Jodha Bai has always been a debatable topic, who was she, how was she and from where did she belong to? Was she the mother of Jahangir? OR was she the wife of Jahangir? Why she is not mentioned in Akbarnama orJahangirnama? Even authors who have written novels focusing on the particular characters like Mehrunisa, Laadli , Jahanara etc have adopted a safe route not to give a name to Jahangir's mother and refer to as first heir born to Hindu Princess/ wife of Akbar.
