Jalal spots a tiger, and he’s about to kill it when Jodha tells him that she has removed the Gunpowder from the gun. Jodha lights a flaming torch/touch stick and goes in front of the tiger but the flaming torch. goes off.
Jalal comes in front of the tiger, a fierce battle ensues between the tiger and Jalal, Jalal gets very hurt, but kills the tiger with the dagger, and he also loses consciousness.
Jodha gets hysterical, she pours water on Jalal, he regains consciousness and they both have a talk. Jodha takes him on the horse, but in the mid way, he falls down. Jodha tries to talk to him, and asks him to get up, but eventually, Jalal gives up.
Jodha breaks down thinking how will this news be taken in Agra. She finally picks Jalal up and puts him on the horse, when the Commander and some soldiers come, and they take him to Agra.
The Muslim physicians start their medical treatment on Jalal. Maham Anga tells the Chief Minister that she will command the army in place of Jalal. Hamida bano comes and faints on seeing Jalal.
Hamida bano is hysterical, while Salima tries to contain her. Hamida bano asks Jodha how did the tragedy happen, and she tells her the entire thing and owns up that she is responsible for Jalal’s state. Hamida bano gets angry at Jodha, she tells Salima that no one should get a whiff of what Jodha has done, especially Ruqaiya!
Hamida bano says that Jodha has no idea what will happen to the empire if Jalal is not there!
Maham Anga addresses the Mughal army, apprising them of the situation that Jalal got hurt during hunting and to be on full alert. The cries of “Victory Victory to India” rent the air.
Salima asks some Queens to hide the fact about Jodha removing the bullets from Ruqaiya, but the very next moment, it travels in all directions.
Hoshiyar also decides that Ruqaiya should not know of this fact. Jodha comes and says that she will be the one to tell the truth to Ruqaiya, as she deserves to know about it.
Jodha comes to Ruqaiya’s chamber and tells her the truth. Ruqaiya gives her 2 slaps and gets furious and again, slaps her. Ruqaiya throws Jodha to the floor and rushes off to see Jalal.
Adham Khan is rejoicing with his people that he will soon be the emperor of the Sultanate!
Ruqaiya on her way to Jalal’s room recalls all the Flashback scenes of their Childhood days.
Maham Anga, Hamida bano, all the key Ministers, Jodha and Ruqaiya are at Jalal’s room. Ruqaiya gets hysterical on seeing the condition of Jalal and asks him to get up! A Muslim physician says the wounds are getting worse. Everyone prays for him to get better.
The news spread like wild fire across Hindustan, and the enemies start plotting against the Mughals.
Jodha is preparing some remedy (especially to treat wounds from cheetah’s claws), and gets a flashback of how she learnt to make the same remedy from a Muslim physician back in Amer, when Sujamal got hurt. FB ends.
Hamida bano comes and tells the guard to take the remedy and be applied on Jalal. She also cautions Jodha to be alert, as everyone thinks of her as a traitor, and someone might attempt on her life too, to get even with her, as she is responsible for Jalal’s state.
Maham Anga and others are waiting for the royal Muslim physician to arrive when the guard comes with the remedy. Maham Anga says that Hamida bano still trusts Jodha.
Gul Badan gives the remedy to the other Muslim physicians present there, and they apply it and tell that it’s a superb medicine, as it has started showing results.
The Muslim physician suddenly tells that the medicine has a side effect, as Jalal is running a high temperature.
Ruqaiya and Maham Anga talks ill about Jodha. The Muslim physician tells that now, it’s only PRAYER that can save Jalal, as none of the medicines are working on him.
The Muslim physician tells everyone that the next 24 hours is very crucial for Jalal’s health.
A Maid informs Jodha that her medicine has not worked and Gwaliors’ Muslim physician hasn’t yet arrived. Jodha prays to Kanhaji/lord that why does all her actions have an opposite effect?
Hamida bano comes and tells Jodha to come along with her to a safe place. Jodha is reluctant, but Hamida bano orders her to follow her!
Salima asks all the Queens to have the last food of their life, as Jalal is fighting for his life.
Ruqaiya comes and says that she will be the first one to consume poison, as the enemies will take undue advantages of them once Jalal dies!
Javeda asks Adham Khan how he could rejoice when the King is in danger? Some Queens gather the valuables and are trying to escape the Palace.
Shariffudden comes to Adham Khan and hears that Adham Khan has planned to kill the Royal Muslim physician, they’ve been waiting for his arrival to Agra. Shariffudden tells Adham Khan to choose between Agra and Delhi and they both strike a deal.
All the ladies (Ruqaiya, Salima, Hamida bano, Gul Badan) are praying for Jalal. Even Jodha and her Maids start singing bhajans (Motet).
On the other hand, the Royal Muslim physician is attacked by some Men, but he manages to escape from them.
