Jalal is getting ready in his room, Jodha comes and gives him sweet offering, Jalal ask did your prayer finish, so is there fast today? Jodha says today, I have to do one more prayer, Shastra prayer as you are going for a war, she does Jalal’s aarti and sings bhajan, she praises Jalal in aarti bhajan, she puts red colour on his sword and gives it to him, Jalal takes it and looks at Jodha.
Jalal says to Jodha that what you asked today in prayers? Jodha says I pray that you win war and also Nigar’s heart, I hope you come after winning the war, Jalal says I am sorry, I have to take you to battlefield, Jodha says I am your wife, I will be happy to come with you, Jalal says I don’t know whether I will be able to fight against my sister, but you were with me in this situation, thanks. Jodha says I will be with you always, Jalal says today, I am alone, you are with me, but I am running the Saltanate alone, I would want my heir to run this government with me, Jodha blushes.
All the women are packing their stuffs, one wife ask till when this war will go on? Ruqaiya says I don’t know, this is war, pray to God that this war ends fast and don’t think about your clothes and jewelry, we are not going for celebrations, so just take what is needful there, just take things of 10seer (seer is unit of weight in those times).
Maham comes there and says I have one suggestion that the Harem should not go to war like this, Ruqaiya says Jalal ordered that he doesn’t want someone to attack the Palace in his absence, also you seem happy with this war? Maham says no one likes war and if you ask women of the Harem, they will say that they don’t want to go on war, will they be able to bear war? Ruqaiya says you all have 2 options that; to either stay here in your comfortable beds or come with jalal as his support!
Chand begum is pleading to let her go to her daughter, the soldier says that this women is of no use now, he kills her, it turns out to be bad dream of Nigar, she gets up and says I am unlucky that I couldn’t free you from Jalal’s clutches. Mah Chuchak comes to her and asks what happened, you got afraid of me? Nigar says no, I got afraid because of a bad dream, they were beating my Mother. Mah Chuchak says don’t rely on dream which you see with closed eyes, fulfill dreams which you have seen from open eyes, you are distracting from the war, first take revenge from them, bring Jalal to the feet of your Mother, then he will beg in front of your Mother!
Jodha is packing her stuff, Jodha feels dizzy and sit on bed, Moti ask a Servant to bring the Doctor, Jodha feels like vomiting, the Doctor comes there and checks Jodha, the Doctor smiles and informs Jodha that congrats, you are going to be a Mother, Jodha and Moti are surprised, Jodha gets up happily and touches her belly. The Doctor says I will inform Hamida and will get my gift, Jodha stops her and says you will not tell her this.
Moti ask why? Jodha says after so much difficulty, Jalal agreed to go on war against his Sister, if he gets to know that I am pregnant, then he can stop the war, I don’t want Jalal to flow in emotions, I will tell him after the war, Moti says so many days? Jodha says you remember when Sharifudden attacked Amer, Sister-in-law didn’t tell about her pregnancy, we are rajvanshi, I have to become Jalal’s strength not weakness, for the future of the nation, I have to hide this news from Jalal, she request the Doctor to not tell this to anyone, the Doctor says when you can do so much, then also I will not tell this until the war is over. Jodha thanks her and gives her a ring, Jodha thinks that I hope I took the right decision.
A Servant comes to Jodha and says Bakshi wants to go with Jalal on war, Jodha says but it’s her last days of pregnancy? The servant says she is not listening to anyone, Jodha says Moti you go and ask Jalal to stop Bakshi, Moti says you take care.
Jodha comes to Bakshi and ask where are you going? Bakshi says it’s an order that the whole Harem will go and I am part of it, Jodha says this is not good for your child, Bakshi says I have thought of it and I am going, Jalal says no, I don’t know much, but I know that in this last stage, women can’t go on journeys, I can’t take risk with your child, Bakshi says I think it will be good if I come with you.
Jalal says I am taking the Harem for security and I understand that it’s not safe for you to come, I have heard that the starting 3 months of pregnancy and last months are crucial, Jodha gets lost in thinking, Jalal ask her what happened? Are you thinking that you will stay here with Bakshi? Jodha sys no, I will accompany you, Jalal says then make Bakshi understand that she can’t come and also Sharifudden will stay with you, I don’t know when I will be a father, but I will become an Uncle soon, Jodha thinks I wish I could tell Jalal that he is becoming a father, but now the King is more needed than a father.
Moti says I don’t think that you should go on journey in this state, Jodha says be quiet, Jalal wants me there and I will go, she prays to kahna that sorry, I didn’t tell anyone this good news, but I want Jalal to focus on this war and save his nation.
All the Harem women comes towards the gate of the Palace, all the royal wives and women sit in their respective palanquin, Atgah, Munim comes there, then Jalal along with Todar and Mirza comes there.
Adham comes to Maham and says you promised that you will not le me go to war, Maham says but Jalal is taking the whole harem, so what could I have done? Adham says nothing works for you! He leaves.
