Jahangir, the fourth ruler of the Mughal Empire, was the son of Emperor Akbar.
Historical accounts depict Jahangir as having a penchant for alcohol.
While fatigued from hunting one day, someone suggested alcohol to alleviate his tiredness.
Jahangir experienced relief and enjoyment from drinking alcohol.
His alcohol addiction began at the age of 18, as documented in his autobiography, Tujuke-Jahangiri.
Consequently, he developed a regular habit of consuming alcohol.
Jahangir's daily consumption eventually reached 20 cups of liquor. This pattern of alcohol consumption became a notable aspect of Jahangir's reign.
