Jai Rajputana - that was the battle cry that Ratan Singh shouted instilling morale into the pessimistic crowd around Guruji! I was so happy and proud when that happened. I was cheering with them, im sure you all were too! Ratan Singh today is the unity factor between mewad and marwad because he is from Ajmer but is willing to forget all the enemity to save his motherland from the mughals! That is the spirit marwad should have!! Till a few days ago, the important VIPs of mewad and marwad were talking unity but today its an unlikely person, a Samant, who is bringing Rajputana together, though its not a strong start, its a start nonetheless! Change usually begins at the bottom of society and of heirarchy and today Ratan Singh battle cry proved that!
Darkness- you must have noticed that when Rawatji and Pratap were talking, they kept showing the dark room that was outside the room they were standing in, they kept zooming in and out. This symbolises the darkness and evil that has surrounded Mewad at the moment, the conspiracy/darkness wants to get into mewad and destroy it but the room where Pratap is standing is too bright, meaning that they all in Chittod are still living by the rules of the Sat yug, which it no longer is! they are living in a dream world, dreams are brighter than reality, they dont realise the extent of darkness that is all around them!
Rules of War- In mewad everyone is saying no one attacks during Jauhar Barsi, but everyone outside of mewad, they are preparing and marching towards mewad and that is like declaring war cuz during such days you dont even start the march to battle! Again the royals of mewad except Pratap think that they are safe from war till the end of the barsi! they need to wake up from their dream!
Mother's instinct- JB did the right thing by allowing Pratap to follow his heart because somewhere she is afraid and unsure of the happenings! Even when it was announced that the three kingdoms were sending senas, she didnt smile, she wasnt convinced! Though she said that leaving the havan would be a bad omen she then changed her view because if there was real danger looming then the havan wouldnt do any good for them and she is very smart to realise that! Though the precap only show the worst, I think that its not a bad omen but the beginning and until you have really lost, you are still winning!
Child's instinct- After all Pratap is a child compared to the others! And children many times notice and see things that adults dont pick up on! And today Pratap's suspicions were strong but the adults except for JB were not convinced, partly because the adults didnt want to think outside the box and dont think that someone could go to such an extent to defeat them! Times are changing!
A Guru's Gyaan- today Guruji's observation and knowledge of emblems saved Mewad from total destruction, Mewad has a chance now that he saw the emblem of the mughal army on one lone horse! you all must know the shlok - Guru Brahma, Guru Vishnu, Guru devo Maheshwara...- basically today he lived up to that, as he is the protector (Vishnu) of the border of mewad, he will destroy (Mahesh) all that comes to harm mewad and he will create (Brahma) the way to defend his motherland!
Horse- the one lone horse gave up its master's plan. It is said that a horse maintain's the honour and name of its master! And today that one horse hindered jalal's plans. Though its not the horse's fault, it was the emblem (that was suppose to bring luck but today brought misfortune) that compromised their plan! but in the end the horse leads in battle so he gave up his master's plans!
13,000 brave and exceptional women gave the ultimate sacrifice to save the honour of Rajputana when Jauhar was led by Maharani Karnavati! If any of you have not seen that episode where they show it in flashback- please watch it- here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyTt93X5Gsg - it was such a sad scene! but you have to watch it if you havent seen that episode!

Title: Jai Rajputana, Guru devo bhava, Pratap's shak&13,000 brave souls!
Pratap wants to go to Marwad but US stops him and so does JB!
hukkum comes and says that the three kingdoms are sending soldiers! but Pratap said I didnt ask for soldiers, i asked for help only! nicee catch Pratap!!
A Lohar has come to meet Pratap!
OMG Im so excited, RS is pulled out of the water, and Guruji recognises him as Ratan Singh of Ajmer!!! Ratan singh is revived and gives them the best help yet!!! one of the students see the sena and says that the three kingdoms have sent senas! And RS wakes and says that its jalal's sena!!!! Ratan Singh you deserve a bravery medal!! Ratan SIngh tells them what happened and the prince from hakkimpur doesnt believe it and goes with Guruji to confirm!
The Lohar tells him that the three kingdoms have ordered 3000 new armours for soldiers, which alerts Pratap!! I mean soldiers dont need new armours like that, and not all at once!
Guruji sees the sena and after observing the horse of the main leader recognises the sena as mughal as there is a star and green color on the horse!! Waah kya observation karte hai aap Guruji!!! Jai Ho!
Pratap is reading the replies of the kings and is suspicious! lage raho!! but Rawatji and US tell him to not worry about it! these men are sooo blind!
Apparentlly no one attacks anyone during Saka-Jauhar Barsi (remembrance day for Jauhar and Saka (saka is when the rajput men go out to battle to fight to the death as the women are commiting jauhar so they dont have to worry about their safety)
Guruji tells his students and rana Khetta that they will hold back the mughals while Jauhar barsi havan is going on! while everyone is skeptical, Ratan Singh who is still ill says we are ready and leads them in the chant- Jai Rajputana!! Jai Rajputana!
Pratap is getting ready to leave, but JB sees him and asks him what happend, so Pratap says he has a suspicion on the senas that are coming, and JB says that if you have a strong suspicion then its not trivial!! FINALLY someone believes him!!! She says follow your heart but says take blessing from those 13,000 women who commited Jauhar to save Rajputana honour!
OMG seeing the flashbacks of the Jauhar gave me goosebumps! so sad to see that, but salute and pranam to those women for having that courage that very few do!
when JB says that you can leave after the first part of the havan, Pratap says that you sound like Ajabdeh! omg!!! hahah! finally yaad kiya usse!
our bawri Ajabdeh is writing letter after letter to Phool to explain herself! And HB comes but doesnt stop her! Ajabdeh is fasting for Jauhar Barsi! HB is so proud of her!
Guruji tells everyone that they need to fortify the gates of Mewad! so they start the work!! Literally holding the fort down!!
Precap- tomorrow looks like a depressing episode, everyone is getting hurt, guruji, Chakrapani, Pratap is attacked by hukkum! oh dear!
I absolutely loved today!!!! It was soo nice to see Guruji and everyone working together to stop the enemy! I loved JB-Pratap scene! I just loved it! This episode was the turning point because conspiracies were revealed to at least one protagonist!!!
