But Ela dear, Jodha herself no longer has the guts to stand by her truth, does she? Why does she apologise at all? She could have stuck to her guns; Jalal was not angry with her as he sent her off, he looked merely tired. So it is not as if he would have left her behind and Amer would not have wanted to keep her. Sukanya's marriage was in any case kaput. So she need not have caved in and gone thru all that spiel, need she?
But still she does it, and not because she thinks that Jalal will yield; she is reconciled by then to his not yielding. Then why does she bend so much, and present herself, with what degree of sincerity is a variable, as I had mentioned in my post, but bend to near breaking point for one so staunch and upright in support of the truth till now?
It is because she is tired of being on the losing side, and she realises that while Hamida Banu might back her unreservedly, she does not matter at all at the practical level. If she, Jodha, does not gain some traction with the one person who matters, Jalal, and does not neutralise, as much as possible, her main antagonist, Mahaam, she will never get anywhere or have any influence that she can eventually use for promoting 'good'.
If a very strong, tough cookie like Jodha can cave in like this, what can you expect of Bakshi Banu, who is a scaredy cat at all times and is terrified of her husband and for her husband? I do not admire her, but she is what she is, and it is no use complaining about her. Very few women, even those much braver than Bakshi Banu, would confess to things that would sent their husbands to their death just for the sake of the 'truth' . Not even 1 in 100.
The fact is that if Jodha had cared for her marriage from the beginning, she would have been far more diplomatic and cautious at all times. Now, I am very pleased to see that she is becoming more street smart and, hopefully, somewhat devious as well. I was delighted with her OTT display of unbridled repentance yesternight, and was besides myself with laughter as she fell on Mahaam's neck and called her Badiammi😉. I applauded her liberally, and I am sure she is going to be much more interesting from now on.
I have high hopes that once she is sure that Sukanya is well protected, she will not crib and preach about the retaking of Ratanpur from the Rat King. That will really mark her coming of age.

Shyamala in response to your comment to lashy about Jodha not caring for her marriage as BB does...I am sorry...I cann't bring myself to praise a spineless woman like BB...Jodha brought BB as she had no other option and she thought that BB will have guts to stand for the truth just like Jodha...
