Artillery...
Fire the cannons.
Here, here, here and here.
The fortifications are giving way.
So, Babur can take advantage of my...
I mean, your weaknesses, and barge into my home.
No, my Lord.
The enemy is still miles away from the walls.
They are not aware of the extent of the damage.
In fact, Babur's army is stumped that,
even after five months,
Samarkand is functioning normally without any lack of food.
My Lord...
They don't know of your masterstroke.
This tunnel.
There's something that still eludes our eyes.
We are exactly where we were five months ago.
Their walls will begin to weaken by our attacks eventually.
That's how Samarkand's been built.
It can only be won with patience.
How much longer?
We laid siege without notice.
Shaibani just about had time to shut the gates of the city.
There's no way he knew we were coming,
and yet it seems he was prepared.
Back when Shaibani had laid siege on Samarkand,
we had run out of food in three months.
Winter is upon us as well.
The army won't stand ground for too long.
The tribal soldiers from the south are not used to this extreme cold, sire.
I fear that the weather will kill our men before the war.
This isn't the time to worry but to charge ahead.
Or maybe... to retreat.
I'm not going back without my sister.
I've been waiting at this crossroad for centuries,
hoping that some day
you will come walking towards me.
How can you be sure of the path I will take?
I know that every path in this world leads to me.
I also know you and your path...
better than you.
Right now
you're thinking about your brother.
The brother who is hatching plans to defeat me
or wondering how he hasn't broken our defences yet.
Your idea to build the tunnel was brilliant.
But this can't go on forever.
At some point, I will have to end this.
And Babur.
It won't come to that!
I know why my brother is here.
To take you away from me.
And you also know
I will never let that happen.
When Babur left from here, I was your prisoner.
Now I am your wife.
And Babur doesn't know that.
And who will tell him?
I will.
All Babur wants is my happiness.
If I tell him that my happiness lies with you,
then he will retreat.
Give me one chance to meet my brother.
To save his life.
And if he's still not convinced,
then?
Then I will accept your decision.
Either you're very brave
or very stupid,
to come alone, King Babur.
I've come here as a brother, not a king.
Relationships are beyond bravery or stupidity.
If you were here as a king,
I would've taken much joy in killing you.
But since you're here as a brother...
I'll have to open my arms for you sadly.
After all, you are my brother-in-law.
Every question need not have an answer.
Just know that I am happy.
-But-- -This is not about you or Shaibani.
This is about my life.
And I have made my decision.
I am not a part of some condition anymore, Babur.
I'm Shaibani's wife.
The queen of Samarkand...
who carries within her the heir of this throne.
You've counted all your new relationships.
Shall I remind you of the old ones? Your blood ties?
I am doing this for my blood.
Nothing comes above my family.
And I can't choose between family.
You should go back.
Times have changed, Babur.
We are no longer children watching rabbits digging the ground,
talking about coming out on the other side of the world.
Try to understand, Babur.
And remember my words...
Your sister's decision is for you and her,
not for my army.
We've got nothing to do with your personal matters.
We just want Shaibani.
You promised us.
If the princess has asked us to retreat,
there's no point in staying here.
Then you may retreat.
Our army will stay.
Your army?
Your army cannot break into Samarkand alone.
Will you risk the lives of your soldiers unnecessarily?
I can understand your pain.
The war ended even before it began.
You chose me over your family.
Thank you.
You are my family too.
Your tears have become my weakness.
And I don't like weaknesses.
I don't want to belittle your sacrifice by putting a price on it.
But I do want to give you a gift.
The death of Kabul's king.
That's my gift to you.
He left the throne of Kabul without an heir.
Once Babur's army retreats, I shall march to Kabul.
Soon you shall be the queen of both Kabul and Samarkand.
Consider it a token of my gratitude.
Have you made arrangements for the journey?
Mir Ali and his army have also decided to retreat.
I think your decision is wrong.
She is your sister. You must fight for her.
Fight for whom?
The Khanzada I knew better than myself
seems like a stranger today.
Everyone changes with time, Babur,
and who knows this better than you?
With time a person's interests, nature, preferences,
even love changes.
Everyone has to change with time and circumstances.
Whether he's an ordinary man like me
or a king.
I mean, maybe your sister hasn't changed,
maybe her circumstances have.
Maybe she couldn't clearly express what she really meant.
Qasim, tell Wazir Khan our army must retreat immediately.
The entire convoy should be out of here before sunset.
Tell the soldiers to be at ease.
The danger has been averted.
How were you so sure?
Rabbits build tunnels.
That's what Khanzada was trying to tell me.
My Lord, Babur has learned about the tunnel.
He and his men have entered the city.
The entire army of Persia is also with him.
Our soldiers can't hold them off for long.
The army's retreat was just a deception, my Lord.
It was all a ruse.
Go and open the doors.
Someone has betrayed us.
How did Babur enter the city?
Everything I said and did was in your presence.
Charge!
My Lord, Babur and his army will be here any minute.
We'll keep them engaged until you escape.
Let's go.
I'll go wherever you go.
Charge!
Thank you.
If God wills, we'll meet again.
Mir Ali, bring more soldiers.
I'll handle them.
Never doubt your decisions...
made during war.
Take good care...
of my Lord.
Sister!
Khanzada!
Where is Khanzada?
I don't know.
Maybe Aitbaar knows.
My King!
Wazir Khan...
Wazir Khan?
My King...
Wake up, Wazir Khan.
I command you to wake up.
Where is my sister?
Is your pain for losing Samarkand,
parting ways with Babur,
or choosing to come with me?
Samarkand was never mine.
And Babur and I can never be separated.
Then I am the reason for your pain.
Do you regret your decision?
Living with our decisions is our destiny.
I'll write my own destiny...
with your brother's blood.
If you hate my blood so much, then why marry me?
Because I am a princess?
I love you, not your blood.
But my loyalty is towards my blood.
Babur's victory was my goal.
You're not the reason for my pain.
It's the decision I made many years ago.
For Babur to win,
you must lose.
My heart has bound me to you
while my blood binds me with Babur.
I must sacrifice my heart for the sake of blood.
Let my love be remembered thus...
that I met my beloved's betrayal with loyalty.
Wazir Khan?
Wazir Khan would've been the happiest with our victory.
Qasim, prepare for celebrations.
Today's celebration will be in Wazir Khan's honour.
I know you both had your differences.
But you feel his loss as terribly as I do.
So, today we must celebrate his life.
Babur.
Babur won.
If you order the caravan to prepare,
I'll inform Babur about our arrival.
I will stay here.
Kutlugh needs me more than Babur.
Then I'll write to him to postpone the coronation for a few days.
-When mother's condition-- -Never.
The coronation must not be postponed, no matter what.
Khanzada will crown him.
This is how life works.
Everything old fades out
to make way for everything new.
I thank you for everything you did for my sister.
Your sister firmly believed that you'd come.
We only lay our trust in her belief
and helped her.
Helping her was in our interest too.
If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask.
Who would have thought Shaibani would die this way?
If the Shah of Persia hadn't sent his army on time--
I never want to discuss this again.
It's time for my coronation,
and Grandmother has ordered that you'll crown me.
My King!
Qasim said that the Shah hadn't put forward any condition.
Read it again!
The message won't change if you--
"I congratulate you on defeating Shaibani and annexing Samarkand."
Come to the point!
"Now that victory is yours,
"I expect you to fulfil my condition.
"I, the Shah of Persia, allow Zahir ud-Din Babur
"to govern Samarkand as my representative.
"I expect you to bow allegiance to the Persian throne."