Jalal is passing by Jodha’s palanquin, he looks at her, Jodha nods at him to be careful, Jalal greets Kahna idol and leaves from there. Their caravan starts their journey towards war, Jodha says that the protection of the Mughal Sultanates is in your hands Kahna, please save it.
Voiceover says that the king won over a brother and Jalal started his journey to do war with Nigar.
Soul talk– Jalal says if I had known that you were pregnant, then I wouldn’t have gone to war. Jodha’s soul says that’s why I didn’t tell you this news, I wanted you to save your nation. Jalal’s soul says that this is the unique thing in you that you hide things for the betterment of others, but our relationship was like this, that we get to know thing about each other without saying it.
Nigar and Abul Mali gets to know that Jalal is coming for war and the Harem is with him, Nigar says that in war, you need soldiers to fight, will he fight along with his Women? I have gone through a lot, me and my mother has suffered a lot, but Jalal is wrong in thinking that I am a lady and I am weak, no I will fight with him, I am a Mughal too, I have practiced a lot for this day which is why Mah Chuchak’s has given me her whole force!
Nigar says to Abul Mali that let Mughal women come here, I will show them, I will capture them and will put them in prison like Jalal has done with my Mother! Then a Queen will be the owner of the Mughal Saltanates, Abul Mali angrily looks at her.
At night, all are in tents, Jalal looks at the mud, Jodha comes to him and ask what happened, are you alright? Jalal wipes his tears and says nothing, Jodha says tell me, Jalal says this mud makes me remember many memories, the place where we are standing, my father gave me ministries here, also I have relations with that place where Mah Chuchak’s is staying, in her tent is kalanoor, and on that place I was given crown, and that time too, the situation was worse, as my father was hiding, so Khan baba gave me the throne and turban and today too, the situation in kalanoor is weird, I wish Khan baba was with me.
Jodha says you love Khan baba a lot, Jalal says yes, I love him maybe more than my own Paternal father but today, Rahim is with me and also his Wife salima who shows me the right path, Jodha says yes, Rahim puts smile on faces by his mischief and Salima is very intelligent. Jodha suddenly feels like vomiting, Jalal says maybe because of the journey you are not feeling well, go and take rest, Jodha says no I am fine, Jodha then thinks that I should leave, else Jalal will know about my pregnancy, then it will be a problem, she leaves.
Abul Mali addresses his force that tonight, you can rest and as from tomorrow, you will have to show your strength, give tough time to Jalal’s forces!
Nigar is practicing sword fighting and says tomorrow, I will see you Jalal, a soldier comes and says someone wants to meet you, Nigar goes to meet the person and it’s Maham, she comes to Maham, she ask don’t you have fear of darkness? Maham says I do my work only in darkness, Nigar ask about her mother, Chand begum?
Maham says I don’t think he has comes with Chand here, he has come here with the whole harem and he has brought whole force here too, I must tell you Jalal is afraid of you, Nigar laughs and says I heard that Jalal’s force is less? Maham says yes Jalal has very less force, to tell you the truth, he is not ready for war, Nigar says this is what I wanted, Maham smirks.
Hamida comes to Jalal and ask him to take rest for a while, Jalal ask why did you come out? Hamida says I am not getting sleep as you are not sleeping, Jalal says you know I am not worried about the war, Hamida says I know you are the greatest warrior, they see Todar asking soldiers to dig a pit, Todar ask Adham to do this work, Adham says don’t worry I will do it, Jalal ask why are you digging? Todar says if the Harem women are attacked, they can hide here.
Jodha comes there too and says it’s a good idea, Jalal says your intelligence is making me strong, Jodha says I have one more idea, in Amer, we make a secret way from which women go to, far away from battlefield and there, the women can do jauhur (burning themselves alive), Jalal ask why you take such a dangerous step? Jodha says we are Rajvanshi, we kill ourselves before any other man touches us, Jalal says you are a Rajvanshi, but a Mughal wife too, so you think this is right now? Jodha says I used to think it’s right, but I didn’t know you are this kind of person, Jalal ask which kind of person? jodha says that kind of person whom I can love, for whom I can give my life. Jalal looks at her.
Jalal thanks Todar for being with him and says I am worried for Bakshi, Hamida says don’t worry, Sharifudden is with her.
Sharifudden in the Palace touches the crown and says wow, what’s the presence and shine of this throne? Bakshi comes and says it’s of Jalal so it shines, but when jalal sits in it, then it shines the more, Sharifudden sits on the throne, Bakshi says what are you doing, you can’t sit there? Sharifudden says but I sat here, what will you do now? Will you tell Jalal? Soon, Jalal will not be sitting on this throne, as this war is very dangerous, maybe nobody comes back, Nigar has strong force and aslo Jalal took the whole harem with him, so he has to protect them too.
Bakshi says you are happy knowing all this? Sharifudden acts and says no, I don’t want that, but I want to live for my child, I want my child to sit on this throne after Jalal, as he is a real Mughal, believe me I love you a lot Bakshi and this child too, that is coming, so tell me if I think about you as Marium zamani (Queen Mother)? if I think my child as King, so did I think wrong? Bakshi cries and hugs him, Sharifudden smirks.
