Hi.
First, A very Happy New Year to all my friends here..😊
Mansi, as usual, another NICE analysis.
Just trying my hand for the first time.
The Pehlwaan and the "AWESOME" Pahelwaani!
a.
What...?..?...What was the imported pehalwan of kabul trying to do in the Mughal Darbar...Was he delivering dialogues😲 or trying to daraofying the courtiers there .?😆?...More of shouting and screeching...Sach mein this 'import' is very bahadur...Jaan hateli par rakh ke aaya tha ye BAHUDUR...??...Abul Mali ke darbar mein aise hi vyavhar karte ho...?.Manners nahi sikhae usne..🤢.?...Etiquettes.😕...
b.
I liked your following lines-->" Suddenly(yes, totally out of blue...) there appeared from the lurking shadows a larkaro😆fying pehalwan itching to do malyudh with some able-bodied young men (Agra mein able-bodied men ka sukha ho gaya hai, tabhi to Adham ji jail se riha honge..😆)from the Sultanate."
c.
BTW, we could have a better pehalwan. Even, Adham will look a BETTER pehalwan than this one, in that costume with 'tel-maalish'.
d.
" Maham instantly thought of her incarcerated son Adham being a good candidate😆 and hoped that if she made much of this pehlwan and his lalkaar, Jalal would be "forced" to let Adham out of his cage to fight, and then maybe if Adham won the fight, he would be set free as an "award" for saving the face of the Sultanate. "
😆..BTW, Hats off to Maham.👏.Her IQ is better than anyone else..⭐️..She makes a plan, and amazingly her every plan works...
Also, Why only Adham...as if the entire Sultanate, ran dry of pahalwans🤢 and ONLY the MACHO MAN Adham khan, could fight with this so-called pahalwan... NON-SENSE..
Highlight of this section-> Lady pehlwaan of the Sultanate (i.e. Maham)🤣
The Ladies Sabha summons the Shahenshah! (reminded me of the kitchen cabinet of the US Parliament.😆.)
Jalal did not listen to advice of Hamida.😡😡 It was fine but...😕...But, the way in which he rejected it was not soothing. But, i fear that this may be a norm now😲. The reason i am feeling this is that, Jalal listened to MA till the time, she did not die. May be CV's are trying to portray this, that she is taking precedence over HB. But could have been in a more dignified manner. 😳.
Jo sided with HB. Ruqu with MA. It is also theek thaak affair...Accepted..
Buttt...😲...Someone tell me, am i dreaming or is it a shock😲 for me. that...Benz "babes"😎, chipping in to give her piece of mind to Jalal...😆...🤣...The imperial seraglio of Agra, giving advice is OK, but the 'baandi'😲, a li'l correction, i mean the "khaas⭐️baandi", the "koh-i-noor😆" of Shahenshah, giving FREE OF COST advice to Jalal..🤣..What is this...bhai..??...
Then, i went around 200 years forward, in history 😆, to the court of The famous ALL IN ONE 🤪and the ONLY ONE, our DEAR ONE, the colorful Mughal Emperor Muhammed Shah 'Rangila' . Someone tell them, this is Jalal's court..😆...not the Rangila court...
Scenes at the Diwan-e-Khas! (correct it..should be..Ramlila Maidan...😆)
Said before also...But the following points in bold are something to ponder on.
(Notice: Mansingh was shown four times?) A suddenly all-bristling Jalal swung into counter lalkaar.
Am i going to get back the same Jalal back, who said --> Jab hum Shamsheer chalate hain, to chattan bhi raasta deti hai..
And, that same khauff--> uski shamsheer hawayoon ko kaat sakti hai..
BTW, your idea about Man Singh...🤣 ...fighting with pehalwan...Compare their sizes...😆..The size of rib-cage of our pahelwan is more than Man Singh's TOTAL BODY size..🤣
The Hakim Mirza-Atga talks on Mali!
More words were exchanged between Hakim Mirza and Atga on the rottenness of Abul Mali as Hakim Mirza confessed he was in Agra only to warn and defend Jalal against Abul Mali, and Atga should be more careful of insiders than outsiders right now! Hakim Mirza also seemed to think Maqsood'd death (the sipahi) by the snake bite on the lips was a bit too strange to swallow. From all this I deduce that even if Hakim Mirza seems to be on Jalal's side for the time being against Abul Mali, history shows that Hakim Mirza's own mother gave her daughter in marriage to Abul Mali as she wanted to support anyone against Jalal. So my watchful eye is still on Hakim Mirza to see if he's using a "fake-loyalty" strategy to lull Jalal against his own impending treachery!
@bold...i am also feeling same...😕
Jalal-Jodha talks - more banter, less clarity!
Okay now I'll come to the meatiest part of the episode - or rather the only part that interests us - the Jodha-Jalal talks.👍🏼 Jodha, having heard from Moti that Jalal has accepted the lalkaar comes to warn Jalal against falling for such ruses from unknown men who may well be enemy agents. Jalal instead starts insisting she attend the malyudh, which she has no taste for. Then she says "I thought you wanted only your "khas" ones" to attend? You send me out of Tansen's conncert but invite me here?" He takes umbrage at the word "khas" and says "You too are one of my khas-begums.😆.🤣..(jalal..?? Khas begum ko itna pareshan karte ho...Normal begum ne kuch kia hota to kya karte...??😆) But I suppose you are still jealous of Benazir?"(seems, he is still in leg-pulling mode..😉) Then he claps his hands to produce an award medal/pendant for the winner (jodha must be thinking of that baju-band..😆..) of the malyudh and says Jodha must hand it to the winnner. Jodha says "Surely this was not your idea?" Jalal falls back on his age-old excuse "No it was Hamida's idea!" 😆(as usual..!)
OK...Another One...
Did u notice, we've got a FEW NEW Begums.😉.. Everytime, we get new faces..Sometimes, the baandis are dressed as begums and sometimes the painter..(remember..?😆?)...
sorry...if i hurt any fan...but i wrote whatever came in my mind...😆
I typed a very nice answer..
Missed it....Typed again..But could not type as good as that one...
