Friday Update on Jodha & Akbar, 15th October, 2021

At the engagement function, Jalal comes in with Salim, all greets them, Jalal asks to start the engagement ceremony, Salim and Mann Baisa sit in front of each other, the Priests starts the function, he congratulate them, Jodha ask Salim to make Mann Baisa wear the ring, he takes the ring and recalls Anarkali, then finally makes her wear the ring, then Mann Baisa makes Salim wear the ring, all are happy.

Jalal congratulates Salim and says I am very happy for you, he hugs him, Maan Singh says to Jalal that you decided to give a gift to that Dancer today, Jalal says I remember, Maan says her performance is ready, Salim thinks that now, I will have to see her face again.

Anarkali starts her dance in the engagement function, Salim is angry, Ruqaiya thinks that whom Salim loves is dancing in front of him and he is stuck with the one whom he doesn’t love, Son this pain will go beyond limits and then Jodha will bear the consequences!

Anarkali looks at Salim with sadness while dancing, she wipes her tears, after the dance, Jalal says that your performance made this function more good, I appreciate your work.

Haidar Khan thinks that girl will bring storm in Jalal and Salim’s life!

Jalal ask Maan Singh to give her lots of gifts, Salim leaves, Anarkali says I am sorry but I don’t need wealth in gift, I want other thing, I want your official statement, my father was innocent, but he was called a betrayer, you announce him innocent please. Jalal ask for her father’s name? She says Rashid Khan who used to work in the Palace, Jalal says I had forgiven him way back, Anarkali says but your people didn’t forgive him, Jalal ask where is he now? Anarkali says he left the world with this tag, he is dead, Jalal ask how did he die? Anarkali says when people didn’t forgive him, we left Agra, but when he came back, he was called betrayer, he died with this baggage.

Jalal says to Maan Singh that send statement in which Rashid’s cemetery will be given royal treatment, he will be called loyal of Mughal family and if anyone says his family is a betrayer, then they will be punished!

Anarkali says you are a great King, I wanted only this, I don’t need anything else. Jalal says this is not your reward, you will be given house, you will get Servants and food, also take these coins. Anarkali says what you have done for me is more than enough, thank you so much, she leaves.

Anarkali is going out of the Palace when Salim throws tons of coins on her, he says what happened? I am giving you reward, this is a gift on dance that you did in my function, take it, for these coins, you have come here, you are very lucky to get so much money, now you can have a whole house for your dance! She is about to leave, but Salim grabs her and says your betrayer father must have taught you to backstab people! Anarkali says don’t call my father a betrayer, Salim says did you forget whom you are talking to?

Anarkali says I didn’t forget, as you are the one reason for all my pain, but you have forgotten that you are going to be King, you have to be nice with people, what kind of rule will you make? It will be hell, all innocents will be called as betrayer, their will be no Doctors for people, there will be no respect for girls, where a King will make a respectful girl a Dancer, in your government, girls will be made to sit whole night in dance rooms so that she will be disrespected!

Salim ask her to control her tongue! He grabs her by neck, Anarkali says I was made a Thief, my father was called a betrayer, nobody came for his treatment, when I went to help him, then I was kidnapped in dance room because you wanted me to become a Dancer, what was my mistake? That in Childhood, I asked for justice? I only told the truth, or was it my mistake to love you like common Soldier? The mistake of mine was that I choose the wrong person to love, now I have only hate!

Salim says it’s your habit to first do things, then allege others! Anarkali says you have ordered your Soldiers to make me sit in dance bars, Salim holds her by hand.

Jodha finds them like this and ask what Anarkali is doing with him? Anarkali leaves, Salim thinks who did this with her? Who used my name?

Jodha recalls how Salim first denied for marriage, then later agreed for engagement and did it, and how he was just holding Anarkali’s hand.

Jalal comes to her, Jalal says I am very happy that Salim got engaged, you will be Mother-in-law now, now you will rule one more person than me, he says I know you are tensed about Anarkali, Jodha gets shocked, Jalal says I feel same, I am hurt with her words too, what happened with her father was very bad, now I will give her justice, now their problems will be solved, he leaves. Jodha says i have to find out what’s between Anarkali and Salim.

