When emperor Shajahan finished building the Taj Mahal, he plainly talked to his architect to get ready for his execution,as he wants nobody to build a monument as He built.Then architect replied like this, if you kill me then I will see that the roof will pour little drop water permanently.Later it is confirmed that Emperor killed the architect the water drops do you believe this.

well,i have heard a different story behind this,after the completion of taj,shahjahan the emperor was sucked after seeing the beauty of taj.so,he gifted this to his beloved wife mumtaz thus called mumtaz mahal. but,shahjahan never wanted this kind of beauty to be built again on this earth and so he ordered his men to cut the hands of the artitechturer so that in future no such designs can be made by him.
