Humayun relaxed at Mandu for a while before leaving.</span></span></div>

<div><span style="font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif"><span style="font-size:14px">Humayun lost the kingdom to the Mallu Khan who was an office of the Khalji Dynasty. Ten years in the continuation of the feuds and invasion followed resulting in the end of Baz Bahadur Khan emerging on the top spot and ruled the area from AD 1555-1562. Hemu Vikramaditya the Commander-in-Chief and Prime Minister of Suri Army under the reign of Adil Shah Suri was sent to quell the rebellions and Hemu attacked on Mandu which led the fleeing of Baz Bahadur Khan from Mandu.

<div><span style="font-family:Times New Roman,Times,serif"><span style="font-size:14px">In 1561 AD Akbar&#39;s army led by Adham Khan and Pir Muhammad Khan attacked Malwa and defeated Baz Bahadur in the battle of Sarangpur on 29 March 1561. One of the reasons for Adham Khan&#39;s attack seems to be his love for Rani Roopmati. Rani Roopmati poisoned herself to death on hearing the news of fall of Mandu. Baz Bahadur fled to Khandesh. Akbar soon recalled Adham Khan and made over command to Pir Muhammad. Pir Muhammad attacked Khandesh and proceeded up to Burhanpur but he was defeated by a coalition of three powers: Miran Mubarak Shah II of Khandesh, Tufal Khan of Berar and Baz Bahadur of Malwa. Pir Muhammad died while retreating. The confederate army pursued the Mughals and drove them out of Malwa. Baz Bahadur regained his kingdom for a short period.</span></span></div>

Baz Bahadur remained a fugitive at a number of courts till he surrendered in November, 1570 to Akbar at Nagaur and then he joined Akbar&#39;s service.</span></span></div>
