8th June

Pratap and his team shoot arrows at the Mughal soldiers coming out from the archway. The commander tells his soldier to rush towards the fort holding gunpowder in his hand. Pratap aims the spear at him. The soldier dies. Akbar questions his soldiers for the act. He scolds them for going ahead without consulting him.

The ladies at the palace decide to eat less from tomorrow so the citizens don't have to be hungry.

Pratap makes the soldiers throw huge stones down towards the archway. The archway is blocked. Akbar is surprised at Pratap's thinking. Akbar bribes the workers. They chant praises of Akbar's name. Rawat ji notices that the work has resumed once again. Pratap decides to attack Mughals whenever they come out of the archway.

Rann Singh's father is on his way while Patta gets married following all the rituals.

Pratap tells everyone to be alert all the time and increase the security. Kalla doesn't want to lose the precious time by just keeping a vigil. Kalla turns to go but Pratap calls out to him. Kalla says I have learnt it from you that you win wars not by patience but by being brave. I will prove it to you when the time comes. Kalla walks out of the court. Pratap is tensed as the situation is getting bad.

Vajra Singh gives the message to Patta's mother. He reads the message and is upset with himself that he dint know of anything all this while. Patta decides to leave for Chittor right away.


9th June

Kalla gets dressed as an ordinary citizen and prepares to to enter to enter the enemy's tent.

Patta tells his wife not to worry about him when he is away and seeks his mother's blessings.. His wife brings puja thaal for him does his aarti. Patta feels lucky.

Kalla is standing in the queue with the other laborers.

In Chittor all realise that Kalla got inside Mughal tent without seeking anyone's permission. Pratap asks everyone if they trust his leadership or not. Everyone talks in affirmative.Pratap said that he was thinking of going to Mughal tents when Patta would join them and kill the mughal.
US and his family resume their journey. Chand faints. Everyone gets worried for her. Chand finally wakes up. Chand gives her consent.

Pratap too decides to go inside the Mughal tents all by himself. Ishar Das ji wants to go to rescue Kalla. Rawat ji tells them that that should all go there together to attack on that Mughal. The sudden attack will surprise him. He will not get any chance to be ready to fight back. They all agree.

Rawat ji talks about unity and they decide to attack the next morning.


10 June

All the ladies are talking when Sarda Bai comes there and tells that their brave soldiers have decided to get into a war with that Mughal's army.The soldiers get ready to fight against the Mughals. They actually feel blessed to sacrifice their lives for their motherland. Their main aim is to save Chittor at any cost. Pratap thinks how every soldier is thinking of dying or killing. No one is thinking about victory. There is no chance of winning in that case. The best situation will be to enter inside enemy's army tent and save Kalla.

The ladies understand the plan of their husbands. They wonder if they will win from Akbar. They feel they have no other option. Ajabde tries to make everyone think positive. All the ladies are very proud of their husbands. She holds out the key of the Jauhar room. We wont step back. We will support them in our way. We will do Jauhar. The ladies nod.

Patta and Vajra Singh too are on their way.

Rawat ji tells others to keep their eyes on Pratap.

The ladies come to the Jauhar room.

Pratap gets dressed as an ordinary citizen of Mewar. He is disturbed as he recalls everyone's words. It isn't just about saving Kalla but of thinking for everyone's welfare. He prays to Lord Kanha to give him one chance to fight against that Mughal bravely and put an end to this matter once and for all.


11th June 2015

Pratap sends the soldiers towards the main gate. He knows the safe route that can take him out to Akbar's tent. He had said it to Raja Jaimal earlier. He comes inside and finds someone standing there in the dark.

Ajabde and all the other ladies look around in the room. They imagine what all would have happened in the past. They find hand prints of many women there. There is a lone print on one wall. It is said to be of Rani Karnavati's. They all fold their hands.

Chakrapani shares that the enemy will reach them real soon. They resume their journey. Chand's bangle falls while they are on their way.
Ajabde wants to decorate this room in a way that they should feel like they have come here for the first time in this room and that it should look like their wedding night. One of the ladies imagines Mughals attacking her. She screams out loud. Ajabde says Jauhar will protect our dignity. The ladies chant Jai Bhawani.

