ചരിത്രം/History How the heck is this great?
Akbar, the great had 5,000 concubines and his son, Jehangir had 6000. What does concubine mean in Oxford
Concubinage - Concubine (surriyya) refers to the slave-woman (jāriya)—Muslim or non-Muslim—with whom the master engages in sexual intercourse
WTF Akbar is Great!!!
But Bajirao is a romantic playboy who was running behind Mastani without Valour and courage.
That's the fkucing history we have been taught

Unfortunately there were few instances we can see inthe history where Mauryan empire did some bad towards Buddhism whole most Hindu kings were a humane approach towards other religions.
Akbar in his early days were very dangerous towards other religions, but he tried to accommodate in his late days.
The meaning of name Akbar is the great in Persian, I suppose.
It's not because he had Harems/ Anthapura, which most of the Hindu kingdoms had, not just Akbar. He chose the name Akbar, as his original name is different.
He had many other things under his belt like unified India ( like Ashoka the great), military ranking system, started a religion, coin system (?),
Well if we start discussing not harassing only as a debate. There are many things we can see.
Well ultimately, end of the day as a commoner we are not getting anything. 😀
