Jodha Akbar 66: The curate's egg - Page 3

Shyamala:

Yes he said hopes & not that he knows or even thinks.

Hey Mallika-E- Bhais, i love your user name.😆 it makes me laugh every time you post something😆 . how did you came with that name??

Very nice analysis aunty!!!👍🏼 As for this track...I have nothing to say save...I am FED UP...

First 👏👏

You seem quiet exasperated with the Bharmal-Jalal talk where Bharmal took full advantage of his age and his relation to give an earful to the Shahanshah 😉... Jodha has said it, Jalu's minister has done it, Ruku does it all the time - so why would Bharmal miss all the fun?😆

As far as EK's characters are concerned in JA, we better not expect the creatives to make the thought pattern of the characters to be of 16th century era. The dialogue, behavior, ideology, thought patterns of almost all the characters are very much contemporary. I hope you get what I mean ⭐️

In yesterday's scene too, EK has not shown how a Emperor of 16th century, no matter how humble and gentle he is, would behave with his FIL because you have rightly pointed out that the Emperor would have definitely retaliated in some way.

Instead EK has shown how a SIL should behave in front of FIL. 😉

It has been declared in the very beginning that the conversation would be between SIL and FIL and won't be a emperor meeting his king.

So Jalal kept his mouth shut and did rightly so because - a) Bharmal was elder to him in age and in relation and as per our custom, it is not right to argue with elders when they are giving advice b) Jalal understood that Bharmal is giving the lecture with good intention.😃👍🏼

DILs are always expected to be respectful towards in-laws, listen to their advices, give importance to their wishes, and most importantly not to argue with them in the slightest pretext. Similarly, EK has shown how SILs should behave when they have to hear the lecture from his sasur. 😎

Actually Bharmal did have a point - the Emperor had made one grievous error by declaring the punishment of the Ameri clan without even giving them one chance to prove their innocence. 👎🏼

Had not HB intervened, Maynavati would have been performing shraddh of her husband and children by this time.


I am going slightly off-topic here.
If we look at the whole scenario, then there was such concrete proof against the Ameris that Jalal had to take some action and giving 10 days to the Ameri people to collect proof was not any solution because they were under nazarband.

How could they have collected proof when they can't move anywhere. Asking their soldiers or ministers who came with them ( i assume the royal family of Amer come with their own set of inmates and soliders) was not a practical solution either.

The only thing they could have done but didn't do is to argue with the emperor in the court like a shrewd defence lawyer.🤢

They had to question the emperor about their motive, had to remind Jalal that he himself gave the kesar to Ruku and there are too many question marks which need to be resolved. All these questions could have raised doubt's in Jalal's mind. Perhaps they expected the lawyer to turn up and hence stood like wooden trees in the court. 😕😡


Coming back to yesterday's episode, like sun29 I am still scratching my head about Jodha's intelligence. Sach mein, iss dumbness ka kya nam doo? 😲

Thank you, Mythili.

Bharmal was insufferable, and so was Jalal in how far he put up with it. Do see my response on Mansi's thread on this chapter,

For God's sake, what's going on?at

It is very vehement, but you will find it interesting. It touches on the Jalal-Badiammi angle and a lot more, mostly about Bharmal, where I share your views in toto.

I do not think he was against his mother being close to Jodha at the stage when he himself was softening towards her, after the poem, in particular. Now it is a bit different, but then again, Jalal does not care much for his mother anyway.

Shyamala Aunty
