Ruqaiya comes out of the room, she feels like vomiting, she is crying and shaking, some Wives comes and ask you here? Seems you went to meet Jalal, what Jalal said? She says he is very happy, they ask what he gifted you? Ruqaiya says he gifted me something so unique, a very beautiful and unexpected gift that nobody could have ever gave, they ask to show it, Ruqaiya says it’s special, so I will not make you see it, look, I have tears in my eyes with happiness, they say Jodha could not even think about a gift he gifted to Ruqaiya, Ruqaiya says yes, I hope he gifts Jodha like it too. She leaves in huff.
Ruqaiya comes to her room, she recalls what she had seen, she cries miserably, she says why Jalal? Why Jalal?? Why did you do that? Why you wanted to have Jodha’s arms warmth when I gave you happiness? She ITALICS NEXT recalls how Jodha once asked that are you sure if you tell Jalal, then he will not look at me and how Ruqaiya answered yes and asked her to bow down in front of her so that Jalal won’t look at her! Jodha said that’s okay, I am bowing in front of you and in return of that, make sure that Jalal doesn’t look at me! FB ends.
Ruqaiya also recalls how Maham said that you have to be afraid of Jodha and make Jalal yours. FB ends. She wipes her tears and starts laughing, she calls a Servant and says to bring Jodha now! Tell her I want to meet her, the Servant goes. Ruqaiya smirks.
Jodha and Jalal are sleeping, with Jalal holding Jodha tightly, Jodha wakes up and sees Jalal’s hand around her waist, she recalls last night, she takes off his hand and gets up, she is about to go, but Jalal holds her hand, he says never think that a King is in deep sleep. Jalal says kings have weak sleep, Jodha says but your Wife wants to go to her room, Jalal kisses her shoulder and says King doesn’t like that someone goes from his room without his permission.
Jodha glances at him and goes from the bed, she wears her jewelry, Jalal says you are ignoring my order, Jodha says don’t forget that husband doesn’t give orders to Wives but requests them. Jalal comes to her smiling, Jalal says I am a Prisoner of your nature, Jodha says you are forgetting you removed slavery from rule, your place is not my feet, your place is in my heart, Jalal says I am your slave because you love my heart not my position, Jodha says let me go, Jalal says I request you to stay, Jodha says I accept your request, Jalal smiles and gets close to her, she blushes.
A Soldier informs that Moti wants to meet Jodha, Jodha says I will come. She comes out and says to Moti that what you did, it’s not good, you disturbed Jalal’s leisure time, Moti says I know but Ruqaiya wants to meet you, she is pregnant, Jodha says okay, I will come. She comes back in and wears her jewelry.
Jalal is lying on the bed and says what did Moti say? Jodha says I have to go, Jalal makes sad face, Jodha comes to him on bed and whispers in his ears that Ruqaiya called, I will come after meeting her, Jalal smiles broadly.
Jodha comes to Ruqaiya and ask you called me? Ruqaiya ask her to come and sit, Jodha sits. Ruqaiya says the day is beautiful, Jodha agrees. Ruqaiya sees her earring and says it’s bent, I think you forgot to take it off before sleeping, I will make it right, she takes the earring from her, she says I like to straighten bent things, she gives the earring back to Jodha after making it right, she says you didn’t change the dress you wore for your ceremony, you didn’t change it before sleeping?
Jodha says I was tired so…, Ruqaiya says are you hiding something? Jodha says no, Ruqaiya says your eyes are saying that you didn’t sleep the whole night, must be playing with Rahim, she says you know Jalal loves me a lot from childhood, he gave me this earring, he bought it from Kabul, after our wedding, he spent most days in my room, it’s his habit that when he likes something, he keeps holding it, then many Wives came and we became good friends, then just being husband and wife, but manhood is like this, they want destination, they run to catch destination and when they reach there, they try to find another destination.