Salim is in his room and recalls how Anarkali said that she was forced to become a Dancer, he thinks that why she said I did all this, if she was really forced? I shouldn’t believe her, she is a cheater and I wanted bad to happen with her, but why am I feeling bad for her now? What is happening with me?

Haidar Khan is with his men, his Uncle comes there and says seems like you have created plan to create fight between Salim and Jalal, Haidar Khan says this plan will end their relations! His Uncle says I hope that you don’t fail this time? Haider says never, as Anarkali is Jalal’s favourite now, when she will be alleged for stealing, then she will complain to Jalal about Salim! His Uncle says what if she doesn’t complain about Salim? Haidar Khan says nothing like this will happen, she cares about her respect, so she will open her mouth against Salim.

Jalal is in Court, he says to Todar that punish Thieves and take tax from them and if they keep stealing, then cut off their hands! Todar says Rashid’s daughter Anarkali is alleged for stealing Necklace from the Market, all are shocked.

Salim recalls how Anarkali said that she was falsely alleged for stealing. Haidar Khan thinks now, the game will start! Jalal ask to bring Anarkali here.

Anarkali and Zil Bahar are in the new house, Zil Bahar says your father is clean now, don’t know if our time is changing or taking us to another problem, Anarkali says the things which happened were so worst that nothing more worst can happen now, Anarkali finds her father’s outfit, she cries and says I have house now, I have Servants, but I don’t feel anything, it’s all plain and colourless for me without my father, I don’t want to live here.

Zil Bahar says if you want that, then we will leave from here, no royal statement can stop us, let’s leave, Anarkali says no, I can’t leave now, Zil Bahar says but you want to leave? Anarkali says I never wanted Rahid to die, but he died, nothing can happen with my wishes, yes I want to leave, but I can’t. Zil Bahar says this is all because of that Salim, Anarkali says no, I am not doing this for Salim, but for Rashid, he once said that don’t get the tag of betrayer, if I don’t follow royal statement now and leave, then I will be called betrayer, I with much difficulty cleaned my father’s name, I can’t let it get stained again.

Soldier comes there and ask Anarkali to come in Court.

Anarkali comes in Court, Jalal says you stole Necklace from the Market, you want to say something? Haidar Khan thinks now she will take Salim’s name, Anarkali says yes, I want to say yes, I stole that Necklace, Haidar Khan is shocked and thinks why is she lying?

Anarkali says when a thing is brought from my things, then it means I stole it, Jalal ask what you want to say? Anarkali says I didn’t steal that Necklace, I don’t know who had put it in my things, so there is no point in discussing it, just punish me for stealing. One Minister Shah Abdullah says that if she is accepting her mistake, then punish her and take Royal Dancer title from her too, she doesn’t deserve it.

Jalal says you are right, he throws his sword at the Minister and says that you stole my Sword! The Minister says why will I do it? Jalal says my Sword is with you and it’s proven that you stole it! Jalal takes the Sword and says only I know that you didn’t steal my Sword, but you can’t prove it. Jalal says sometimes, you know the person can’t be the Culprit, the one who didn’t take my gift of many coins, why will she steal for so much less money? Anarkali can’t steal, she is innocent.

Jalal ask Anarkali if you doubt anyone? She looks at Salim and says no, I don’t know, maybe someone unintentionally put it in my things, Jalal says find soon who stole that Necklace.

Salim says you are right, I want to investigate this matter and will bring the Culprit to you. Anarkali looks at him.

Anarkali thanks Jalal for being so matured, she looks at Salim emotionally and leaves.

Jodha thinks why is Salim taking the responsibility of this matter?

Salim ask Haidar that why did you do this with Anarkali? Why did you disrespect her? Haidar Khan says I did that because you asked me to, Salim says I didn’t ask you to stoop so low! Haidar says if you want to destroy a girl, then you have to malign her respect, which is why I alleged her as a Thief, I made her spend night in a dance bar. Salim asks why didn’t you ask me? I didn’t want her life to destroy to this level! Haidar Khan says you can kill me, I just wanted to avenge you, Salim says remember one thing, that don’t you ever hurt her, and just leave! He leaves.

Salim says why am I feeling bad for Anarkali? I wanted revenge, but why am I feeling bad for her? Do I love her even now? No, I can’t, but I have to say sorry to her for all this.

