Whose 'wife' is it anyway

What would you say if for some reason people start questioning if you are sure your wife's name is the one you say it is?

Poor Akbar has been experiancing this problem from the time, a wretched bollywood character decided to make a movie on Akbar and his wife, who for polictical reasons we will not name! I'm sure Akbar must have called his wife by a love name, maybe 'sweety' or no sweety is too English, hmm maybe rosy , nah thats too chiristen (Thomes Roe had not yet arrived in the Mughal Court) could it be jaanu (sweet heart in Urdu). Well in case that is true maybe the latest bollywood flick can be renamed and be called Akbar and Jaanu.

Maybe lot of waring factions would give up their agitations as there is no link to a historical character who could be called jaanu. Incidently this theory was propogated by none other then the female lead of the movie, whose cell phone phone directory had a entry by that very name. Some people argue thats it was not any historical research.

Some erastwhile princes say that this flick is historically inaccurate, and actually the female was not Akbar's wife but actually his Son's wife!! incest! amazing what the way their minds work!

All I can say, a rose by any other name would smell as sweet, so call her whatever she remains his wife. Afterall he once ruled most of India , give that guy some credit!
