Guys,
As we all saw that Rana Udai Singh Places Hadda Surjan Singh on the throne of Bundi after defeating Surtan Singh.

According to History Surjan Singh fights Mughals & successfully defeats them. But after Mughals capture Chithod after US escapes with his family to Aravalli Hills. The Mughals attack Bundi again & this time too Surjan Singh gives stiff resistance but latter Surrenders to Akbar who gives him Mansabdari in Mughal army & gives Surjan Singh the tittle of Rao Raja.

Thanks for posting so true.

Siege of Ranthambore, on February 8, 1568, Akbar lead a massive Mughal Army composed of over 50,000 men and besieged Ranthambore Fort. Akbar had become emboldened after his victories at the Battle of Thanesar and the Siege of Chittorgarh and only Ranthambore Fort remained unconquered. Akbar believed that Ranthambore Fort was a major threat to Mughal Empire because it housed great Hada Rajputs who considered themselves sworn enemies of the Mughals.
Akbar had first besieged Ranthambore Fort in the year 1558, but decided instead to capture Gwalior, northern Rajputana and Jaunpur.

so with this current track is little close by only difference is pratap's age as he should be 18 happily married young father if its 1558

After successful Mughal victories around Rajputana and the fall of Akbar's most notorious enemies during the Siege of Chittorgarh, Akbar decided to capture Ranthambore Fort, which was considered the strongest fortress in Rajputana and widely believed to be impregnable.
The Rajputs in Ranthambore Fort were under the command of Rao Surjan Hada, of the Hada clan of Bundi.Ranthambore was the capital of Bundi state. Rao Surjan Hada was greatly demoralized by Akbar's victory during the Siege of Chittorgarh but however refused to surrender at first.

But now question is in 1567 did mugal came from jungal?

No friend the tow wars you are talking about happens only after Akbar & Pratap both cross 18 & Akbar assumes absolute power after dismissing his Regent, Guardian & General Bairam Khan from service.

As written in history Akbar first captures kingdoms around Mewad like Gwalior & Malwa. Akbar gets an golden opportunity to attack Mewad when Udai Singh gives shelter to Baz Bahadur the sultan of Malwa against the diktat of Akbar. Taking it as a pretext Akbar attacks Mewad but this time he will be guided by Shakti Singh who knows in & out of Cithod fort & ways to reach there easily.

Guys

Shakti Singh was the second son of Maharana Udai Singh, the ruler of Mewar by his second wife Rani Sajjabai Solankini. He was also the younger half-brother of Maharana Pratap.

Once in his childhood he cut his thumb to check the sharpness of a sword, seeing the brutality, his father Udai Singh consulted with his priest who said that Shakti singh would be a bane on Mewar.[1] He then lost all favour and faith from his father Udai Singh and had joined Akbar during lifetime ofUdai Singh along with another estranged brother Sagar Singh, joined the imperial army under Akbar.

Shakti Singh, who was fighting on side of Mughals, eventually came to rescue Rana Pratap at Battle of Haldighati and killed the Afghans and gave his own horse to him, when Chetak died. The brothers were united. Shakti Singh promised to join Maharana Pratap at a later date and asked him to leave immediately. Rana Pratap bid farewell and left.

Shakti Singh later went to join Rana Pratap and managed to capture Bhainsrorgarh[2] fort which was occupied by Mughal forces then. The brothers from then on were very close to each other.

Guys,

Shakthi Singh joins the service of Akbar so that he could defeat Pratap with help of Mughals & win the throne of Mewar & show his father that he too is as brave as Pratap. But when he realizes that the Mughals want to destroy his whole family & his kingdom of Mewar he will realize his Mistake as he would never want to get the throne of Mewar by killing his elder brother or father.
