Update:
In
the
Mughal
Darwar,
Emperor
Akbar
gives
a
lot
of
attention
and
importance
to
Benazeer,
to
avenge
his
insult
by
Jodha
Begum.
As
he
offers
the
same
status
and
respect
of
a
begum,
to
a
woman
of
an
inferior
level,
his
mother
criticizes
the
act,
though
it
becomes
of
no
result.
Mahamanga
repeats
the
incidents
of
Darwar
to
Begum
Rukhaiya,
who
shows
little
interest
about
it
and
pays
no
heed
to
the
shrewd
lady.
Jodha
comes
to
Jalal
to
return
the
bangle,
which
she
received
as
a
gift
from
him.
Benazeer
comes
and
Jalal
deliberately
praises
her
and
gives
her
the
bangle,
returned
by
Jodha,
as
a
gift.
The
insulted
Begum
leaves
the
place.
Benazeer,
the
woman
who
has
mastered
the
craft
of
hypnotizing
men,
notices
that
Jalal
gives
her
attention,
to
draw
the
attention
of
Jodha
Begum.
The
fact
strikes
her
and
she
keeps
thinking
over
it.
The
actor
playing
the
role
of
Benazeer,
successfully
reflects
a
seductress.
A
wounded
Jodha
cries
in
her
chamber.
During
the
Puja
of
Goddess
Jagadamba,
Jodha's
song
enchants
the
Sangeetacharya.
He
joins
her
and
admires
her
voice.
Jodha
feels
fortunate
being
blessed
by
him.
The
well
written
dialogues
between
the
two
are
especially
remarkable.
Akbar
arranges
a
sword
training
for
Benazeer.
He
deliberately
instructs
Benazeer
to
come
in
the
attire,
that
Begum
Jodha
wears
in
time
of
Talwar
practice.
Begum
Jodha
notices
this
when
she
returns
from
Puja
and
naturally
leaves
the
place
with
utter
disgust.
It
becomes
an
extreme
level
of
insult
for
her.
Again
Benazeer
is
troubled
by
the
fact
that
Akbar
notices
Jodha,
not
her.
It
hurts
the
pride
of
a
seductress,
who
repeats
it
again
and
again,
that
her
body
is
sharper
than
a
sword!
