Yes, it was so...

I can't stop myself from adding more. ;-P
So i am also adding to this info.

Out of these 11 days, 9 days were spent in Rajputana, and on 11th day Akbar reached Gujarat. He traveled via camels, carts and horses.

About Golden Temple..This post had a fascinating discussion. :)

The more I read about jalal the more his image is broken in my eyes. .i was never crazy about him. ..but some how when you see the real king putting that great image aside then serial's jalal is much better. .and also better looking

Please share whatever you all read. I like reading / knowing more :)

Lasyap this information has been given by Abhay previously but I wanted to tell that not just old historian but modern day historians too state it. .

I am feeling very nostalgic about older times when we all used to discuss JA. .now we all are quite and maybe one will drift apart. .

Abhay Vincent smith paints HB's picture as a devout muslim and anti other religions especially christians..
