Nice to see this well known romantic tale of Saleem (later known as Emperor Jehangir) and Anarkali, the court dancer in the court of Akbar. Thanks for sharing. I am short of words to appreciate your engrossing style of narrating the tale and further course of events. I quote: The love that fears and has inhibitions / Is not love but it is and is a sin (it reminds me of Shakespeare's Sonnet- Love is not love which alters it when alteration finds) . Thanks.
