Bharmal is worried about the elephant fiasco and relieved that Jalal did not get hurt. Atgah Khan also tells Jalal to be careful, but Jalal says that he will face everything and can’t run from Amer. Bharmal assures him that the Culprit will be caught!
Maham Anga signals to Hamida bano that Jalal should leave to Agra, but they both have a face off. Hamida bano says that she has given birth to Jalal and right now, the time is not conducive to leave Agra!
Maham Anga is exasperated to hear this, but restrains herself and agrees that it’s okay to use her mind more than the heart in this situation.
Bharmal orders his Soldiers to find the Culprit ASAP!
Menewati goes into Hyper mode and asks Jodha to see if Jalal is angry with the situation?
A Muslim Physician comes with some ark for the Confectioner and Jalal says that he will give it to the Confectioner himself.
Atgah Khan comes and informs Jalal that the Culprit isn’t found yet and Jalal says he can’t trust either Rajvanshis or the Mughals!
Jodha comes and requests Jalal to leave Amer because if something happens to him, then it will malign the image of Amer. Jalal is hurt that she doesn’t care for him. He gives her his robe, Sword and his already-tied turban, and asks her what she will do in such a situation? Jodha taunts him and tells him that she’s just pitying him, and Jalal replies, that destiny chose him to be the emperor! She leaves.
At the henna ceremony, the Sisters tease Jodha. Some troops of Aunt also comes for the henna ceremony, and they too talk about Jalal.
Maham Anga gets angry at Javeda, as she’s taking an active part in the henna ceremony! She threatens her and leaves the venue.
Jalal is in a contemplative mood, when the troops of Aunt comes and ask him how is their henna? They tell him that Jodha’s henna is the most beautiful and she will be dancing in the function. He asks them where, and they show him the direction to the hall, but tells him that Men aren’t allowed in the function, and it will go night long.
Jalal thinks if Jodha is dancing, then he will definitely watch it, as he is a King and her husband.
The Wedding function in the hall starts and Jodha is dancing to the henna tattoo song. Javeda wants to join the dance and Maham Anga scolds her!
Jalal is peeping. He smiles like a love-struck teenage boy. Jodha is lost in dancing and she spots Jalal, and the function comes to an end. The troops of Aunt tells her that Jalal knew that he is not allowed to watch the dance.
Jalal in his room, takes the scarf and thinks about Jodha’s dance. She comes and scolds him as to why he watched the dance? He asks her to punish him. He then says NO, and he again riles her by asking if she has started liking him? Jodha then had to give him a punishment of 500 push-ups. He started to remove his clothes, and Jodha gets awkward. He starts doing the push ups and gives out suggestive moans and sounds, Jodha gets worried and tells him to stop it, as people might take out a different meaning. He then tells her to massage his shoulders, and he again teases her. Jodha then leaves in anger.
Sukanya tells Jodha that Jalal is such a nice person and he saved her marriage once again. Jodha-Sukanya share an emotional moment.
The bridegroom comes. Amer’s clan and that of Agra welcomes the groom and his family. Jalal thinks about his marriage with Jodha. Menewati graces Jalal’s forehead too, and some of it falls on his nose. Jodha signals to him to wipe it off, but he doesn’t understand. One of the troops of Aunt goes and helps him.
Jodha tells her that Jalal is a fool. Jalal too does the same with Jodha and she also wipes her nose, then the same little girl tells Jodha that Jalal made a fool of her. (A very cute, light moment between Jodha-Jalal).
Shariffudden is playing with sand. Adham Khan comes and Shariffudden tells that the explosion is going to go off soon. Adham Khan asks what if he fails, and Shariffudden tells him to bide/wait for the time, when the groom’s father will ask for the fort from Jalal, as that fort is very important to the Mughal sultanate.
Everyone is gathered in the hall and the dowry list is being announced, the groom’s father asks for Ratanpur fort. Jalal tells that it cannot be given out. The groom’s father tells him that Shariffudden promised him the same thing. Shariffudden does a Volte-face.
Bharmal tries to talk to the father, but he says that he wants his kingdom to be protected from the Mughals, as well as the Rajputs. Jalal is quite angry with the turn of events.
Shariffudden asks the father in-law if he has any evidence that there was a promise made for the fort between them, and threatens him. The Father in-law also gives a tit-for-tat reply and once again, reminds him of the promise. Adham Khan also takes Shariffudden’s side.
The future Son in-law takes a vow on the goddess that the promise was made between them. The Father in-law says no Rajput can lie using the name of the goddess. Pratap leaves the Palace.
Maham Anga comes in and says that it’s the Rajputs who are lying. Father in-law accuses Maham Anga, Adham Khan and Shariffudden of lying. Jalal then loses his temper. He says that he won’t listen to anything said against his Aunt (Maham Anga) and Shariffudden and now, he has decided that he won’t give out the fort, and would find another groom for Sukanya!
