Jodhaa Akbar Page #3

Sharifuddin Hussain!

What will I get in return?

What do you want?

To invade Delhi!

Invade... Delhi?

Once you have your share of Amer,

you will have to help me...

...to invade Delhi.

But are you not

the Emperor's brother-in-law?

Yes, I did marry Bakshi Banu Begum,

Jalaluddin's sister.

Due to that alliance, I was appointed,

the Governor of Ajmer, Nagor and Mewat.

Let me tell you something Sujamal.

Water and ambition have one thing

in common - they are ever-swelling.

Now I want all of Hindustan!

Very well. I will help you.

But no blood must be shed

in my accession.

What we dreaded has happened!

Sujamal has asked Sharifuddin

for help to annex my throne.

If a war is waged,

our kingdom will be ruined.

Thousands of women will be widowed.

Children orphaned.

The very thought makes me tremble.

It does not make any sense to let

innocent people get slaughtered.

Chandrabhanji...

...wouldn't it be wise to make peace

with the Mughals...

...and offer Jalaluddin

a hand of friendship?

- Do that and be branded a traitor!

- An alliance with the Mughals?

No greater example of treason.

You'll surely be regarded a traitor.

It pains me too.

But let me tell you...

...I will be saving my people from

defeat, death and disaster...

...by accepting the Mughal treaty!

Very well, King Bharmal...

...let me warn you and

the people of Amer...

...because of your decision...

...no alliances will take place

between our families...

...for present and future generations!

- Not only Ajabgarh!

All of Rajputana will cut ties with you!

Rajaji, welcome to Sanganer!

His Majesty has seen

Chandrabhanji's message.

He will meet you here,

in the elephant arena.

- Where is His Majesty?

- His Majesty? Right there.

Taming wild elephants and horses

is the Emperor's favourite pastime.

This is no longer a sport!

Your Majesty,

King Bharmal of Amer...

...Head of the Kachhaawaas -

a great Rajput dynasty, awaits you.

Welcome!

Greetings, Your Majesty!

We praise your courage.

A truly amazing feat!

I invite you to my royal tent.

I will be pleased

to welcome you there, Rajaji.

As you wish!

On your guard!

The Crown of the Mughals...

...the Emperor of Hindustan...

...Jalaluddin Mohammad approaches!

Welcome. I am honoured

you have traveled so far to see me.

May I know the purpose of this visit?

I wish to include the kingdom of Amer

under Mughal sovereignty.

I am pleased and proud to hear

you are entrusting Amer to us.

I wish to discuss... one more matter...

Please go ahead.

In private...

Disperse!

Pray speak.

You must accept the hand...

of my daughter, Princess Jodhaa!

And this will be a marriage of

alliance between the Mughals and Amer.
