Yes he was a great womanizer i mean casanova as i mentioned in starting posts.I had read he ordered his nobels wife to be sent to him in Delhi her name Daulat Shad and her brother-in-law in anger shot an arrow at him when he was in Delhi market(shown in movie Jodha Akbar as Agra market). Is it meena bazaar you are talking of as some debauchery festival???? Because what i heard in meena bazaar if akbar liked any woman anyone's wife/daughter/sister they had to send to him. He was morally highly corrupt till almost 40 years of age where he would set sight on any girl they would be in trouble. Women had a tough time in his rule. He was even jealous of his son's maturing and liking/marrying girls - reverse opeidus syndrome i guess read it in some book. So i agree Akbar was a great womaniser till his children became adults and even then he never hesitated to marry any girl. In 1595 he married 12 rajput princesses on a single day in kashmir. Whether marriage was political but still does not justify marrying girls who are almost three decades younger. That was the age he was already grandfather of Salim's four children and his other children's inumerable kids. So we can make out he was a womanizer till late age.Jehangir had a huge harem inherited from his father- this cocubbines/maids etc would be inherited by next king. But per say Jehangir was not a womanizer in the sense like his father or son Shah Jahan.