Raja Jaimal steps out in the light. Pratap knew that Rawat ji will send everyone after him. Raja Jaimal has been observing him on his own.

The sand mountain is halfway done. Akbar wants the cannon to be shifted there so he can see to what extent can it reach now. The soldiers to keep the cannons in the front.
Pratap is sure he can kill Akbar even if he has 40k soldiers around him. Raja Jaimal gives him one last option to kill him.

Akbar too climbs up on the mountain. The soldier lights fire to the cannon. Akbar wants to double the size of the mountain. Pratap checks the mountain's progress through the binoculars. Rawat ji is tensed thinking what will happen if the mountain gets complete.

Akbar observes the laborers doing their work. Kalla keeps eyeing him. Akbar wants them to do the work a little faster. Kalla picks up an axe and walks towards Akbar. Isa Kaka notices him. He orders the soldiers to catch him. Kalla fights with the soldiers and kills them. He throws the axe towards Akbar. It lands almost near his feet. Akbar steps back. Kalla gets caught.
Pratap and Raja Jaimal make up their mind to leave asap. They stop as they notice Ajabde standing there. Pratap sends Raja Jaimal to make all the necessary preps. She had already heard everything. He thinks she is actually aggravating the situation for him. She tells him to leave in the evening. He is proud of her and tells her that she has proved it that she is the wife of a warrior only. He hopes that Kalla is safe till then.









Jauhar Chouk ke darshan- ok so how many of you had goosebumps when Ajabdeh and the other shatranis made their way to the jauhar room? I had them, I bowed my head in respect to those women who went in willingly! That room is a living room, meaning that its alive, there are some many spirits that reside there watching over the future generations of women of Chittod, mewar and now of Bharat!

Jauhar Chouk is where life and death dwell together- Why did I say that-because if you saw the beginning episodes where JB opens the room, we see the darkness but we also see the light coming thru, we see the ash, the dark well where the women leaped to become martyrs but we also see the random plants growing there! Thru the ashes life is formed!

US to DB: Sometimes i do wonder is Jagmal is my child.









Chittod has completed its 3rd week consecutive of seize. Well i find this week a little slow as we get to see only Mughals' preparations and Pratap's wait for Patta. At least Kalla took an initiative even if it wasn't completely wise from his part.
This week was for women especially. So,we don't have a "Veer Putra" but a " Veer Putri". Yes you might guess it, the " Veer putri of the week" is our lovely, beautiful and brave Ajabde. Well we can also count the "wives gang" in the title ( sorry don't know their names lol).
As i said, these women were the highlight. First, because, they are very loyal to their husband but also most important, their matruboomi. They didn't hesitate if only 2 sec to sacrifiy their food for the soldiers as they think that warriors need to be strong for the war. Honestly, i feel that being a princess or a queen isn't an easy task at all. They have many responsability, pressure, they should do wilingly, be generous, and knowing to trust someone else. I say that because Ajabde have a bilnd trust in Pratap and is living this war/ attacks without any fears as she knows that her husband will win despite the fact that he could lose his life. Well, i hope you get what I mean. Having this confidence in such case is very impressive and i think it motivates also their husband.
Then, What was noteworthy this week is the preparation for Jauhar. It was really well portrayed. The way Ajabde was convincing her "wive gang", by god i loved it, very good performance by Rachana honestly. It was full of confidence, fearlessness, dignity, love for her matruboomi. I can felt a kind of autority. Who says that Women are not less than anyone ??? Certainly, mens had to go at the front to fight their enemies. But this act of self immolation is as brave as the war. Both cases lead to the same end which is death. But knowing the fact that when you jump there is no possibilites of coming back, forget that just the simple fact and you will feel your body being burned and the pain of dying... Jauhar isn't at all an act of cowardness or weekness, actually i don't think if there's a word to describe this bravery, Your really need to have guts to do that. I'm not saying that men didn't suffer during the war etc ... but at least they have more chances to survive whereas Jauhar is radical.
Once again, it's a pleasure to see a strong AjabDe after a long time but her confidence, her patriotism, and the Jauhar scenes deserve totally this title of "veer putri of the week". This week showed us that men were the only ones to fight, women were also fighting equally. Not being at the front doesn't mean that you are fighting , but women's sacrifies are honorable. Their contribution is as important as men's. And i think many people forget that. So i would like to finish my section, with a big salute to all the women who performed the act of Jauhar. Till then Jai Bhavani ! Jai matruboomi !šŸ‘













