Note: The Synopsis is conclusion of Various Scholars and their Opinions of Akbar's Character and Policies.
1: Jalal in his young stage was a cruel person. He used to organise Meena Bazar to capture beautiful young ladies.
2: He tried to abuse a Rajput ruler's Wife.(Just like how Roa Surtan wants Dheerbai)
3: Jalal was hot tempered and greatly trusted Maham Anga who by the way wanted him as a puppet ruler and wanted to keep him Childless. She conspired Abortions in his harem. He got to know that after her death and got sense of her misdeeds after his marriage with Jodha Bai.(Though it is not clear if she was the one who made him against Maham Anga.)
4: Jalal was born in Amarkot whose ruler was a Rajput and helped his father Humayun in his bad times. That's why he respected Rajputs and he also knew that with making them his allies he could spread Mughal Empire to long distances.
5: His Rajput Policy was entire Political and he wanted to keep Rajputs under his subjugation. He did not trust their loyalty for many years but after his marriage to several rajput ladies and seeing their high virtues and morality he emotionally became soft towards them. But still his policy was entirely political.
6: He kept Hindus in finance department as they were more loyal and virtuous than muslims.
7: His favorite and only queen was JODHA BAI/HARKA BAI/HEER KANWAR/ MARYAM UZ ZAMANI. He loved her so much that he on her advice nominated Khusrav his grandson as his heir though nobles supported Jahangir.
8: His policy towards Mewar was intolerant and he imposed Jaziya in Mewar to basically annoy Kanwar Pratap.
9: He never eyed PHOOL KANWAR and never lusted for anyone's wife atleast not in his later stage.
10: He left eating Beef.
