Hi Guys,
In this show they are showing that Akbar at a very small age is attaining maturity & giving advises to Bairam Khan how to go about capturing Rajputhana. Guys according to History when Humayun dies Akbar will be just a small boy of 11 or 12 years. As he was too small to take over the Mughal Empire so he was entrusted in the care of Magum Anga who will his care taker & Bairam Khan who will be his protector cum Mentor. Bairam Khan was Akbar's military instructer & Vazir of Mughal Empire & ruled in Akbar's behalf until Akbar attained Maturity. After Akbar grows up & sees how Bairam Khan ruthlessly commits atrocities on captured kingdoms by destroying temples & looting people, which is said Akbar dose int like he decides to relive Bairam Khan of his responsibilities & take over the Mughal Empire. Akbar in history is protayed to be India's first Muslim ruler to have Secular thoughts, he always respected all cast & religion. He never ordered looting of any area captured by Mughals.

In this show it is shown that as soon as Akbar listens about Pratap & his adventures he decides that Pratap is the only hurdle in his way to capture whole of Rajputana, & orders Bairam Khan to finish him. Where as in History it is said that Akbar sends at least Six peace missions to Pratap in his efforts to befriend Pratap. After Pratap rejects all peace missions & leaves no other option in front of Akbar but to go for war.

Akbar was never interested in administration till he was 17-18 and bairam khan was defacto ruler. Akbar spent majority of his time hunting and playing with his friends like adham khan. It was only when he was 19 years old he removed bairam khan from his post as his mentor and commander but he rebelled against mughal empire and was defeated and was brought in front of akbar. Akbar forgave him and gave him the post of PM again but bairam khan refused and said he wanted to go on haj and only then return to agra to help akbar. But he was killed on the way.
So i doubt till 20 years akbar even had much knowledge of the politics and various rajputhana states rulers.
And bairam khan was too busy expanding mughal empire and taking care of it to worry about bundi or any saka veer
