Hamida comes to Jalal and Jodha, she kisses their heads, Hamida brings gifts, the royal turban and crown for them and make them wear it, all people chants for Jalal and Jodha’s long life, Jodha smiles and looks at Jalal and makes face. Atgah Khan gets up and says Bharmal has gifted you elephants and other animal, Menawati has also sent gifts.
Shehnaz is roaming around and thinks that all are busy in the celebration, I can finish my work which was left due to Gul babdan begum that day, she comes back to her room and sees something in Humayun’s’s biography, she says I have to find things for my work to be done, she closes it and says I should leave before anybody sees me, she comes out of the room.
Moti comes there and ask where are you going? Shehnaz says I am going to the roof. Moti says don’t be sad I will make you see the celebrations. Shehnaz says Jalal will be angry, Moti says we are not going to the celebrations, but I will make you see it, Shehnaz thinks that I got such a nice chance but this Moti bai…??
Hamida says Jalal all Mughal rituals are done, now it’s time for Rajvanshi rituals, he ask what’s it? Hamida says it’s a game of magic eyes, Jodha laughs. Hamida ask them to come, they get up and are going somewhere, Jalal whispers Jodha that you are smiling looking at all, but not looking at me, are you that angry? Jodha says no, but I am angry on your thoughts about Shehnaz, Jalal says I don’t have any personal animosity but I don’t want anybody to be hurt by her, Jodha says she doesn’t do it purposely, Jalal says I know but remember what she did with Rahim, we have to be careful with kids.
Hamida turns and ask what are you advising her related to kids? Jalal says nothing, Jodha knows about kids better, Hamida says how she can know without being a Mother, when she will become a Mother, she will know, Jalal smiles while jodha is shy. They come for the ritual, Hamida gives them a bowl filled with milk and rose petals, she says find the magic eyes in it.
Jalal and Jodha tries to find it, Jalal gets naughty and holds Jodha’s hand in the bowl, Jodha is stunned but couldn’t say anything in front of anyone, Hamida says I heard that Krishna ji used to like this game, Salima says Jodha you have to win, Jodha looks at Jalal and pleads to leave her hand, Jalal leaves it. Jalal makes Jodha win, Hamida says good and ask her to make a wish, Jodha says yes but… Jalal says I will make a wish with her, Hamida says I have already wished that soon, Jodha gives a young brother to Rahim to play with him, Jodha is stunned.
Ruqaiya ask a Servant to bring the Doctor and don’t allow anyone to come in. The Doctor comes, Ruqaiya ask her to sit.
Maham is with some hakim (Doctor), she says I tried everything on a Patient but he is not getting well, the Doctor says every illness has treatment, I will see the patient and then tell you, he goes to check him, Maham says you have to become fine at any cost, so that I can achieve my goals!!
Atgah Khan tells Jalal that some common people wants to congratulate you, they come and praises Jalal-Jodha, they say we hope your wishes get fulfilled, the dancers are dancing and praising Jalal on the song jai ho jai ho… Jalal aks Jodha to come closer, she says what? He says either you didn’t hear or want me to say it out loud about my love, Jodha comes close, Jalal too comes closer.
Jalal whispers to Jodha that we have to talk about child tonight, Jodha looks at him and says this is why you called me close, Jalal says it’s a very important matter, Jodha angrily looks at him and she’s about to go far, but her scarf gets stuck under Jalal’s elbow, Jalal says look, your scarf is also in the mood of naughtiness, Jodha is speechless.
The Doctor which came to meet Ruqaiya, calls Atgah out of the venue, she informs him something. Atgah Khan comes and informs Jalal same and Jalal leaves with him, Jodha looks on.
Jalal comes out and meets that girl, she tells him something which is muted, Jalal says is it true? She nods, Jalal comes to Ruqaiya’s room and says don’t get up, he says is this news true? She says yes, he says this news is very serious for me, so tell me the truth, Ruqaiya says yes, you are going to become a father, I promised you that I will make you a father, I will give you child and I fulfilled my promise.
Jalal gets happy and kisses her forehead, he says you have told me the most beautiful news, I am thankful to God that he gave this happiness, he orders Servants to take full care of Ruqaiya, he says there should be no carelessness in her care, more Servants should be appointed, food should be given after checking, call the Priest who will pray for the child, earlier also, an unfortunate incident happened, I don’t want any worng thing this time, the day which I waited for so long is about to come, you have given me happiness Ruqaiya, I can’t thank you enough,
he kisses her forehead.
