She was very outspoken and mischievous. She was called the butterfly of the harem. She was fondly called Ladli Begum ("loved one") by Akbar.

Akbar also repeatedly told Jahangir: “Bābā! for my sake be as kind as I am, after me, to this sister, who in Hindi phrase is my darling (that is, dearly cherished). Be affectionate to her and pass over her little impolitenesses and impudences.”<ref name=":1" /><br />
