Jalaal-Jodha: Thoda sa resham, tu humdum.

Rehna tu, hai jaisa tu
Thoda sa dard tu, thoda sukoon
Rehna tu, Hai jaisa tu
Dheema Dheema jhonka, Ya phir junoon
Thoda sa resham, tu hamdam
Thoda sa khurdura
Kabhi tu ad jaaye, Ya lad jaaye
Ya khushboo se bhara
Tujhe badalna na chahoon
Ratti bhar bhi sanam
Bina sajawat, milawat
Na zyaada na hi kam
Tuhje chaahon, jaisa hai tu...

This song , i feel , has always aptly described a man's feelings for a volatile woman with a candyfloss heart. That how a man accepts his ladylove as a complete package - with her vices and virtues - smiling and shaking his head at her naaz-nakhraas, airs and graces , arrogance , aggression, vanity. Then, getting amused and touched by the softening of her countenance , her shocking display of heart and her mysterious and twisted expression of feelings of a 'beloved'.

A man who doesn't really believe in taming the shrew - but loving the shrew as she is - Volatile. Unreasonable. Unpredictable. Flaming. Beautiful. Intense. Passionate. Surrendered in love.

This is how Jalaal sees Jodha AT THE MOMENT. This is how Jodha is AT THE MOMENT.

Ego, arrogance , aggression are not always vices or makings of a villain or a vamp. Sometimes, they are defence lines, fortress walls guarding an extremely vulnerable heart. Attitude trying to envelope and safeguard an innocence , a compassionate heart that is not fit to be exposed to the world.

Jodha is not a vamp. She is not a negative person. She is an emotionally dense and complicated woman who cannot ready herself to be unveiled to a man whom her preset mind is hating , but her wild and free heart is showing its tongue to her and trying to break free from her, and just race to Jalaal. We have always said that Jodha's "cheap", "disgusting", "intolerable" behaviour is her line of defence against Jalaal. The only line that will stop her from the self-embarrassment, self-betrayal of accepting a man like Jalaal who was always her definition of cruelty and inhumanity. Jodha is a woman of self-pride, arrogance and a dash of vanity. Her ego is fighting tooth and nail to stop her from surrendering to Jalaal. Any person who has had a close brush with a layered person will understand this dichotomy in her personality and her relationship with Jalaal.

But...in direct opposition to Jodha's volatile temper, mega ego and feminine vanity is her heart - soft, compassionate , loving and transparent. A heart that forces her to release her ego and be genuinely happy for Jalaal's fatherhood, write lovely poems and make gifts for his heir, a heart that forces her to admit that she is the great wall of China in this relationship and not Jalaal, a heart that makes Jodha see Jalaal in a new light at the Dargah, a heart that makes Jodha defend Jalaal fiercely to the aavaam and even her own family, a heart that goes running to Jalaal the moment pain falls on him, a heart that forces her to unleash her true care and sentiments to a dying Jalaal, a heart that makes her steal glances at Jalaal when he is not looking... A heart that is beyond Jodha's egocentric control and a heart that Jalaal has seen. A heart that has convinced Jalaal that Jodha, for all the chudailgiri and baaghingiri she does with him, will not let anything happen to him.

Today, it was that little , tortured-by-Jodha , heart looking up with a big smile. Cutting through all layers of Jodha's put-on arrogance , it drove Jodha to cook for Jalaal - the food that she doesn't even eat , but cooked for her attyaachaari hubby. It made itself visible enough in Jodha's eyes and gestures that Moti, Saleema and Hameeda can see it . It trespassed and trampled on Jodha's ego to smile at Jalaal and the man was truly touched. It stirred Jodha's gratitude, her solid but rarely visible change of heart into cauldrons of food. Reminding you that when someone goes out of their way and cooks for you , its a sign of care , affection and protection they feel for you.

Its easy to take people on face value. Its even easier to judge and pass sentences. But more often than , not, what you see is an ILLUSION. Its someone else behind that stained glass. Someone who doesn't want to be discovered. Someone who , for all the crazy reasons you can see, think, believe is just 'Philophobic'. Afraid of an unknown fear to love and being loved. Almost believing that they cannot let down their walls and let someone in - believing that loving someone and placing faith in someone is like giving a lamb to a tiger and hoping that the tiger will not eat it. And when the tiger is Jalaal...a woman like Jodha has to wear the hide of a tigress and protect her lamb self.

And in such circumstances and more, all hope lies with the heart. That it will snip all the fears, insecurities, vices , shake you up and make you believe that to love is to be vulnerable , but if you don't risk loving someone madly and passionately , you are never going to find your other missing half.

Its pretty simple.

Fabulous Post 👏 👏

Beautiful and apt words of a song for such a spectacular episode. 👍🏼

This is so true and I thank you for this...🤗

Thank you.😳... I believe in this because I have seen this happen closer home. Some people are really scared of getting hurt. They have some kind of premonition that exposing their true self will only bring betrayal.

Nobody wants to be emotionally rejected and abandoned.
