** Alauddin Khilji is portrayed effectively as a hedonistic barbarian in this film. While the real life Alauddin was a warlord who waged campaigns of conquest, he was also known to be quite sophisticated, borrowing elements from Persian culture, and for enforcing a code of etiquette on his court.
** Similarly, Jalaluddin is depicted as being arrogant and power hungry, when the real Jalaluddin has been documented as being a very polite and humble ruler who stabilized Delhi after taking the throne.
