Mah Chuchak comes to her Court of Kabut, she ask whether all betrayers are in our hands? Her Minister informs that some are not caught, we have to work for it, Mah Chuchak says I want results, if you can’t give me their heads, then give your head, I have one rule, to save time and place the heads of my betrayers in market so everybody can see the result of betraying me, she says Tajir Beg (her right hand man) I want to talk to you alone, Beg ask order me, Mah Chuchak says nobody can say that you don’t have eyes, Beg says it is said that after losing eyes, you get other strong senses, this Palace is my house, and I know each and everything, she says you wanted to tell me something about Agra, he says yes, our informer has sent letter that it’s time for war, she says very well, I was waiting for this, he did her work, now it’s my time.
Flashback shows that Shehnaz was in Mah Chuchak’s Palace, she says I am sure my Mom is in Jalal’s prison, I will find her, then I need your help, Mah Chuchak says you are Chand begum’s daughter and she was very close to me, I will do whatever I can do for you, Shehnaz says can you go against Jalal, as Kabul is also a state of Jalal? Mah Chuchak shouts Nigar??? And says remember one thing, that in Kabul, there is only my orders that are followed and you have doubt about it?? Shehnaz says If I had doubt, then I wouldn’t have come here.
Mah Chuchak says good, you go and find your mother, at the right time, I will help you, FB ends.
Mah Chuchak says I am helping her to get what I want, the shoulder will be hers, but I wil hunt, she thinks true, that Jalal doesn’t deserve the throne but the Queen will not be her but me!
Atgah tells Jalal that Maan Singh has full control in state where he was sent, Mirza sees Jodha and Rahim gossiping in the garden and Jalal just looking there not listening to Atgah, he says Jalal can I talk to you alone? Mirza says should I call Jodha here? Jalal ask why? Jalal ask why you sent everyone out? Mirza says as you were just looking at her, Jalal says nothing like that, Mirza says I can see it in your eyes that you love Jodha a lot, Jalal says true, there was a time when I had no heart, but suddenly, I realized I have a heart and it loves Jodha, MY HEART AND LOVE is indebted to Jodha. Mirza says you became a Poer, I should tell this to Jodha, he goes, Jalal runs behind him.
Mirza comes to Jodha and greets her, Jodha says you came to meet me after such a long time, Mirza says you can moan to Jalal about it. Jalal comes there and thinks that Mirza told her everything, he says it was not my fault Jodha, Jodha says it was your fault, Jalal says I just said to him that I love you a lot, Jodha blushes, Mirza says I should leave now, Jalal says you should have left a long time ago, Mirza leaves smiling.
Jalal says to Jodha I am sorry on Mirza’s behalf, he was just joking, Jodha says no need, I didn’t feel bad about it, Jalal says Mirza is not my real brother, but he loves me more than a real brother would have, Jodha ask what you mean? Jalal tells her that MIRZA is the Son of MAH CHUCHAK who is in Kabul.
Mah Chuchak says to Beg that what I want will happen now, I will pull the throne from Jalal, that he will not get what has happened to him! Beg drags someone listening to their conversation and says he is sent by the enemies to listen tp our conversations, Mah Chuchak puts sword on her neck and says you got her, so decide her fate, she leaves. Beg kills the listener by strangling her.
Maham is going through the Jungle, she sees a scarf tied to a tree and says some lady was following me and made some marks for her way back to my secret place, does she know about Chand begum?
Shehnaz thinks that I am sorry Mom, I couldn’t meet you, but I have made marks in the Jungle to your way and I will soon get you!
Ruqaiya comes to Jalal and congratulates him for getting the name of AKBAR, she says what should I call you from now on? Jalal recalls how Jodha wrote AKBAR on a paper and how he made her say it, Jalal says I think I should get used to this name, Ruqaiya says I will feel proud calling this name, she sees paper on which Jodha wrote AKBAR, she says it’s beautiful, must be some common man gifted you. Jalal says no, Jodha wrote it for me. Ruqaiya Oh! Jalal says it’s not about just the writing, but about the feelings because of which she wrote it, and so coated this paper with gold so it will be preserved. Ruqaiya says good, I have some work I will leave, she looks at Jalal who keeps looking at the paper and says Jodha wrote 2 words for you and it became so important for you.