Salim comes to the dance bar, he ask where is Anarkali? A Servant says I don’t know, Salim finds a letter there, he reads it, it says that;

Qutub, you may be a common Soldier, but you are special to me, I know you will not read these letters, but I want to pour my heart into these letters, I want to tell you that my real name is Nadela, I had to change it because my life got changed because of Salim which is why I hate him, you are my life now, I love you a lot, you may be a common Soldier, but for me, you are King and I want to spend my life with you, your Anarkali.

Voiceover says at that time, Jalal’s name was on top, there was no enemy of his, it was all Rule of Jalaluddin!

Jalal is with his Ministers, they are celebrating his victory, Birbal says now, there is no one who can’t stand in front of you, Jalal says I am feeling very happy, Shah Abdullah says to Jalal that nothing here can move without your order. Birbal says what you are trying to say is that Jalal is God? Shah says why not, he is like our god.

Other Minister says that Jalal is called shadow of god and you people also take Kings as god, Birbal says you are going towards a different thing.

Jalal ask him to calm down, they are just joking, he gives him drink, Birbal says to Tansen that do you find it good that someone is called God? Tansen says King is like god for people, Birbal says your knowledge is weak, Todar says I understand your problem, people like Shah should not be around Jalal.

Jalal says to Ministers that I have everything now, POWER, THRONE, FAME, whatever my wishes are, becomes true, I am above all. Shah says yes, I was saying that you are god of people, what gods can do, you can do too, you are the owner of everyone, Jalal smiles.

Birbal says to Todar that they are filling Jalal’s ears with wrong things.

Salim is reading letters of Anarkali, he says I did many mistakes, she is innocent and I did wrong with her.

Anarkali comes there, she snatches the letters from him and says I know you are the Crown Prince/Heir, but that doesn’t mean you have right to come into my house and see my things! Salim says I did mistake, she says I don’t want to talk to you, leave from here! He says listen to me, I got to know what happened to you, I agree that I hate you, but I never wanted all this Anarkali, she says I am Nadela! He says I am sorry for everything, he sits in her feet, and says I have regret. She says you made me a Thief, you made me a Dancer, I can forgive you for all this, but I can’t forgive you for my father’s death, you can make me respectful person again, but you can’t bring back my father, can you?

Salim says I have guilt, she says nothing can sort with your guilt, nothing is left to say, I don’t need any forgiveness, nobody will ask you what you were doing in Dancer’s house, but people will point fingers at me, leave from here! Salim ask don’t you love me? Anarkali says I don’t love you, Salim says then what are all these letters for? She says these are for Qutub, he was not a Prince, he used to respect girls, Qutub died for me, and the day I got to know about Salim, love is dead for me!

Salim says then why are these letters still with you? Anarkali burns them and says now you got answers? now everything is finished, what a love you had, first, you snatched my childhood, then you snatched my love, then my father and now, snatched the memories of these letters too, go from here! She cries. He tries to console her, but cries too, Rabba is pyaar mein sad version plays… He leaves, Anarkali looks at him and cries.

Salim says Oh God, what I did? I destroyed her life, the person’s life whom I wanted to spend life with, I filled her life with pricks, the one whom I love?

Ministers says to Jalal that you are ruling everyone now, Jalal says I am happy that people love me, Shah says you can solve problem of all, you are Master of all, you should introduce coins which have your name and God’s name in it.

Birbal says are you guys mad? How can you call him God? The Priest says that Jalal is God’s shadow, Birbal says he is not God, they keep fighting, Jalal gets angry, he ask Birbal what is the difference between God and King??? Birbal says God can give and take life, King can bring happiness in life, Jalal, a King can make anyone’s life? Todar says no, God can create human, King can’t, he can’t make hearts happy, only God can give peace.

Soul Talk– Jalal says in human’s life, a time comes when he start disbelieving in God because of his ego, he starts thinking that he is the owner of the world and this is what happened to me, the one who used to bow to God wanted people to bow to him now, this made me go to another tangent.

Jalal says to Birbal that I accept that I can’t be God, but King can give anything to people, he can make and destroy lives of people, so I order;

To introduce coins of my name and God’s name!

Birbal says God must not be happy with you, Shah says he is next to God, Birbal says if your hand is cut, can Jalal give it back to you? Jalal says I have decided, make these coins fast, so people can understand that if that God doesn’t listen to them, then this god will listen to them!
