It has become a fashion now a days showing cowards as hero Kiran Devi with her knife on Akbar’s throat. Kiran was Maharana Pratap’s niece. Akbar once saw her at Meena Bazaar, and ordered her to be 'presented' before him. At the outrage of her modesty, Kiran took out her hidden knife and pounced on Akbar. She let him go only after Akbar apologized and came to know she's Maharana Pratap's niece. But, you would never have heard of this until now. Our history books have been written to make "Akbar ー The Great." This painting and the incident's narration is displayed in the Jaipur museum. References : 1. Maharaja Pratap by Bhawan Singh Rana. 2.
