As far as i remember, personally Akbar fought in Gujarat War(1572-73) and in Battle of Paronkh(1562). :)

During Panipat war he was 13.
He did not fight, just it is "said" he slashed Hemu's head, though historians dispute this.

In Chittor, he did not fight.
He went there to manage and make strategies for the force.

Even when he went to some wars, personally he did not fight.
Because Mostly his generals fought for him.

But he is mentioned as a very strong man in history, and very ably built, though short in height.
So, i think showing his fight was ok. :)

I am not comparing Pratap with Akbar.
In physical prowess Pratap is not behind anyone. Class apart.
He led his battles from front personally, just like what Rana Sanga used to do. :)
