Amazing post
thank u

Now that is a rare compliment, and it is duly appreciated. I write, firstly, because I enjoy this new hobby, and then for those like you who enjoy my writing as I do when it turns out just right. I never know how it will pan out when I start, so I am always appreciative of and grateful for the kind of reassurance you provided today.

Yes, I never have any problems about acknowledging when I have gone wrong, as in this case. I was afraid that there would an endless series of silly conflicts and no real maturing of the relationship; the aarti ki thali stuff is charming, but it gets them nowhere in real terms, and the edginess between then remains.

Yesterday, I was surprised at how imaginative the writers had been; they have at one go opened up this new window and let a fresh breeze blow thru. Things will never be the same again between them, for the trust factor has begun to take root, based on her genuine caring for his child and his recognition of it.

As for my not being a cynic, that too is a compliment. But after 38 years as a professional diplomat, a dose of healthy cynicism is vital. However, I am not of the hardboiled variety, in that I can recognise genuine goodness when I see it, and I value it as it should be valued.

As for your reverting to hibernation mode, we shall see what we shall see!😉

Hi. I hv been reading ur posts for a week now and after watching last night's episode , my first thought was , " now let's see shyamala B. cowsik literally do a double take on this".😆. Your first line of your post today had me gloating.

It's not that I don't post in IF , well maybe once in eons, but certain episodes or posts compel lazy bummers like me to break the hibernation mode . Your posts are a literary delight and u are anything but a cynic. I refuse to believe that.

Now back to sleep mode. .🥱

Thank you, Sumu, that is very sweet of you!

It was not clear why Mahaam was yelling at Adham, probably because he was blind drunk and insisting that the jashn was to celebrate his exploits in Mathura. She wants him to understand the danger he is in from Ruqaiya, who knows that it was he in the harem chasing after Motibai. She is a witch, but I do feel for her, saddled with this uncontrollable dolt of a son.

u knw i always wait for it!!
I loved most of the poem!!
The genuinity of jodha's happiness at the situation was... Touching
especialy the enthusiasm n eagrns with which she exPlaind the significance of the spoon!!
Realy thankful to the CV's to Show Jalal not resentful to Jodha at lest in one episode!!
And Ruqaiya!!!
well she's Ruqaiya the 'vanity bag' nd way beyond My undrstanding.

P.S plz c my comnt at post52

P.ps I missed the part of Maham anga ripping Adham's head 🤣
lol!
but Y was she shouting??

That is a lovely song, Suvi. From which film is it? No one uses such delicate lyrics any more; it is all frightful stuff like main garden garden ho gaya, from some terrible picture that I instantly decided to boycott!

On the exquisite Jodha-Jalal scene at the end, no amount of appreciation would be enough. But your take is almost adequate!

Thanks a ton, aunty...😊

Jalal's sleepless night reminded me of an old song 'yaad agar Woh aaye...aise kati tanhai...soone shehar mein jaise, bajne lagi shehnai'...my love for classics...

P.S.- I read you reply to @sun...you have correctly pointed out...when the 'old' ruk used to shower compliments he instantly used to ask what she wants??till now, all his relationships worked on barter system...even in the meena bazar scene...ruk capitalised on jalal's psyche of 'jalal wants, jalal takes'...

Diksha,

What a clever riff on what Jalal says about that poem! I am very pleased, and yes, it is true ki hum dil se likte hain, aur aap jaison ke liye likte hain,

Shyamala Aunty.

thanks, aunty

Thanks a lot for liking this post, Pallavi my dear.

As for the rest, I agree in toto with your comments, my dear. As for why Ruqaiya reacts the way she does to Jodha and her gift, do see my response to Mythili above and tell me if you agree with it.

Logically, after all that shindy about Moti, one would expect Adham Khan to avoid her like the plague, but he is so uncontrollable that one never knows and so she should, as you say, be careful.

Shyamala Aunty

i comletely agree with your take on Ruqaiyaa in mythili's post..I am really a fan now of your insightful thoughts..:-)