Shehnaz is going somewhere, Maham sees her and says what is this mad girl doing here? What is she up to, she follows Shehnaz, Shehnaz comes into the Jungle and tries to trace the marks which she placed on trees, she sees them missing, Maham is looking at her hiding behind the tree. Shehnaz says where did my scarf mark go from here?
Jalal calls the family and says I thought it’s been a while since last Meena Bazar (market stall), Hamida says what have you thought about this Meena bazar? Jalal says I have thought of something different, this time, only my special wives, Salima, Ruqaiya and Jodha will put stalls and will gift me something that is related to my new name AKBAR. Ruqaiya says good idea, but this time, we should be given time unlike the previous one to think of new things for this Meena Bazar.
Shahnaz thinks who has removed the marks? Did he come to know that I know about that place? Maham thinks that I was right, she is not mad, she is just pretending, why does she want to go there? Shehnaz thinks that whoever has removed those marks must have come to the realisation that I am not mad, I am in danger. Maham thinks why does Shehnaz wants to go to my secret place, as she came with Jodha? So this means that Jodha knows about my secret place and sent Shehnaz to go there. Does she know about Chand begum or she knows that there is some secret place there? I have to find out whether Shehnaz is with Jodha or not.
Some Servant comes to Shehnaz and says Maham has called her, Shehnaz is confused and goes to her. She comes to Maham and pretends like she’s mad, she says are we going somewhere? Maham says you do good drama, Shehnaz says yes, I am good at doing drama acting, Maham looks at her and says I used to think that when you have a good face, then why the need to do the acting of somw mad girl? Shehnaz says I am not liking here, I am going to Jodha.
Maham holds her and says shut up! Enough of your drama, now bring your real face to me, I want to know why you are doing this drama of being totally mad, I know you will not open your mouth easily, but when Jalal will ask this question from you, then what will you say?? Shehnaz says why will I say anything to him, what wrong have I done? Maham says let’s go to Jalal now! Shehnaz in sane tone says I know you will not take me to Jalal, Maham smirks and looks at her.
Maham says to Shehnaz that wow, you accepted that you are not mad, now tell me for what reason you came here? Shehnaz says why are you behind me? She says you go out of the Palace at night, so I have to find out where you go being the Chief Minister, so tell me. Shehnaz says I came to find my Mother, Jalal has put her in prison and I know where, Maham thinks that this means she is Chand’s daughter Nigar, her relatives are alive and they think Jalal is the culprit, wow!
Maham asks why Jalal will kidnap your Mother? Shehnaz says it’s the truth, Maham makes her sit and ask who is your mother? Shehnaz says I am the daughter of Chand begun and I am not lying, Jalal has indeed put her in prison, she is in a very bad state, Maham thinks that this means she has met her, she ask where is Chand? Shehnaz tells her that there is a secret place in the Jungle, I went there and marked the way there, but it was removed. Maham says why will Jalal kidnap her? What’s his enmity with her?
Shehnaz says that Chand begum is Humayun’s’s wife and I am her daughter Nigar, Humayun gave a letter to Chand citing that I am the owner of the throne, and my Mother also knows the way to the treasure, Maham starts acting and says I am just a Servant, please forgive me, Shehnaz says you will not help me, as you are half mother to Jalal, Maham says Jalal has forgotten everything, and if Humayun wanted you to be the Queen of the throne, then I will help you in achieving it, Shehnaz gets happy and thanks her, Maham thinks in mind, that my fate is good, now I will get the treasure for sure!
All the wives are sad that they will not participate in Meena bazar, Ruqaiya comes there and ask them what happened? They say that this is their only chance to converse with Jalal and now, it is also snatched from them. Ruqaiya says don’t be sad, I promise that I will take all your help in choosing a gift for Jalal, you all will come to Bazar. One wife says that Ruqaiya will emerge winner for sure, another says Jodha is no less, she always comes with new ideas. Ruqaiya says if you want to talk about Jodha, then go to her!! She fumes out of the room.
