Jodha
Akbar
November
18th
episode:
Rahim
keeps
watch
on
Salim
when
little
Salim
is
collecting
firewood
inside
the
forest.
Soon
Rahim
discovers
Akbar
behind
him.
Akbar
explains
that
a
father
could
not
prevent
himself
from
seeing
his
son.
Salim
collects
a
little
amount
of
firewood
and
thinks
it
would
not
be
enough
for
fuel.
Suddenly
he
hears
some
people
discussing
about
an
event
where
food
and
clothes
will
be
distributed
in
front
of
the
temple.
He
thinks
he
should
go
there
and
collect
some
food
for
Fatima
Bi
and
himself.
Salim
joins
the
crowd
of
needy
people,
to
collect
food
and
clothes.
He
stretches
his
little
hands
and
sees
that
the
distributor
is
none
other
than
Jodha.
Jodha
sees
that
his
little
hands
are
wounded
by
thorns.
She
nurses
his
hands
and
gives
him
food.
He
takes
the
food
and
a
blanket
with
a
stoic
expression
because
he
thinks
that
Jodha
does
not
care
for
him.
But
Jodha
cannot
stop
herself
from
following
Salim
secretly.
Salim
lifts
the
burden
of
firewood
on
one
hand
and
takes
the
food
and
blanket
on
another.
He
walks
up
to
the
hut
of
Fatima
Bi.
He
gives
her
the
food.
Jodha
goes
to
the
hut
and
secretly
watches
how
Salim
is
being
responsible
towards
a
poor
woman.
Jodha
tells
Akbar
that
she
violated
his
order
and
went
to
see
Salim.
Akbar
confesses
that
he
has
violated
his
order
too,
being
a
father.
Jodha
says
that
Salim’s
condition
pained
her,
but
at
the
very
same
time
she
is
happy
to
see
the
development
of
his
humanity.
She
appreciates
Akbar’s
decision.
He
wishes
for
Kader's
fast
recovery
and
Salim's
return
to
the
palace.
Akbar
keeps
watch
on
Salim’s
security.
He
takes
an
equal
share
of
punishment
with
his
son.
On
the
other
hand,
Kader
shows
little
sign
of
recovery.