Jodha ask do you need something? Ruqaiya says you know I am pregnant, I am giving child to Jalal, I have the Mughal heir with me so I want you to take care of me, Jodha ask what you mean? Ruqaiya says I have Jalal’s biggest happiness, he wanted kid and it’s the happiest news for him, I lost his heir earlier and there are still many enemies of Jalal around, I don’t trust any Servant, I trust only you, you are a good hearted woman, she pretends and says see my feet are swollen, can you massage it? Jodha is stunned.
Ruqaiya says I feel bad to ask you this, but you are the most eligible for it, Jodha nods and sits in Ruqaiya’s feet. Jodha is doing massage of Ruqaiya’s feet, Ruqaiya looks at her and says will you take care of me? Jodha says yes, Ruqaiya says now, I got peace, I trust only you, she holds Jodha’s hand and ask again will you take care of me for Jalal’s unborn child? Jodha lowers her eyes.
Jodha comes to her room and thinks of Ruqaiya’s words, Jalal comes there and says what is this, I was waiting for you and you didn’t come, why has Ruqaiya called you? He sees her sad and ask why there is tears in your eyes? Jodha says nothing, Jalal ask why Ruqaiya called you? Jodha tells him that Ruqaiya wants me to take care of her as bad incident happened earlier, Jalal says how could she have ask you that? Jalal says there are many Servants in the Harem, so you don’t have to do anything, I will talk to Ruqaiya, he turns to go, but Jodha holds his hand and stops him.
Jodha says don’t do this, Jalal says I can’t see tears in your eyes, Jodha says Ruqaiya has your child, she is giving heir to the Mughal Sultanate/Empire, she has your future child, and if Ruqaiya wants me to do her services, and if she will get peace with it, then I will do it because Ruqaiya is not only your Wife, but she is the Mother of your unborn child, he is your happiness and I will do everything which gives you happiness, if she gets peace, then I will do it and also, your child will healthy.
Jalal says I never understood women, you are different when you are a lover then Wife, and totally different when you are a Mother. Jalal says you proved again that you have a very big heart, you are different from all. Jalal says how much wives Krishna ji had? Jodha says sixteen thousand plus, and he used to go to all Wives.
Jalal says even then with whom he stands with as an idol? Jodha looks at him and says Radha, understanding what he means, they share an eyelock, he kisses her forehead, Jalal says today, I am going to announce a big thing, I want you to be there, Jodha nods, Jalal kisses her hand, Jodha smiles. Jalal leaves.
Jodha comes to Ruqaiya, Ruqaiya ask you here? Jodha says you told me that you feel safe with my presenc, so I came here, Jodha sees her puffing hookah (Shisha), Jodha says it’s unhealthy for you and that of the baby’s health, she ask the Servant to stop giving her hookah and give her healthy things, she says give Ruqaiya massage two times in a day, Ruqaiya just looks on. Ruqaiya says the weather is very hot, Jodha says to the Servant to place cool sheets behind the curtains, Ruqaiya seems impressed, Jodha says hot weather takes away water from the body so you have to take watery thing every hour.
Jodha checks her fever and ask her to be careful, Ruqaiya feels headache, Jodha ask what happened? Ruqaiya says headache, can you please massage it? Jodha agrees happily, Ruqaiya says I am getting peace, now I understand why Jalal keeps praising you.
Jalal comes there, he ask Ruqaiya to keep lying down, Jodha says she is fine, Jalal ask a Servant to bring juice for Ruqaiya, Jodha says I already called for one, Jalal says I forget that you are here, so mistake can never happen, Ruqaiya is angry.
Hamida comes there, she sits beside Ruqaiya and ask about her health? Ruqaiya says I am fine as you are all with me, Hamida says you are giving heir to the Mughals so be strong.
Salima says Hamida brought some gifts for you, Hamida makes her wear the bangle and says this bangle was given to me when Jalal was about to be born, Ruqaiya is happy and shows it to Jodha, Jodha says it’s beautiful, Salima says it’s good that Ruqaiya and Jodha are sharing good rapport, Ruqaiya says time changes everything, this unborn child changed me, Salima says good that you understood Jodha’s good heart, Hamida says I am leaving as Jodha is with you.