Jodha isn’t so happy, she says to Moti that Jalal has said there will Meena bazar now, Shehnaz comes and says wow, we are going to bazar (market)? Moti says no, every year Meena bazar is set in only the Palace, Shehnaz says wow, this means all wives will put stalls, we will enjoy it. Jodha says no, this time, Jalal wants that only his 3 special wives to put up the stall, I am thinking that all wives must be feeling bad, as they wait for Meena bazar every year, Moti agrees.
Jodha says I should talk to Jalal regarding this, Shehnaz says why didn’t you speak with him when he talked about Meena bazar? Jodha says there were Salima, Ruqaiya and Hamida there, and they would have felt bad if I interfered, but now, I will talk to him alone.
Jalal is lying on bed, a soldier comes and tells him that Jodha has come, Jalal says send her in, Jodha comes and greets him, she justs look at him, Jalal says you came at this time just to greet me? I was sleeping, Jodha says I came after asking the soldier, Jalal says the soldier told me that you have some important work, Jodha says nothing that important, Jalal says so you were finding a reason to come to me? Jodha says nothing like that, you are my husband, I don’t have a reason to come to you, Jalal says then why don’t you spend time with me these days, you don’t like me anymore? Jodha says I really like to be with you, but you are a King, I can’t disturb you all the time, you have to take time out for politics, management, people, family and the Harem.
Jalal says in all these, I don’t find it hard to spend time with the one with whom I can spend my whole life, you know I have announced this Meena bazar only to spend time with my Wife, Jodha says I know, Jodha says it’s not good with other wives, as they wait a whole year just to give you gifts, just to talk to you, Jalal says yes, and that’s why I have announced Meena bazar so they don’t think that I ignore them. Jalal says as you said that I have to fulfill all my duties, but I don’t have the right to fulfill my wishes, Jodha says you have, Jalal says then stay with me tonight, Jodha says no, I have to prepare for Meena bazar, Jalal stops her, Jodha says you are stubborn and clever, Jalal says thanks, but when Wife is like this, then husband have to be clever, Jodha says I have to go, she leaves, Jalal smiles.
Beg says to Mah Chuchak that you seem worried? She says you can’t see, but feel everything, Mah Chuchak says I am tired rulling just Kabul, I want to rule Hindustan, I want to ruin Jalal now! Beg says who stopped you? She says Ghani Khan, your nephew and Munim Khan’s Son, he is the representative of Jalal here, he is loyal to Jalal. Beg says leave Ghani to me and think about the force against Jalal, she says from where will I arrange force against Jalal? Beg smiles, she says so you have found the way out, tell me, he says Haider Qasim, he has forces, she says why will he fight against Jalal? He says because you will be with him, you will be his support and he will yours, she says what about his loyalty to us? He says relations gives loyalty, Nikah, one marriage will write his loyalty to you, history witnessed that relations are made for politics.
Mah Chuchak daughter comes calling her Mother, Mah Chuchak says give one relation and get the throne, not a bad idea, she scolds her daughter that she came late, she says use your beauty and win one King, her daughter says no I can’t, Mah Chuchak throws her daughter on the floor, Beg says let her go, we have some other work, I have to send letter about the relation too, Mah Chuchak smirks.
All the wives are with Ruqaiya, Ruqaiya says that don’t worry, you all will be given something along with the gift for Jalal, one wife suggests that we should give him a throne which has gold and diamonds on it, Ruqaiya says good idea, but I have thought of something else this time, they ask what we will get in it? Ruqaiya says don’t talk much, she says I need your help, she shows them swords and says I will give one sword to him, they say why? Ruqaiya says what’s better than the sword for a warrior, other wife says what kind of gift is like this? Ruqaiya says have patience, it has something special.
Jodha is tensed, Moti ask her to calm down and thinks what will you give to Jalal? Jodha says I don’t know what to give him, Zakira says it is difficult, but you have to decide as only one day is left, Jodha thinks.
Salima is with Hamida and Jiji Anga, Jiji ask have you decided what you will give to Jalal? Salima says not yet, it’s not difficult to decide about the gift but it’s about the most special gift and I have to think what to say while giving the gift, Hamida says we can’t doubt your intelligence, I know you will give the best gift, Salima says it’s not about the best gift, I just want to give what Jalal likes and I want Jodha to win, I will gift Jalal as a friend not because he is a King.