Jodha comes there and sees this, he keeps kissing her hand, Jodha couldn’t stand this and closes her eyes, she says Jalal this was the most precious day for me and you came here leaving me there, she recalls how Jalal said that this is the most beautiful day and he wants to spend his life with her, she is teary eyed. Ruqaiya thinks Jodha, now celebrate your anniversary without Jalal.
All the Servants discusses this news of Ruqaiya going to be a Mother, they tells this news to Hamida and Salima, Hamida is beyond happy, Salima says it seems good days are coming, Hamida says the Doctor said that Ruqaiya can’t be a Mother then how did this happened? The Doctor says miracles happen, it was destined to be, I am happy that I was worng. Salima congratulates Hamida. Jiji Anga also congratulate her, she says we should celebrate, we should share this with people, Hamida says unfortunate happened earlier, I don’t want this to happen again, don’t know where the enemy is, we should control our emotions, Jalal and Ruqaiya suffered earlier too.
Jalal is with Ruqaiya and says you have given me the best news, I can’t tell you how much happy I am, I will take care of you even more this time, Jodha sees their affection and can’t tolerate Jalal being so close to Ruqaiya, she leaves from there crying.
All Ministers congratulate Jalal, Jalal says this day is beautiful, I am feeling awesome, like I have wings to fly. Maan Singh says so you should celebrate this good news with people, they should know that your heir is coming, Jalal says once, an incident happened with me, I have many enemies, so I don’t want this news to spread, he ask Atgah Khan to see to the security, he agrees.
Jalal comes out and he’s going, Shehnaz bumps into him and congratulates him. Jalal being happy gifts his necklace to Shehnaz, she says how nice of you, he leaves, she turns evil and says I don’t want this haar (necklace), I want your haar (lost)! She breaks the necklace into pieces.
Jodha is standing near the window and recalls Jalal kissing Ruqaiya, she can’t bear it, she says why am I feeling bad? He is a King, he has many wives, all love him and he loves them too, but why my heart is feeling pain?
Jalal comes there and says where were you? I wanted to share my happiness with yoy, so I came here, Jodha has her back to him and cries and says you have many to share your happiness with. Jalal ask what happened, are you angry? He comes to her, Jodha says don’t disturb me, she is going. Jalal says for God sake tell me what happened? Jodha says nothing, I just want to sleep. Jalal says is it that you saw me close to Ruqaiya, you are not happy that I am going to become a father?
Jodha says you are a King, hiow can I be angry? You have the right to have many wives and Ruqaiya is your first wife, your best friend and the Mother of your unborn child, so why should I be angry? Jalal says the truth is that I don’t exactly remember when I was close to Ruqaiya, when you left me and went to Agra then I went to Ruqaiya then… Jodha says no, I don’t want to hear. I know you have many wives, but what can I do about my heart, how to explain to you that you do not have the right…
Jodha says I may smile from outside, I may pretend to be happy, but how to tell you that I don’t like you to be with someone else, how to explain my heart that if your husband is King, then he has the right to have many women and I being a woman, have to bear it, if a woman thinks of someone else, then it’s a sin, but a man can do this, you can have many wives, but a womeman thinks that at least you accepted her as your Wife, when you are in my room, I try to make you happy, but I even don’t know till when you will respect me and when you will throw me away.
Jalal says how can you even compare me with someone else, you are jealous of Ruqaiya and her child, yes, I have many wives, I have won many in wars and some I married out of my own will, but it was before you because before you came, I was just a stubborn heartless warrior, an unfearful man, I was not human, I thought I didn’t have a heart, but you came and I felt like I have a heart, you made me realise this, there many women who dream about me, but there is no one who can see my dream, they have fear of me, there is no one in them for whom I feel pain if I see them in pain, there is no one that I like to see them smiling, but only you make me feel this.
Jalal says yes, I have the right to have many wives, and I have duty to give them everything, but only YOUR NAME is written on my HEART, it’s only you who attracts me, it’s only you who can push me because you have Jalal’s heart, you are binded with my breath, I want to live with you and for you, your Kahna even had 16 wives, but he had only Radha in his heart, I am a King, I have duties, but when people will call my name, they will take your name too, I will not be remembered as King, but because of the love I have for you, my name will always be written with your name, my love for you will be discussed, Jodha is stunned.
Jalal says when people will talk about my Kingship, they will talk about the love of two people who were different from each other, story will be of a cruel King who became soft and you made him soft, Jalal emotionally looks at her.
Jodha says you may have many duties, you have to give time to every wife, but what can I do about my heart as your Wife? Jalal comes close to her, he says when you know everything, then why this jealousy? Jodha says because I LOVE YOU Emperor.