Jodha sits on the sofa, Jalal says to Ruqaiya that I should leave now, he comes to Jodha and whispers that don’t forget me while taking care of everyone, take time for me too, I want to talk to you, so come to my room, Jodha says I can’t now, as I have to be with Ruqaiya, Jalal says whenever you get the time try to come, they smile.
Ruqaiya is jealous seeing them so close, Jalal leaves, Jodha gives juice to Ruqaiya, Ruqaiya thanks her, a Servant comes and says Jalal called Jodha. Ruqaiya says you go Jodha, maybe Jalal has some work for you, I am fine, Jodha says okay I will come back soon, you take rest, she leaves, Ruqaiya fumes.
Jodha comes to Jalal and says what urgent work you had that you called me here? Jalal says I heard that Rajvanshi women take care of their husbands the most, it’s their duty. Jodha says right, what you want me to do? Jalal says I am feeling pain, how to get rid of it? Jodha ask where is it hurting? Jalal puts her hand on his heart and says until you are in front of me, my heart pumps, it stops when you go away from me, what to do? Jodha says not good, I was taking care of Ruqaiya and you called me lying? Jalal says you also go away from me lying, Jalal says it’s time for Ruqaiya to sleep so you can concentrate on me, Jodha blushes.
Ruqaiya thinks why has Jalal called Jodha? What work he had that he couldn’t stop, she ask the Servant to bring hookah (Shisha), the Servant says but Jodha… Ruqaiya scolds her that you are my Servant, bring hookah!! She goes to bring it.
Jalal lies his head in Jodha’s lap and says all thinks of you as Queen, but for me you are a Magician, Jodha caresses his hairs, Jalal says you do magic that restlessness goes away.
Ruqaiya thinks while puffing hookah that why is Jodha taking much time? Is Jalal and Jodha again…??
The Servant comes to Jalal’s room, Jalal scolds her, the Servant informs him that Ruqaiya health is deteriorating, Jalal and Jodha are shocked.
Ruqaiya is coughing, Jalal and Jodha comes there, Jalal ask what happened? Ruqaiya says I am feeling restless, I am feeling dizzy, Jalal takes her in his arms and says nothing will happen to you, Jodha says I told you to not take hookah, and this happened because of it. Ruqaiya ask Jalal do you love me? Jalal says I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU. Jodha feels bad, Jalal takes her to bed and says I am with you, Jodha is with you so don’t worry.
Ruqaiya says I feel nice that Jodha is with me, she takes good care of me, she says I have headache, will you prepare remedy for me? Jodha agrees and starts making the remedy, Ruqaiya says Jalal, take me in your arms, she tightly holds Jalal and hugs him while Jalal makes her comfortable, Jodha sees it and feels bad, Ruqaiya thinks whenever Jalal will come close to Jodha, I will come in between!!
Shehnaz comes to Adham Khan’s room to find some proofs, she is tensed and says I have to take risk, she is searching when Adham comes and hugs her from behind, she says who are you? He says for whom you came here? She says I came for doll, Adham says I will bring many dolls for you, Shehnaz pushes him and comes out of the room.
Adham ask Shehnaz to spend some time with him, he holds her scarf and says I want it, she laughs and says you need my scarf, then take it, she gives it to him and says I didn’t know you wear scarf, Adham gets angry and grabs her saying you are making fun of me?? Shehnaz slaps him hard for touching her, Jodha sees it. Shehnaz starts laughing and asks Adham did you enjoy that?
Jodha comes there, Shehnaz says he snatched my scarf, Jodha asks Adham why he did that? He says she came to my room not me, so I went to her, Jodha says that doesn’t mean you will snatch her scarf, she gives the scarf to Shehnaz, Adham says she is mad, as she roams in other’s rooms, her freedom should be snatched away, Jodha says things are changing in this Palace and if you want things to not go further, remember my warning to not do this again, she scolds Shehnaz to not roam around, they leave.
All the Prisoners that were freed comes into the Palace to get official freedom, Zakira sees Rahim playing in lawn, she snatches a knife from a soldier and runs towards Rahim, she attacks Rahim, Rahim becomes unconscious.
