From Thrones to Tombs — The Untold Deaths of Mughal Emperors

This video takes you through the final days, deaths, and burials of every ruler of the Mughal Empire, from Babur to Bahadur Shah Zafar — a 300-year journey of power, betrayal, tragedy, and destiny.
In this video, we uncover how the greatest emperors of South Asian history — who once ruled from Kabul to Delhi, Lahore to Agra, and Deccan to Bengal — met their ends in the most unexpected ways. Some were poisoned, some fell from stairs, some died in captivity, and some were exiled far away from their homeland.
You’ll witness the rise and fall of:
Zahir-ud-Din Muhammad Babur — the founder of the Mughal Empire, who gave his life for his son Humayun.
Nasir-ud-Din Humayun — who slipped on the stairs of Sher Mandal and died days later.
Akbar the Great — whose final days were spent in sickness, solitude, and political tension.
Nur-ud-Din Jahangir — who died on his way back from Kashmir.
Shah Jahan — the builder of the Taj Mahal, who spent his last years imprisoned by his own son, Aurangzeb.
Aurangzeb Alamgir — who ruled for nearly 50 years and chose to be buried in a simple grave at Khuldabad, near Aurangabad.
Bahadur Shah I, Jahandar Shah, Farrukhsiyar, Rafi-ud-Darajat, Shah Jahan II, Muhammad Shah Rangeela, Ahmad Shah Bahadur, Alamgir II, Shah Alam II, Akbar Shah II, and finally Bahadur Shah Zafar— the last Mughal emperor exiled to Rangoon (Yangon, Burma), where he died without even two yards of land for his grave.
Each story is a mirror of power and impermanence — showing how every throne eventually turns into a tomb.
