25 years of Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega
With all due respect, I'm now wondering why Shaheer and Sonarika chose this project.
Now a few mistakes that I noticed today and that I missed earlier:
- Didn't Anarkali have a sister as well? Also wasn't her real name Nadira, not Saifu, or is Saifu just a nickname?
- I thought Anarkali's mother was always a dasi in Akbar's palace? Even before Salim's birth. Then why are they coming from Faras?
- Abu Fazal was a poet right? Not a warrior. So why is he being shown a warrior here?
- And where are Birbal and the other navratans?
- They are showing Anarkali and Salim having friendship since childhood, but I thought they met after Salim returned from several years of training.
- Like mentioned, why isn't Salim being referred to as Sheikhu Baba? Not even once has Akbar said this affectionate term yet!
Please don't take me wrong as this post is not intended to hurt anyone.In this show, the only connection of this story to "history" that I see is that it is kind of related to the story of the movie Mughal E Azam. 😆 😆. For me this is just a love story based very loosely on some facts. Like a fan fiction written based on Dev and Sonakshi of KRPKAB. In these FFs we see so many variations of the same characters playing a completely different role with very different behavior than what was portrayed in the original series. This series is also like that. The characters from history are used to create a very imaginative love story. 😃 😉And this is the reason why both Shaheer and Sonarika chose this project. These roles give them the liberty to add their own flavor to the characters. They don't have to match to something that is accurate. They can use their imagination and improvise and basically show off their acting prowess. 😃 .I don't know about Pritvi Vallabh, but in KRPKAB, Shaheer as Dev was able to portray various shades of Dev from someone not believing in love, to becoming a lover boy, Devdas, father's dilemma, son's feelings, etc. And what I can see is him doing something similar to this in this series too. It is about a fictional story where there is so many accounts that lot of the details are obscure. Again, no offense to history, but there is so much variation regarding this person named Anarkali that for me after all these years, it doesn't really matter. I mean the makers did not say this is going to be a documentary, which needs to be accurate. They are making a commercial show using a mythical love story similar to all of those other love stories that we read like Laila-Majnu, Heer-Ranjha etc.I find the series to be a good time pass with good actors.I sincerely apologize if I hurt anyone. It was unintentional.

I am a huge historical period drama fan and details like these irk me.
Here are some serious issues with the plot- Anarkali Salim childhood romanceI am sure why they are doing this- Anarkali not being named Nadira but saifo. her coming from faras?There no historical record of Anarkali's real name just like there is no record of Salim 's mother who was refered as Mariam-U-Zain in historical record she ws hindu a rajput but her real name is not know was it Heera Harka or Jodha no one now when a queen's name is the other Anarakali was maid so Nadira or Saifu doesn't matter-Jodha being called Maharani, and calling Akbar maharajI don't think Jodha referring to Akbar as Maharaj is not wrong as Maharaj also menas kings of kings in Sanskrit just like Shahansha in urdu but her calling Jodha, Maharani no Mallika-E-Hind or Mariam-U-Zamani or Begum is unrealistic totally- Ruqaiya having a disliking for salim. Salima being the youngest wife? Salima was elder then Akbar by a few years. She was Bairam khan's widow. She was not at all negativeAs per history Salima was ruquiya s elder cousin sister. Jodha was Akbar's youngest chief wife not Salima it is said Ruquiya loved Salim as her on son so did Salima. Salim was cosidered Murad's Mirza's son Akbar's younger son. Salima also nutured Bariam Khan's son Rahim Khan-e-Khana as her own so she was lovable personal. i persume so was Ruquiya- Akbar referred to as Badshah? !! ! What the? Badshah? Akbar was shenshah. There is a huge difference between the two. A shehenshah rules over various badshahs.-where r mothers of the other kids?Murad and Daniyal mother are dead But daniyal was closely nurtured by Jodha and Murad was nurtured by Salima.- where is birbal? And other nauratans?They have not shown all the other Navratans till now but I expect them to do it soon as taht will introduce Jodha's family too and probably even Maan Bai Salim's first wife- why is akbar so soft?Probably by that time as father and king Akbar became softer-why is every other lady negative?I don't know why they are all the character even Hamida Begum (Akbar's Mother) she has always been portrayed as understanding and sensitive in movies as well as showsI can't believe makers of PV are the makers of this comedy show. So far it is very disappointing and the kids are heavily annoying. They could have just shown Salim's childhood in one epi for him being send off but no.Let's see if Sonarika and Shaheer's entry makes it any better
