Ans. (i) Tansen took the following steps to save himself:
(a) He asked the king to give him time to make preparations.
(b) He taught his daughter and her friend to sing Raga Megh properly. They started singing the same when the lamps started burning. As a result, the rain came down and Tansen was saved.
(ii) Yes, his plan worked. Tansen began to sing. The air became warm. Flames shot up of their own and lighted the lamps.
Just then, the two girls started singing Raga Megh. It brought down rain. In this way, Tansen’s life was saved.