Jodha, Salima comes there and finds blood on Rahim’s face, Jalal also comes there. Jalal is stunned, Jalal shouts at Zakira that I freed you and you did this?? He orders to put her behind bars, I will decide your punishment!! Zakira says my intention was not wrong, Jalal takes out his sword, Rahim gets conscious, Jalal sees snake in prickly plant.
Zakira informs Jalal that I was waiting for you when I saw Rahim moving towards this snake, I was with snakes my whole life so I knew that this snake was very dangerous and time was less to save Rahim so I took the soldier’s sword and attacked the snake not Rahim, Jalal says oh, I didn’t see it earlier, he ask the Soldiers to leave her.
In Court, Jalal thanks Zakira, he says you took the right decision and saved Rahim, Zakira says you freed me, I did such a big mistake even then, you forgave me, I took many lives when I was with Benazir, but today, I came to know it’s such a beautiful thing to save a life, I can even give my life for you. Jalal ask what you need as gift? Zakira says I don’t need anything but if you want to give me then take me in under your support, include me in your royal Servants in the Palace.
Atgah says she was with Benazir for a long time, and she tried to take your life, we can’t trust her. Jodha gets up and says I second Atgah, she was with Benazir and maybe she did all this to get our trust, then she can come close and will do what Benazir couldn’t do, if she can snatch a knife from a soldier to kill a snake, then she can kill anybody else, she tried to attack Jalal, how can I trust you?
Zakira says you gave me life, Zakira says to Jodha if you don’t trust me, then you can even behead me, Jodha says if that’s the case, then kill yourself, a Servant brings knife, Jodha ask her to kill herself, Zakira says I will be happy to give my life for you, she’s about to stab herself, but Jodha stops her and says I was just checking your loyalty, you don’t nedd to kill yourself, she ask Jalal to take her in the Palace.
Salima says Jodha is right, she saved Rahim’s life, she did a big thing so we should take her as a Servant, Jalal agrees, Jodha says I want to take her under my control. Jalal says you are very intelligent, first, you checked her loyalty and when she was proved loyal, you are taking her in, Jodha is stunned to see his taunt even in Court, Jalal says you want to take all the loyal people under you, he gets conscious that he is in Court and says okay, she will work for Jodha now, the Court meeting ends, Jalal is about to leave, but turns and smiles at Jodha who smiles broadly.
Ruqaiya is in her room, she sees Jalal coming to the Harem, she says now Jalal will only come to her room, she sees Jalal going to Jodha’s room, she says what? he should be with me.
Zakira thanks Jodha for taking her under her support, Jodha says sorry, I had to take your test just to satisfy myself, Jodha says now, I will ask Ruqaiya to take back Hoshiyar, Hoshiyar has worked for her many years, he knows her likes and dislikes, she will be happy to have him back.
Jalal comes and says whose happiness? Zakira and Moti leaves, Jodha says you here? Jalal says do I need any reason to come to you, can’t I come with a reason that I want to come to you? I want to spend time with you. Jalal says now, I should be afraid of you as Zakira is with you who was once with Benazir, now you can trap me, Jodha says if that’s the case, then you should be, they laugh.
Jalal is holding his neck, Jodha ask what happened? Jalal says I have pain in the neck, Jodha says I will bring home cream, she comes and start massaging his neck, he says this cream is amazing, Jodha says I learnt this cream from my Amer Doctor, Jalal says I don’t know if magic is in your hands or in this cream, Jodha says it’s not in the cream, neither in my hands, but magic in your thoughts, it is said that when you enjoy someone’s company, your pain also goes away with his company.
Jalal says I want to ask you something serious, I am very busy in political matters as Maham is not there and also Ruqaiya is not putting her inputs in politics, so will you help me in political matters? Jodha says how can I, I am taking care of Ruqaiya, as she is giving birth to your child, Jalal says you take care of everyone but doesn’t think about yourself, this is also a talent of yours, Jodha smiles.
Jalal and Jodha comes close to kiss, but a Servant comes and says Ruqaiya is calling Jodha, Jalal says again? Jodha says yes.