This week was thoda difficult for me kabhi laga akbar toh kabhi kalla toh kabhi pratap. Yes last week laga ki pratap ko irritant of the month ka denq chaiye and I fully agree on it. Par as for this week the honour goes to our dear kalyan singh aka kalla because if he wouldn't have ran away then pratap's over-generous nature wouldn't have been ignited. A senapati should always be heard by his fellow mates and kalla had ti disobey hin and land everyone in grave trouble. Poor rawatji had to be harsh on pratap bcoz of kalla and his foolhardiness. So this was my opinion.










Namaskar priye mitron and forum waasiyon hum haazir hain iss week ke ratings ke saath. Aapko inform kiya jaata hai ki yeh ratings maine apne poore conscience ke saath di hain and aage aap jo read karne waale hain that is all my rant.
Disclaimer: My views are not intended to hurt any sentiments oif anyone if they do then I apologise because I can be a bit blunt sometimes but do try to take it in the context its presented. Joote chappal agar maarne ka mood ho toh - I want brand new ones in blue or pastel colours - I don't like heels and haan mera size is Bata number 8 and waise 41 ish - toh sahi size ke laana and new ones

Shuru karte hain

Ab kya kahen hum iss week ke episodes ke baare mein - CVs ne history ko poori tarah se kar diya hai distort and apni new history likhne mein lage hain woh log - three historical shows production mein jab hote hain tab aise galti karna is not good - yahan par khichdi pakka di hai and am toh waiting ki ab MP mein woh log Jodha ko bhi entry kara denge after all MP show MP ki life ke baare mein thode hi na hai woh toh Akbar, uske chamche, uss buddhe ki new plans and traps ki story hai jismein Pratap is the centre of the universe -matlab jo new entry hoti hai usko pyaar ho jaata hai Pratu se ya uska deewaana ban jaata hai tabhi toh Pratu ka attention paane ke liye Kalla bhaiya chale gaye Akbar ke kheme mein - ab jahan Akbar ho wahan toh Pratu jaayega na after all - do dilon ke milan ka sawaal hai
Kalla ab yeh toh bas ek hi khwaab dekh rahen hain - ki woh Akbar ke region mein infiltrate karke usko maar denge and agar pakde gaye to phir Pratap aayenge unko bachaane.

Moving on Pratap-Patta ki new pairing aa gayi hai and this time its Pratap who is betaab for Patta - matlab ek toh bechaare Patta ko moochi laga di and phir bhi he looks so young upar se finally we see his bride who looks older to him yahan par CVs ko jhol dekhen - Patta's young bride had committed the Jauhar this is what history tells us but CVs ki history mein Patta the young boy ko laga di moochi but ohir bhi he looks young whereas uski wife looks older than him - remember Maan uski gwalior ke golu se shaadi hui thi and she was preggers but woh toh chotti bacchi lag rahi thi jabki unki sister Chand looked older than her. Jaimal and unki wife ki pairing ke baare mein sab jaante hain - unki wife CVs ko sunaati hongi - main kya karun Ram CVs ne muhje buddha de diya...haaye buddha de diya šŸ˜†šŸ˜†šŸ˜† Coming back to Patta-Pratap: Patta has left for Chittor and woh jaa raha hai apne Jijusa ke paas in full speed

Situation ke liye song bhi hai mere paas


Patta Patta Patta aaja aaja aaja

Patta Patta Patta Aaja Aaja Aaja

Aajare mere saath, ke yeh jaggy jaggy raath

pukar tuje soon, soona de woh hi dhun

Milkar bajaayein hum iss Mughal ki doom (tail) (We have Lakshmi dancing on this tune)


Aage badte hain the only saving grace of this week's episode where the scenes with the women. We finally see traces of Baijilal in Ajabde- Baijilal was on vacation but ab waapis aa gayi hain woh and is encoruaging everyone else to be brave as well. The Jauhar room scene raises goosebumps but room badal gaya hai - budget mein old room include nahi ho pa raha tha isiliye new room de diya gaya hai.