Moti says why are you worried? You always give him the best gift and this time, you win too, Moti says give something which shows love and Jalal gets drown in love, Jodha says don’t tease me at this time, Zakira says whatever you give, he will like it, Jodha says no, Jalal is not lenient while deciding winner and also not the gift but the feeling behind the gift matters to him most, Moti says wow, you also know what he thinks? Jodha says yes, I have spent one year with him so I know. Jodha says I want something that is related to the title given by people, Moti says good idea, you give him dress with gold, Jodha says no, Zakira says give him golden shoes, Jodha says no, Shehnaz says what better gift than a royal turban for a King? Moti says no.
Jodha thinks and says I should make some crown which gives the message that 2 relgions are united, this is a good idea, thanks Shehnaz, she says to Zakira let’s start the work. Shehnaz smirks and says this crown will destroy you!!
Jodha is making turban with the help of Zakira, Jodha says you know a lot Zakira, Zakira says I spent my life in many Palaces, Jodha asks so tell which stone is most praised in the Mughal Saltanate? Zakira says Maanak stone, this stone is good for turban. Shehnaz comes running and ask them to hide everything, she hides everything under the turban.
Jalal comes there, Jodha and all behave weirdly, Jalal ask what is happening here? Jodha says nothing, Jalal ask Moti, she stays silent, he then ask Shehnaz, she says Jodha is angry with you, Jalal ask why? Jalal says I have to say one thing that your Servants are loyal to you Jodha, they are not telling anything even to the King, he ask Zakira what’s happening? She says you should ask Jodha, how can we answer you? Jalal says so you all will not tell me? Jodha says you are wasting time here, nobody will tell you what I’m giving you as gift so you have to see it in bazar only, he says all go out, Jodha says nobody will go, I know he is sending you all out so he can find out about his gift, Jalal says if it’s my order then…? All the Servants leave.
Jalal says to Jodha that where are you hiding my gift? Jodha says there is nothing here, Jalal says what? You haven’t made anything for Meena bazar? Jodha says there is nothing to be given, why should I work for gifting you? Jalal is miffed and says okay, meet you in bazar, Jodha says don’t be angry, wait till bazar. Jalal says I just wanted to tell you that your one mannak stone is lying on the floor, Jodha says it’s cheating, you shouldn’t have seen it, Jalal says hiding it was your work, well meet you there, I want to see what you give me, he leaves. Jodha angrily looks at the stone.
Some people are going to Mah Chuchak’s Palace, they ask Beg why there is darkness here? He says because Mah Chuchak likes the Palace this way and I like it too, darkness can protect you from the enemy and you can do anything in darkness, one boy says why am I here? His Minister says that we have to talk to Mah Chuchak, they come to Mah Chuchak, thr boy is introduced as Haider Qasim.
Mah Chuchak says good that all are here, she says to Haider that know one thing about me that I believe in winning, I got to know you are in problem, Haider’s Minister says yes, there is a problem, our state is being attacked by many forces, they don’t give us time to prepare, our many soldiers are dead, Mah Chuchak says when the enemy is strong then friends should join hands to fight with them, I will help you but why should I? I can help you when I have some reason, she says do one deal of peace, love, loyalty and says for this, there should be marriage between your family and us, this will give me a reason to attack on your enemies, so relations accepted? Haider nods, the Minister says we accept it, Mah Chuchak smirks.
Mah Chuchak says to her daughters that come forward and welcome your would be father, all are stunned. She says to her children why are you standing? They greet him.
Mah Chuchak recalls Beg’s words that to keep power intact, you should marry Haider Qasim, when you will marry him, his force will be in your hands, you can then hunt for throne and Jalal had not given you anything. FB ends.
Haider says the relation was for someone else, Mah Chuchak says remember one thing, do you want your force to extend or not and if you say no to me, then it will be bad for you, she says I should not talk to you like this, as we are going to be relatives, she ask Beg to take them to the room, Beg congratulates everyone.
