Actually what is shown in serial is wrong. They show that jalal worships mahamanga and has no relation with hamida. But in reality akbar loved his mother very much and consulted her on many things. Yes till 20 years of age he was blindly following Bairam Khan and Mahamanga but he became indepent and then consulted hamida, gulbadan, ruqaiah and salima on political matters apart from his navratnas. Ruqaiah was incharge of harem, salima incharge of court affairs when he travelled, hamida and gulbadan incharge of building orphanages, traveller houses, gardens and religious places, jodha handled spices business to europe and Americas etc. They all had specific roles not just princesses who wasted time in petty quarrels in harem like shown in serial. If anyone reads akbarnama and jehangirnama you can get all details of everyones roles.

Another thing wrongly shown in serial that mughal princesses never went out of harem or rarely. Yes Akbar had wanted his mother, sister, daughters etc to not go out as he felt it was unsafe and he wanted them all comforts and safety but they were against it and he had to allow them to travel alone/groups to places of worship, gardens or markets or even other places etc. It mentions in the books that mughal princess(sisters, daughter, empress) could own palaces outside agra/delhi forts where they lived on their own.

Ekta Kapoor said so & on SBS. Even read it in an interview of Rajat's.😊

Jalal is 22 or so currently on the show. And I think that's what they're showing for Jodha too

Rajat is that age though he looks his age & older at the same time even though he has a very innocent face 😕 . But Paridhi as a 21-22 year old is very funny😛,she comfortably looks 25-26 & she's 28 in reality!

Salima & Rajat together look like a joke😆, she looks so much older to him. But then if Bairam Khan was 45-50 which I reckon is what they showed on the show & as per history Salima was 20years younger to him. That means 30-35 which the actress playing Salima looks to be. So good casting. But I applaud Rajat because hen is just completely convincing as a young Emperor & he over-powers even someone nearly 20 years older to him, effortlessly!!