Chand faints - ek new problem matlab itni hot weather mein itne heavy clothes and jewellery pehnoge toh kya gaana gayoge? Seriously folks they should have shown them in lighter dresses trying to at least camouflage themselves against the enemy and try to blend in but nahi withoit make-up Jaggu bhaiya jee nahi sakte and JM ke bina DB, Chand adhoore hain. Though DB ka new roop is just for the time being Baijilal ki tarah uska vamp side is on vacation abhi - women played a pivotal role during the sieze and its pleasant to see CVs not destroy that part at least - haan Baijilal return was long awaited and am not sure if she'll stay during the next week but this week it was only the women in my eyes that did a commendable job. Go Women Power


After the women the only sane person we see is Rawatji I would like to honour him with the title of "The Wall" (like Rahul Dravid) because he is the one man who inspires and unites everyone in the palace. The way he speaks is so effective more than Pratap's I feel and also the fact that his expressions - hats off to him šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘

So finally the ratings: Okay lets be honest here CVs have destroyed history and they are ruining the sieze I mean Common guys Patta, Jaimal should have been there already with their respective brides also Praja should be in Kumbhalgargh, there should have been fights on a daily basis and Chittor had weapons more than spears, bows and arrows than depicted. I get it Hakim Khan Hanuman ban gaya but woh apni canons Pratu ko dekar gaya tha - this week all I felt like was


Read Abhay's (history geeks) posts on these topics people because CVs hume hyderabadi biryani ke naam par crow biryani serve kar rahen hain😔

I go for 2 this week and if we see it's a downfall from my first rating and I sincerely pray that CVs don't give me anymore reason to bring the ratings down but OLVs and some posts make it look like we have hard days ahead of us.
Kindly follow Rati's advice and leave comments on Sony's social media outlets telling them to not destroy this sacred part of history due to some TRPs please because this one event was one the darkest yet most bravest thing that took place in our history. Let's not destroy it for teh sake of TRPs.

This is all from me for this time hope to hear your verdict for my ratings. Till then Peace and have fun

Some info about the ancestors of Maha Rana Pratap:

As we know, it was Bappa Rawal who established himself at Chittor around 734 AD. Remember that 734 AD marks the year of establishment of Mewar dynasty at Chittor. Though, the first ruler of this dynasty was Guhaditya (566 to 586 AD). Bappa Rawal was the 8th ruler.

Bappa Rawal fought many battles against the Arab and Turkish invaders. And he emerged victorious in them. Munyeseri Nainsairi Khayath, mentions he fought "pitched and offensive" wars against the Muslim invaders. I can not give details because my Sanskrit to English translation and understanding is not very good. Those accounts are in Sanskrit.

1.
There is a line given in Vacha-nika of Rao Ratan Singh of Mewar. It reads --
" Rawal Saat Samand bich ki di seem garh gajpat ganjiya "

Rawal - Refers to Bappa Rawal
Saat Samand - Upto the sea
garh - fort

2.
Amar Kavya Vanshawali mentions this about Bappa Rawal, again in Sanskrit --
" Sindhostu Sindhos-tat Uttarasya Nadyasch Vasnasya Bhu-yasti Seema "

Sindhu - This is a place in present day Pakistan.
tat - means Sea shore.
Nadya - referring to a river
Uttar - North
Bhu - Land
Seema - Boundary


As per these, Bappa Rawal fought battles with Arab invaders and his boundary extended till Sindh province of present day Pakistan, and in North the boundary ran upto a river, probably the river Ganga or a tributary of the river Indus. He had extended his kingdom till the sea shore in South. This is upto Gujarat. Hope you guys can understand the extent of his empire, as per your geographical knowledge.

If anyone can completely translate these Sanskrit lines, then please do so. There are less records comparatively, but I don't think there is extreme dearth of records. Many of the records are still present. The lament is who is ready to translate them. Will continue in next post...
