Jodha Akbar: Rukaiya poisons Zeenat & Bharmal slaughters Qasim for

The troops go about searching the palace to find the culprits, while Zeenat and Qasim hide in a corner with their baby.

Jodha's father King Bharmal manages to find Qasim hiding in a certain part of the palace to save himself and engages in a sword fight with him. Bharmal succeeds in killing Qasim for the ruthless murder of his grandsons.

Meanwhile, an insane and ferocious Rukaiys goes about seeking Zeenat and finds her hiding in the Harem. Rukaiya takes Zeenat's baby from her and decides to kill him as a perfect revenge for the death of her adopted son Hussain. However, Hamida Banu Begum arrives just on time and takes the baby away from Rukaiya and asks her not to commit the grave sin.

Salima and other women show the poisoned finger to Rukaiya which was used by Zeenat for killing the royal heirs. Rukaiya forcibly makes Zeenat taste the poisoned finger and the latter dies in within seconds.

Both Jodha and Jalal then go on to do the last rites of Hussain with a broken heart. Jodha laments the loss of her child and chides herself for romancing with Jalal unknown to the fact that her baby was battling for life during those moments. Jalal watches his baby wrapped in a white cloth and breaks down further. He blames God for not delivering justice despite the fact that being an emperor he has proven his efficiency.

Jalal swears to get back to his old, ruthless ways and throw back his faith on God.

This shocks Jodha, Hamida and other people present on the spot.

Will Jalal's anger subside or will he really resort of his old nature? Will there be a new heir for Jodha and Jalal in the coming days? Let's wait and watch.
