Jodha
Akbar
December
17th
episode:
When
Akbar
and
Jodha
argue
over
the
issue
of
Salim,
a
maid
tells
them
to
promptly
go
to
the
scale
of
justice
and
see
what
Salim
has
done!
They
become
shocked
to
find
that
Salim
has
set
the
scale
on
fire.
Jodha
and
Hamida
fear
a
disastrous
impact
of
the
incident.
Everyone
waits
in
the
court
for
Akbar’s
judgment.
Akbar
declares
that
Salim
will
be
sent
to
the
warfront
with
Khan-e-Khana
Rahim
and
Raja
Man
Singh.
He
will
be
trained
for
war.
Akbar
adds
that
Salim
will
be
treated
like
a
common
boy
and
will
get
no
advantage
of
being
a
prince.
Jodha
stands
up
for
protest.
Akbar
says
that
he
will
not
change
his
decision.
Rukaiya
comes
to
her
room
and
celebrates
her
victory.
She
remembers
how
she
added
alcohol
to
the
pot
of
drink
that
was
ordered
by
Haider
to
a
maid
servant.
She
knew
that
Salim
will
take
the
drink
with
other
children.
She
wanted
Salim
to
become
drunk
and
lose
control
over
his
behaviour.
She
thinks
that
her
revenge
upon
Jodha
is
complete.
Jodha
comes
to
Akbar
and
complains
that
his
behavior
is
inhuman.
He
pays
no
heed
to
her.
At
last
she
helplessly
requests
him
to
change
his
decision
and
not
to
detach
her
from
Salim.
He
says
that
Salim
should
grow
up
as
a
responsible
human
being,
not
a
spoilt
child.
Soon
they
are
informed
that
Salim
has
got
ready
in
his
armour
to
go
to
the
warfront.
Akbar
gives
him
formal
farewell
and
stops
Jodha
from
going
close
to
him.
Jodha
is
completely
shattered.
