Symbols and Analysis:
The truth of life is death- Guruji said this, and told Pratap to accept it, Pratap knows that its the truth, we all know it, but we all deny it because we are so attached to our loved ones that we dont want to let go! but yesterday I said that US told Pratap to face death and defeat it, so to Pratap death is like is second friend so its hard for him to digest it even though he knows that death comes to all one day!
Ajabdeh- once again saved pratap today! - the mala stopped Pratap and made him remember her words of caution! when GJ was around, it was the mala that saved him from the poison dart that she threw! Again highlighting that as long as she is there, nothing will happen to Pratap!
tumhare ghar mei gaddar hai- Nasir said that, and i dont think marwar did this, but he is right, anyone who doesnt help unify Rajputana is a gaddar!! so maldev, his family are traitors to the land! Anyone who spills unnecessary blood for their own cause is a gaddar- like Jalal (he was born in Rajputana)- so he is the number one gaddar- you dont spill the blood of your own people (they were born on the same land jalal was born on) to increase your land inventory!
They didnt die, they became immortal!- so do not mourn heroes, it would be an insult to their death! I have heard this line before many times, and its true, when someone's whole aim in life is to serve their nation and die for their motherland and protect it till death, it would be wrong to cry when they died doing just that! it would go against everything they lived for! but as family and friends it can be hard to lose someone and not be able to mourn them, but if we just keep this in mind that the soul never dies and as long as there is even one person there to remember that martyr, that martyr or martyrs are not dead, they are alive, so in theory, all our great freedom fighters liek Lakshmibai, Maharana Pratap, Prithviraj Chauhan, Shivaji, etc are alive and will be till there is someone to remember them!
Rakht ka mulya!- this can only be paid with blood itself, Pratap was angry at the end, and thats what the mughals wanted, they wanted the two enemies to fight each other and die but I think Pratap will realise it soon cuz in the precap it seems he is trying to stop war! And in anger people say things they regret later, but Pratap's anger was right, he just lost his friends and mentor RK!
US- revived himself today by showing up at the right time and saving his son! I think he should at least acknowledge that Pratap was right in coming here! well anywho, he said some very good and meaningful words and the way he threw that knife, was awesome!!! he has not lost his fighting skills after all this time! LOL!
We all saw Pratap's shoe knives right? amazing right? well they are symbolic- so Jalal conspired against Pratap aur usne chaal chali Pratap ke virrudh! So Pratap using his feet to kill the soldiers and killing his chaal with his chaal (walk, act, shoe) put an end to this part of Jalal's plan!
RK just lying there was so moving, it was so sad to see Pratap remember their pledge they took to fight for their motherland till death! Pratap taking RK's hand is symbolic of the fact that even as RK is dead, Pratap will honour the Bhil-Rajput alliance and carry on the fight for the motherland! And that the promise still stands!
--------
Title: US's lightening entry& They didnt die, they're immortal!
Pratap reaches his Guru and finds out what happened; the three stooges of jalal want to capture Pratap to get reward!
the mughals are looking for Pratap; Pratap is tending to Guruji; and Pratap makes a strategy to face the mughals- Pratap loves his barud!
Pratap goes to get the barud and lays it down with a plan in mind!!! I love it when he uses barud, makes it so good!
OMG, Pratap takes a pledge by touching the ground and says that till he has even a drop of blood in him he will not let mughals step foot in Mewad!!!! I swear a chill ran thru me!
Kya nishana sadha Pratap ne! Pratap is trying to make spark and ends up throwing the rock at the other rock and gets a nice explosion!!! everyone on mughal side is like what the heck just happened- thats right the lion is in the house! run!
Ok so Pratap walks out of the fire like a south indian film hero lol! and his arm is burning of course our hero doesnt feel a darn thing!!! lol
And they changed the sad song into a song to inspire- that no one can stop the veer- damn right you cant stop them!
Pratap totally brushes off the fire like its dust (no i saw dust or ash when he brushed it off! LOL)
Pratap goes back to Guruji and tells him he diverted the mughals attention!
two soldiers decide to kill Pratap as they think they saw him!
Pratap is walking back to Guruji and Ajabdeh's mala gets stuck on something and remembers her words- to be cautious on the battlefield! so once again she saved him!
and he sees the soldiers waiting for him! ok I have no idea how he managed to jump on top of the front roof! cuz he just came out of no where and stabbed both the soldiers with a sharp object that he had strapped to his feet!
Guruji says that he cant leave him behind- Pratap says who? Guruji says its CHakrapani!!
Guruji says dont worry about him and go to chittod and inform US; Guruji orders him to leave! oh so I see why Pratap strapped Guruji to him cuz he couldnt disobey the order but he could leave him there!
SO now US and family see the fire from the distance and JB says that Pratap is there, so instead of taking a sena (like a smart person), US is going there alone! ok CVs im fed up with this!
Pratap finds Chakrapani in a unconscious state! Pratap takes him with him! And I love Pratap's shoe knives!!! dont even have to lift a hand to kill someone, just a foot or feet! lol
Pratap tells Chakrapani that im waiting for US to come, hopefully he comes fast!
Pratap says to Guruji that we both will fight, and that you have the capability to fight! Jai Mewad
precap scene- where Chakrapani is being kicked and Pratap+Guruji make their entry- they are tied together- looks weird but I guess it can be done with proper coordination!
They start shooting arrows- they make a very good team, I must say!!
ok so the hand to hand and feet combat was interesting, im sorry i thought it was funny how Guruji handled the kicking and pratap the punching lol! looked like a fight scene from a priyadarshan movie llol!
Ok so it got better when they took out the kattars and started fighting! good stuff! they manage to kill all the soldiers around them!! that was a good fight!
nasir the stooge challenges Pratap to a fight! and Pratap kills one of the stooges and the other stooges are hit by an arrow!!! guess who finally arrived and is fightign= US and his soldiers- when they said Jai Mewad!!! it was so thrilling, such a moment of pride!!!!
Guruji is not waking up! well obviously he has lost a lot of blood and he just fought! ok so those two stooges that US shot were only injured, US never learn to kill his enemy, not injure!!
well the other stooge is about to throw a knife when US hears or senses danger and sees the stooge and throws a knife at him and kills him!!! OMG! US and his reflexes- soo good!
nasir says marwad helped them get here- i have my doubts on that!
they are shocked!
US sees Guruji's hand move!!! so he is alive!!!
Pratap sees his dead friends, RS, Anuj, Pratap finally sees Rana Khetta and remembers how he pledged his life to the fight for the motherland!
Pratap remembers the alliance they formed with bhils- rani jaya, bhili jaya bhai bhai!!! So sad!
US comes and says do not mourn them, they died smiling and fighting for their motherland, they didnt die, they became immortal! sooo true!!! and US says that crying for them would mean that you are insulting their sacrifice! I have heard this line in the movie long time back- i think Purab aur paschim!
US says marwad is coming, and Pratap says that the betrayers of the land will suffer and pay for what they did!
Precap- marwad gets the dead soldiers, more war, Pratap says he has to end this war...
Today was good towards the end, the first half was hide and seek game! i was like really iss se toh acha 30 min hai!! But the fight at the end was good, US's entry was great, finally he is of some use! And Pratap walking around and remembering his mentor and friends was so moving!!!
