yes I think it doesnt matter what century you are in, forced marriage has always been looked down at... yes in this century and in the 20th century people have ended their lives rather than be disgraced and violated (ex: Partition)

Even Draupadi raised her voice against Karna because she didnt want to marry him eventhough he technically could have won the swayamvar; because in the real sense it is the girl who chooses her groom not the other way around!👏

raising your voice against forced marriage is worth appreciation.
Suiciding isn't .Period.

akbar was a cunning king who knew how to expand his empire. He started marriage alliance to collaborate with other territories. And jodha was one of the victim of akbar's tactics. Akbar was shrewd enough not to start war, he tried to strengthen his empire peacefully. You should read some history stuff it clearly mentions his strategies. And about jodha, even jahagir mentioned her as "i was born to my father's wife" he even didn't call jodha his mother. And in ain-e-akbari, akbar mentioned his immense love for ruqaiya.. He even felt guilt of having multiple wives, he wished he never married anyone else other than ruqaiya

we are talking of present. But if suppose raising voice was bravery then why didn't jodha escape away from that marriage?

ok ..so according to you akbar never fought a war...
also,
lets assume jodha suicided,
then what? akbar would have married her younger sister for expansion of his territory. Then according to your logic,even she should have suicided..seriously ..

no akbar did fight. He fought war with the ones who never bowed down to him, like maharana pratap. Akbar tried very hard to control him and make him bow down but the brave pratap never did so akbar attacked his reign. I'm not saying it would have been bravery in committing suicide but it was definately coward side of hers to surrender herself

lol ok marrying was for saving life of soldiers? And producing kids was for? It would be illogical to say that she married to save life of soldiers, when braves on border of india sacrifice their lives for motherland they don't try another things to escape it. A life given for the sake of motherland is called bravery. And about jodha? She was a weak person who couldn't even win over her emotions and accepted akbar. A lady who couldn't even save herself, how could she even think to save soldiers?
