Seasons & episodes

Jalal orders the Ratanpur Fort to be handed over to Dhabalgarh to ensure Sukanya's wedding. However, the Mughals capture the Fort as soon as the wedding concludes.

Jalal gives the Ratanpur Fort as a gift to Sukanya and heads back to Agra. However, Jodha falls sick, and Khwaja Shera informs Jalal of the only way to cure her.

Jodha regains her senses the next morning and learns that Jalal had made love to her the previous night. As they return to Agra, the 'Mawlawis' block Jalal's way to the palace.

Jodha is prevented from converting to Islam as a letter from Salim Chisti Sahab reaches Jalal's court. Later, Jalal informs Jodha that he had not made love to her but had merely covered her up with a black cloth to keep her warm.

Jodha prepares food for Jalal, which they eat sharing the same plate. On the other hand, Sharifuddin instigates the 'Maulawis' against Jalal so that he benefits from their rebellion. Ruqaiya waits for Jalal while the latter spends time with Jodha.

Sharifuddin crosses Jodha's path and tries to humiliate her. However, Jodha reveals that she knows that he is plotting with Adham against Jalal. Later, Jalal summons the 'Maulawis' at Diwan-e-Khas and teaches them a lesson.

Ruqaiya insults Jodha, but she replies curtly. Jalal is informed about an impending attack on Agra which will be led by his stepbrother-in-law, Abul Mali. Jalal decides to destroy him before the attack. Later, Jalal learns about Jodha's birthday from Rahim.

Jodha wakes up to a room full of Mughal ladies, who wish her on her birthday. Though extremely glad, Jodha misses her home as she receives letters from her family. Jodha's birthday is celebrated with grandeur, leaving Ruqaiya upset, but Jalal reassures her.

The 'hakim' claims that Jodha is pregnant. She feels violated by Jalal, while on the other hand, he suspects Jodha's integrity. Adham nags Anga and she advises him to be patient. Later, Ruqaiya lashes out at Jalal for consummating his marriage with Jodha.

Jalal is distraught with the thought of betrayal and unwillingly injures his soldiers while practicing swordsmanship. He also metes out severe punishment to a woman accused of adultery. Anga requests Jalal to meet men, who have arrived to bless his son.

Tension builds between Jodha and Jalal as the two accuse each other. Anga calls the hakim to be certain about Jodha's pregnancy. Jodha confides in Moti Bai, as she is offended by the accusation of adultery. Salima senses someone hiding in the kitchen.

Anga sends Resham to spread rumors about Jodha's adultery. Jalal summons Salima, who assures him that Jodha is innocent. Salima also says that the hakim might have committed a mistake. Hamida tells off Jodha for her disloyalty.

Jalal meets the 'hakim', who gives Jalal a medicine and says that if the consumption of the medicine induces nausea, Jodha’s pregnancy will be deemed negative. Salima medicates Jodha as Jalal waits for the results impatiently.

Jodha vomits, proving that she is not pregnant. Thereafter, the hakim warns Salima that whoever tried soiling Jodha's reputation might even try to tamper with her food. Later, a burqa-clad woman snatches medicine from the hakim and he is pursued by two killers.

Salima informs Jalal about the 'hakim's murder. They reach his workplace and find the letter he left for him and discover among other clues that the culprit is a burqa-clad woman. Jalal decides to trace the culprit amidst the festivities for his unborn heir.

As Jalal sets out to catch the culprit, Salima suspiciously gestures towards an attendant. The attendant leads them to Bakshi. On confronting Bakshi, she reveals that Sharifuddin forced her to do so. Jalal brings Bakshi to Jodha to confess to her misdeeds.

Bakshi seeks Jodha's forgiveness. Hamida slaps Bakshi and admonishes her for betraying Jalal. As Jodha apologizes to Jalal, he admits that he trusts her. Jodha talks to Salima about Bakshi, as Jalal orders them to be present at the Diwan-e-Khas.

Jalal asks Jodha to punish Bakshi, but Jodha forgives Bakshi. On being questioned Jodha tells Jalal that Bakshi was being used by Sharifuddin. Jalal informs the people that they would have to wait longer for the Sultanate's heir.

On being asked about loving Jalal, Ruqaiya fails to answer. Anga learns that Adham gave a necklace to a young maid. Hamida denies Bakshi from joining Jalal's birthday celebration. Later, Sharifuddin confides in a guard that he wanted Jodha as his wife.

Jalal refuses to accept Bakshi's gifts. Ruqaiya asks Jalal to solve some puzzles for his gift. When Jalal meets Rahim, who has the final clue to the gift, Rahim leads him to a Tulsi plant instead of a Neem tree leading Jalal to Jodha.

Jodha takes Jalal around his kingdom and makes him listen to the villagers' hitches. Jalal promises to dig a well to manage the water crisis. Ruqaiya asks Rahim if he asked Jalal to wait by the Neem tree. Jalal finds Ruqaiya's gift and is impressed by it.

Jalal realizes the importance of the villagers' good wishes and claims that Jodha's gift is superior to Ruqaiya's. Ruqaiya becomes furious at this and smashes a mirror. Jalal reassures Ruqaiya by stating that she will always remain irreplaceable.

Adham has an evil eye on Tasnim. Jodha spots Adham touching Tasnim inappropriately and talks to Tasnim's mother but in vain. Jalal appoints subedars to different provinces in the absence of Anga and Adham. Resham informs this to Anga and she takes offense.

Jodha complains to Jalal about Adham's impertinence. Jodha reminds Jalal that a woman's dignity must be protected. Adham announces at the Diwan-e-Khas his desire to marry Tasnim. Jalal faces a dilemma while delivering his verdict.
