Nice post Rati.
I read your updates as i miss the episodes normally.
Digging up this old post. :)
Interesting discussion on Haldighati War. I too agree, it was not about religion.
It was about pride, politics, economy, and one's belief and ideals.
Akbar wanted supremacy and Pratap wanted just ONE thing - HIS Freedom. :)
He sent 3-4 embassies also to Pratap so that he may befriend him, but that was not successful.
Hence, the clash. :)
