Abul Mali’s Palace, I have an eye on every Maids of his Palace and I spend much time with her, so I know her, Jodha is a little jealous.
Moti says to Jodha that Abul Mali is been arrested, then what’s with the tension now? Jodha says Benazir, I don’t know what happens to Jalal, she is dangerous and as his Wife, it’s my duty to protect him. Moti says that she takes command from Abul Mali but now, he’s under arrest, so she might run away too. She says that Maids has prepared for shubratri prayer and you should do fast (vrat), as it strengthens hubby-wifey relations, Jodha is happy and comes out. Moti says to tell Jalal about your fast, but Jodha says he doesn’t listen to me.
Jalal comes there, Jodha stops him and says there is a prayer today and I am doing fast, Jalal says after all what has happened to my brother there, then there’s no need for all this, Jodha says I have said sorry so many times. Jodha says I promised Masa that I will do vrat (fast) for you.
Jalal says first, I don’t need vrat (fast) for my safety, secondly, I don’t believe in vrat (fast) and all for safety, and thirdly, when you don’t accept me as your husband, then why this vrat (fast) for me? Jodha is speechless. jalal leaves. Jodha says I know I didn’t accept you as my husband, but I am not doing this fast as per Masa/Queen mother’s order, but I am doing this for your safety.
Jalal comes to Ruqaiya and says you know that when I am solving political matters, I don’t listen to anyone. I am here after many days, Ruqaiya says why are you here? Go to Jodha as always or did she throw you out like before so you are here now?? Jalal ask her not to be angry, Riqaiya says I am. This much happened and you freed them easily, I know Jodha was innocent, but what about Bharmal and his company?
Jalal says it was Mirza’s request, Ruqaiya says what about the Mughal’s respect that was damaged? The ting is you did all this for Jodha, is there a heart beating in you? Jalal says again same thing that I don’t have a heart, how to tell you? Ruqaiya says I don’t know what’s in her, she is trapping you, why don’t you let her go if she’s not important, what you are trying to achieve, but fails everytime?
Jalal looks at her and he’s about to go, but Ruqaiya stops him and says sorry for talking rudely, she orders the Maid that tonight, Jalal is with me and nobody should disturb him. She says to Jalal that I will try take your tension away, come, I will massage your head.
