I read that Sharifuddin was odered to be trampled under elephant on orders of Akbar.
Is this true? did he die or did akbar forgive him in last minute?
The real Akbar never actually hosted The Apprentice. He sentenced Sharifuddin to be placed under the feet of an elephant. This was not supposed to kill him, only freak him out.
Does anyone have idea how sharifuddin died?
Paradox: Name sharifuddin and work all indecent
Bakshi bano step sister of Akbar was a widow(may be thats why he banned child marriage and helped widow get remarriaged?) and Akbar married her to sharifuddin after he became emperor. Bakshi Bano was 3 years elder to him and was taken as hostage with him by her uncles in Kabul. Some say that she was also tied along with Akbar to the kabul fort during bombings. Not sure as no one can verify what really happened? But she was definetly rescued by Hindal Mirza -Ruqaiah's father with Maham anga, Akbar and Adham Khan and safely returned to Humayun.
What a choice for brother-in-law? Poor bano had to bear brunt of her brother's wrong decision all life. May be that is why Akabr feeling guilty and not taking action on Sharifuddin.
Akbar was a great King but in initial years he did lots of mistakes. Like treating maham anga like Godly status and allowing her interference in administration, keeping quiet at adham's transgressions, thinking sharifuddin will be a great husband for his widowed sister, trusting bairam khan completely and allowing him to rule extra constitutionally. Also him marrying so many wives lead to family chaos.

Bakshi Banu Begum was born in September of 1540 in Lahore to Gunwar Bibi, in the year of the Timurid exodus from India. She fell into the hands of her uncle, Askari Mirza, with her father's camp along with her half-brother, the baby Akbar in 1543.[2] In the depth of the winter of 1545, she was sent with Akbar from Qandahar to Kabul by the orders of her uncle, Askari Mirza, while being accompanied by their attendants and foster mothers.

In 1550, at the age of ten, she was betrothed by her father to Ibrahim Mirza, the eldest son of Sulaiman Shah Mirza, the Governor of Badakshan and his wife Haram Begum. Ibrahim was also a descendant of Alexander the Great through his mother's side. He was six years older than Bakshi, and was killed in 1560, leaving the princess a widow at the age of twenty. In the same year, Bakshi was given in marriage to Mirza Sharaf-ud-din Husain Ahrari, the Viceroy of Ajmer and Nagur, by her younger brother, the Emperor Akbar.[3]
