But Ela, I also felt that it was necessary somehow for him to speak to her in that way, because the longer he tried to soft-pedal the issue, the longer she will be in that state of non-acceptance of anyone else in his life! She needed to grow up some time, and better this shock comes now than later?
Did you see she is not just jealous of Jodha but also of Salima after he consulted her? She cannot be like this in a polygamous marriage, she has to be able to accept the score, na?
I feel its like this family where the first child is unable to accept the second or third child in the family. The parents will at first try to understand, but then they have to be firm at some point or that first child will never accept the siblings!

Mansi yesterday episode was beautiful and the best after fake pregnancy track.

I feel bad for Ruqu, as still now she is the winning every competition against other begums, but now she lost to Jodha after the chess competition that to in Darbar itself. That too Jalaal put jodha gift before announced to come and sit beside him. I can understand Ruqu, as beforew only Jalaal, hamida and everyone was so mesmirised to see Jalaal in that outfit. I can also understand Jodha gift has awaken his innersoul, he reflected his thoughts before Darbar people.

But one thing Jalaal can praise the gift by jodha,and declare it as best gift, but could have called both Jodha and Ruqu to sit with him, as both their gifts gave him happiness. Just like Hamida said" One has increased the shaan "while the " other increased the Maan".

JJ soul talk is wonderful. Jodha at the beginning episode only said to her father that "A King who rules the heart of people will live for longer years ". So Jodha that time knows wants her husband to rule the hearts of the people. She did the same with Jalaal and showed him the route. When he got that affection, belessings and love from his people, the sleeping heart arosed and wished and prayed that Jodha give him many more gifts like this life long.

Both are overwhelmed shed happy tears and satisfaction reflected in their eyes. The journey has started and both don't know they desitiny is they are SOULMATES.

Ruqu still has doubts, as how much JJ relationship changed, where Jalaal hated her and wants to cut her wings, now is only saying she is friend and she started this journey and wants her to accept the fact now both JJ have to walk with him lifelong. Ruqu wll try everything to get back her Jalaal as Ruqu will surely see the change of feelings between JJ and you have Maham and Hoshiyaar to more provocate her.

Yes indeed, this Ruq is now completely vulnerable to the negative persuasions of maham. So we have to see if she leans that way or stays loyal to Jalal even if he seems rude to her!

Mansi , jaya, Ela, riyaa, abie10..., sangeetha


Damn ... you guys are too fast , it is so hard to catch up with you... common on after reading 15 page post in almost over than an hour iam exhausted and am cursing the fact tht iam not well... and there fore not able to catch up with you ... mein hameesha peeche reh jaati hoon 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭UFF ... Sigh !!!! now i feel good ...


Okay about the episode , i too felt that when jalal compared the gift was a bit on the face , but it was his honest opinion for sure and may be the situation he was in was responsible for the same. If he was in private he would have handled the issue better...


Firstly , he had not seen ruqu since whole day and when he faced her in court he was already overwhelmed with her gift so he could not stop but declare her the best and then again same situation arose again with jodha's gift , he was again flooded with emotions so he chose to be true to his feelings...

@jaya , he explained that he went out with jodha and even displayed her gift to one and all in the sabha . I get your point about your daughter but then again we are saying this from the beginning that ruku has not grown up so she behaves that way ... but i also don't buy your point of view as far as her upbringing is concerned ... she does not want to share jalal at any cost be it with his praja too... There are other ladies in the same mughal household like salima , hamida and jiji anga , gulbadan . They are all very different and i can say tht they are alike in their thought process as far as the shenshah is concerned but why not ruku ... Even MA understands tht jalal needs a wife so why can't ruqu , it is not because of the atmosphere she has been brought up in , it is the fact tht she chose not to evolve for she liked the way she was till now and when the tides have turned she is caught all alone int he path of change , no one else is getting affected by the change in jalal's life ... (exceptions excluded )...


So all in all i would say it is the game of ideology and not also taking away wat ELA pointed out tht jalal is rude at times but i have also been able to fathom reasons for his behavior , the day i won't be able to , i would declare that his actions are deliberate.

