Mughal-e-Azam but this time instead of Salim and Anarkali, it's Akbar forcefully seperating his nobles from their homosexuaI lovers.

Jalal Khan Qurchi, known for being first Mughal emissary to Maharana Pratap, even attempted to flee India with his lover, only to be caught and then confined under a public staircase, so he would be trodden by everyone entering it.
Ali Quli Khan Zaman, one of the most powerful -

- Uzbeg noble who helped Humayun reconquer his lost dominions, fell for a certain Shaham Beg, and engaged in "the filthy manners of Transoxania" (Abu'l Fazl). This earned him the ire of Akbar who had them seperated.
Zaman later led a great rebellion against the empire.

Many more nobles were seperated from their lovers in similar fashion. The Uzbegs were particularly caricatured as homosexuaI delinquents in Imperial Timurid propaganda, with the land beyond Oxus as the source of all such "wicked manners."

Rosalind O'Hanlon writes that alongside the rejection of the "Turanian vice" of homosexuaI love, Akbar also sought to enforce his "patriarchal and heterosexual model of North Indian male virtue" over the corrupt practices of Turanians and Iranian-influenced Deccanis.