Jodha comes to her tent and feels dizzy, Moti says you should not walk much in this state, Ruqaiya comes to her and ask what happened to you, you are feeling dizzy? Are you fine? Moti says actually… Ruqaiya says when Wives are talking, Servants should not interfere!! Ruqaiya says this is battlefield, if any wife gets ill, then Jalal can be distracted from the war, you take care of yourself, we all are here to handle things, she leaves. Moti sasy strange to know that she was caring for you? Maybe war changes everyone’s perception.
Ruqaiya comes to Jalal who is sitting near tje bonfire. Ruqaiya says that if this fire, is that much good that you forgot to go from here and take rest? Jalal says I forgot that you came here too, Ruqaiya says war is like this, warrior ignores many things, anyways, you should rest. Jalal says I will go, Ruqaiya says I have one suggestion, I think you should spend this night in Jodha’s tent, I know you like her a lot and in her company, you will get peace and it’s important for you.
Jalal says I understand how much difficult it is for a Wife to send her husband to another wife, Ruqaiya says yes, it is difficult, but I am a Mughal woman before your Wife.
Jalal comes to Jodha and ask are you fine? Jodha says because of the hot weather I am not feeling well, Jalal says I got worried, Jodha says this time is not to get worried but to take rest, Jalal says I am not ready for war, maybe I will not return from this war, Jodha says nothing like this will happen, you are the greatest warrior, Jalal says thanks for the support but I feel I will not return from this war, Jodha puts hand on his mouth.
Jalal says I want to spend this my night with you, give me peace, make me sleep, they share an eyelock, Jalal lies in Jodha’s lap, Jodha sings him a lullaby, Jalal sleeps, Jodha smiles looking at him.
Maham comes to Adham and ask why are you worried? He ask where were you? She sasy I went to meet Nigar to place things in my hands, he says what if somebody had seen you? She says I am a clever player in this game, I went to make Nigar believe that we are on her side, Nigar is going to be powerful, Adham says what? You are against Jalal in this war?? She says yes because Nigar is more strong, you don’t do any mistake this time!
All the Palace people are sitting, Jalal comes and says I am sorry to have called all of you here, I know we are ready for war, but Nigar is my sister and she is the daughter of my father, so I want to try this last time to stop this war, war is not the solution to anything, also I don’t want to fight against my mother Mah Chuchak.
Hamida says you are so much worried Jalal. Todar says he is a King, he has the ability to fight with all situations, he is a warrior. Atgah says Jalal is a strong King, he can handle any situation, he is AKBAR, he will solve anything, you don’t need to doubt your any decision.
Jalal says I am not doubting my decision, just for the sake of my people, I can talk to my sister, I can win her heart and stop this war, Jodha says if this is possible, then it will be great because war is not the solution, the soldiers who die in war are also brothers and sons of others, so we should try this way.
Maham says sorry, but I don’t think this is a good idea, Nigar tried to kill you, she framed Todar too and she tried to harm Rahim and Jodha, Ruqaiya says I agree with Maham, we have come here for war, they are also ready for war, so leave this thing and go rest, as you have to go to war tomorrow. Salima says if this war can be stopped by talking, then it’s great, as war should be the last option. Hamida says it’s your good will Jalal that you want to talk to Nigar. Jalal tells Atgah to send letter to Nigar, Maham smirks.
Nigar looks at te sword and cuts her hand, she says I will not leave Jalal tomorrow! Abul Mali comes there and says you should sleep, I don’t think women should go for war, leave Jalal to me, Nigar puts sword on his neck and says you still think that I am not capable of war? Jalal is only my target! Abul Mali laughs and says I should sleep now.
Maham comes to the tent and sees Adham and Javeda sleeping, she ask Adham to get up, she informs him that Jalal wants to talk to Nigar to stop this war, Adham says so what? Maham takes her out.
Jalal is looking at his outfit for war, Jodha comes to him and holds his hand, Jalal says I wish I don’t need to wear this outfit, Jalal says you don’t know thar when I wear this outfit, I forget every relations, I don’t see anyone in front of me, I only crave for winning in this outfit, I kill everyone in front of me to win the war in this outfit, I become wild animal in this outfit who only wants winning and who wants to kill his enemy. Jodha says then I also want that this war doesn’t happen.
Jalal says that’s why I was trying to avoid this war, earlier, I used to be happy listening that I am going to war, so that I can be wild and kill people, but when you came into my life, you gave me heart, I have fear that how many sons, how many husbands will get killed in this war and maybe I will be one of them, Jodha says don’t say that, I have prayed for your life, you will win this war, Jalal says warrior has only 2 things I live either to become Shaheed (get killed for God) and if I get Shaheed, then I will be proud that I got killed for my people.
A Soldier comes and says Atgah has called you out, Jalal and Jodha goes out. Atgah says according to your order, we have written letter, Atgah gives letter to the soldier, Jalal says this letter should only reach Nigar, the soldier nods and leaves.