She will be loyal towards Jalaal, but not towards Jodha. May be Ruqu will feel that it's attraction as JJ still didn't consummate. Even when others say that JJ are in love which they themselves don't know, but Ruqu may be in denial and think it's just physical attraction, which is not deep in their hearts. In this battle to win over Jodha and get her Jalaal, she may do some thing foolish which will make Jalaal broken, then she might starts realising and accept Jodha.

If developed properly Ruqu character will have so much scope and lots of emotions till now she didn't feel from Jalaal or any other begum.

Brillliant, brilliant, brilliant! That has hit the nail on the head for me. Ruq has chosen not to evolve because she likes the way she has been having sole power till now! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I feel its like this family where the first child is unable to accept the second or third child in the family. The parents will at first try to understand, but then they have to be firm at some point or that first child will never accept the siblings!

As you rightly said, it is like the first child syndrome only. When you have pampered your first child for long years ( 3-7) as the sole attraction of your attention and love, all of a sudden you dump the child for your second child and shower all you love on that, the first child will ultimately feel jealous of the second child though it is not the second childs mistake. The first child will end up hurt the second child in the absence of the parents and will play innocent. If you don't prepare the childs mind to welcome the forthcoming child, the result willbe disaster. The child might grow agrressive or go introvert.
Just imagine while a mother expecting her second child, either th efather or mother keeps teasing the child or provoking the child in the name of coming child how will the first child develop the feelings for the second child or t be more precise if the mother was not ready for the second child (content with the first) and by force from family plan forthe second, she will start filling the childs mind with all her hatred for the second child least she would have thought that everything was recorded in the childs mind non-erasable disk and as the pregnancy grows, teh mother will start feeling for her second child as well and expect the first child to accept the new comer open heartedly.
Jalal did the same thing with Ruqu. He made her the competiter of Jodha by provoking her to take up Chess game to humiliate Jodha, He gave mansabdari to Jodha's brothers and claimed that he did it to watch them bow to him (when Ruqu asked for the reason), he had told her he had married Jodha to avenge his revenge on Jodha. So what do we expect Ruqaiya to feel than what she feels now, betreyed by her husband / friend who is going back on his promises.
Had he told her that he married jodha as he was attracted to her ( in the initial days only), she would ahve come to terms with that only. She share a cordiel relationship with Salima Begum and that is teh example that she can still care and respect people.

I'm very sorry if my post upsets anyone because that is truly not my intenion, but I sincerely cannot understand all this sympathy for ruku coz jalal said jodha's gift is better than ruks:
1. its not a competition - its gift giving, the point is in giving the gift whole heartedly and not in wanting your gift to be the best;
2. how is saying "ruks gift is the best gift ever" any different from saying "jodha's gift is better than even ruks"? Obviously nobody had any issues with Jalal's first declaration and how that statement may have hurt all others who had given him a gift that day, including his mom and his other wife, Salima.
3. its time the spoilt little rich girl grew up - Ruks needs to realise the world doesn't revolve around the harem in agra and jalal's world does not revolve around her
granted jalal could have been more diplomatic but he would probably think that as being unfair to jodha since he had no qualms about declaring ruks' gift's worth to him, it would be wrong to not acknowledge, also in public, jodha's gift's value to him.
Nothing that happened yesterday warranted ruks' tantrum, certainly not to the scale as portrayed. i am merely more convinced that I pity her her bad upbringing but I dislike her all the same

Ela , what i feel here is that he was firm and honest with her and was trying to show her the reality ...he was not rude ...he gave her an example of two sides of river and asked her to co-exist with jodha and also told her in advance his current state of mind , even before she asked her and then again when she inquired that would this reduce her importance in his life , he reassured her again and asked her to take care ...

If he would have been rude he would not be standing so close and even kissed her , see being rude or angry are very strong emotions and mostly us, humans would have in it our eyes before voicing it , its like the sound of thunder that we hear before the lightening itself ... look at jalal's yes closely in tht scene , he was very honest and truthful and concerned about her ...

And also look into ruqu eyes , you would find glimpse of jealousy and fear , which clearly state tht she did not buy his assurance .
