Small
screen
actor
Rajat
Tokas,
who
plays
the
male
lead
in
"Jodha
Akbar",
says
he
is
soft
spoken
in
real
life
but
did
not
face
any
problem
playing
the
"authoritative" character.
"Akbar
was
very
authoritative
and
bold
and
in
reality,
I
am
very
soft
spoken.
But
Akbar
had
the
help
of
his
ministers
and
even
I
get
that
help
during
the
shoot
when
I
am
playing
Akbar's
charater
and
that
makes
it
easy
for
me
to
play
the
character," Rajat
told
reporters
at
the
launch
of
"Jodha
Akbar"
e-book
and
mobile
game
at
Karjat.
The
22-year
was
asked
what
attracts
him
to
the
role
of
the
Mughal
emperor.
To
that,
he
said:
"Akbar
was
well
aware
of
anything
and
everything.
He
had
everything
-
money,
fame
and
power.
"The
best
part
about
him
was
that
he
knew
how
to
use
the
power.
He
believed
in
planning
and
always
made
plans
in
advance.
I
like
that
about
him."
Rajat
launched
the
"Jodha
Akbar"
mobile
game,
while
Paridhi
Sharma,
seen
as
Jodha,
launched
the
show's
e-book
at
an
event
here.
Unfortunately,
Rajat
has
not
tried
his
hands
at
the
game
as
yet
and
won't
be
able
to
play
it
anytime
soon
either.
"I
haven't
played
the
game
yet
and
I
have
an
iPhone
so
I
won't
be
able
to
play
it
since
iOS
doesn't
have
the
mobile
game.
But
I
will
try
to
play
on
my
friends' Android
phones.
Once
it's
available
on
iOS,
I
will
download
it,"
he
said.
Usually
actors
are
dressed
as
their
characters
at
press
conferences,
but
Rajat
made
an
exception
due
to
an
injury
that
he
suffered
a
few
days
ago.
"I
got
an
injury
on
my
foot.
I
got
it
treated,
but
I
was
still
facing
a
lot
of
problems.
I
couldn't
wear
my
jooti
because
it
was
made
of
leather
and
it
hurted
me.
"I
had
to
go
to
Delhi
to
get
it
treated
properly.
It's
not
healed
properly,
and
that's
why
I
chose
to
wear
cushioned
sandals," Rajat
said.