Jalal is beyond shocked, he says when there is love, then why this distance, he comes close, Jodha moves back, they share an eyelock, Jodha pushes him and tries to leave, but Jalal holds her hand, he grabs her, Jodha tries to free herself, Jalal grabs her by hairs, he whispers in her ear to throw away anger, Jodha says it’s hurting, Jalal leaves her hand, Jodha tries to go, but Jalal holds her scarf, he again comes close but Jodha again goes away, Jalal is disappointed and starts going away from there, Jodha sees him going and runs to him, she hugs him from the back.
Jalal feels her essence, he brings her in front of him and kisses her forehead, he says if you didn’t stop me, even then, I wouldn’t have gone, Jodha looks at him and hugs him tightly, they close eyes and hug each other feeling love. Jodha turns to leave, but Jalal holds her from the back, he comes at her and moves his hand on her arms, he holds her hand in his fist.
Soul Talk– Jodha says that night Jalal, he says yes marium zamani/ Empress, that night was the most beautiful night, that night every wall was removed between us. (it is shown that Jalal is taking Jodha to bed in his arms). Jodha says that night, the moon was more shiny like it was a witness to our togetherness.
Shaguni Bai sees some beads joined and laughs, she says tonight, there will be a new histroy written, it will remembered for years, there is something to this night, love has won this night, let’s dance together.
Jalal and Jodha are on bed, Jodha has her back to Jalal, Jalal caresses her hairs, he takes her in his arms, Jodha closes her eyes and then opens it to see Jalal on her, Jalal slowly takes off her jewelry from her (in ankhon main song plays)… Jalal looks at her and tries to kiss her, but Jodha moves her head, Jalal kisses her neck, Jodha feels shy and gets up, Jalal smiles and gets up, he opens her back thread, he kisses her bare back, Jodha is feeling too shy, she turns to Jalal and makes him lie down on bed, she lies her head on his chest, Jalal holds her in his arms, Jalal pulls the thread of curtain and the curtain falls around the bed. The night continues…
Priest Chisti prays and says to stop this time here, it’s good…
Ruqaiya is enjoying the dance of the Eunuchs, she screams to Wives that I know I am not allowed to drink, but you all can enjoy as much as you can, you can drink too because today is my winning day, today there is only Queen in Jalal’s life, marium zamani (Empress/Queen Mother) Ruqaiya! All chants for her.
Adham Khan and Sharifudden are drinking, Sharifudden says Jalal had anniversary today with Jodha and also got good news of becoming a father, it’s a happy day for him, Adham laughs, Sharifudden says Maham is right, your anger is your enemy. Adham says I got injured for Jalal, I used to save Jalal and got wounds myself, now his heir will come and we will have to salute to him too, Sharifudden ask him to come to his senses, Adham says I came to my senses now, now I will get my right and the throne!
Sharifudden says anger burn oneself, calm down and sit. Adham says my fire will extinguish once I get the throne otherwise, I will burn down the whole nation! Sharifudden says then with whom will you celebrate your success? Will you rule graves?? So have patience, this is not a stable of horses but Mughal rule. He says who knows? Maybe it is a girl, Adham says what if it’s a boy? He says even then, till the time he will understand throne, we will get the chance, just wait, Adham says till when will I wait, I can’t now, he leaves.
Sharifudden says give some senses to him, he is burning the Sultanant, what if my Jodha burns in it?
In the morning, Hoshiyar comes to Ruqaiya and sees all Wives and Ruqaiya sleeping, he ask Ruqaiya to get up, it’s not your room, what if anybody sees you sleeping like this, she gets up and says I didn’t know when I slept, it was a good ceremony, I want to meet Jalal, Hoshiyar says should I inform Jalal that you are coming?
Ruqaiya says I can go to his room without permission, I am his special Queen now, marium zamani (Empress) and mother to his child, I will keep close to Jalal, he says I will make your hairs, Ruqaiya says no need, Jalal will do it, Hoshiyar ask how this happened? Ruqaiya says when person is in pain, have sorrows, then it’s easy to lure him.
Ruqaiya comes out and goes to Jalal’s room but the soldiers stop her, Ruqaiya scolds them saying that I am going to become marium zamani (Empress/Queen Mother), will you stop me?? He says Jalal said… Ruqaiya slaps him and says you will get punished!! Listen I am the special Wife and nobody can go in, she goes inside the room while the Soldier tries to stop him.
Ruqaiya comes to the room and sees curtain over the bed, she removes the curtain a little and sees Jalal and Jodha sleeping together with Jodha’s head on Jalal’s chest, she is shocked to core. Her mouth is wide open, she holds the curtain tightly and has tears in her eyes.
