| The story involved a quasi-historical episode from Emperor [[Jehangir]]'s reign where his sense of justice is brought into question when his wife, the Empress [[Nur Jehan|Noor Jehan]] is implicated by Rami, a washer woman, in the killing of her husband.
| |
|
| |
| ==Plot==
| |
| Emperor Jehangir is known all over India for his sense of justice, and loved by the public for that. Empress Noor Jehan goes on a hunt and accidentally shoots dead a washer man with her arrow. His widow, Rami Dhoban, comes to the palace and rings the bell of justice. When Jehangir learns that Rami demands his justice of "a life for a life", he puts himself forward to be killed by Rami. Eventually the episode is sorted out through his ministers, with Rami forgiving the Empress and her husband.
