I dont even know where to start lamenting about my disgust. Like most here I dont recognize this shehenshah anymore. He is on the verge of becoming a not an enlightened but a confused Buddha. I could not believe how lightly he spoke of the bezatti today. There was a tone of sarcasm of course but really, was that dignified at all? Why would you even bring it up? what happened to quiet anger? He just told Ruqs he still remembers it all? And then he is still ogling her whenever he can. Their nok jhok makes me want to barf. This is the most unjustified unexplained unemotional 'epic' love story there ever was.
All that remains is for him to ask prem-biksha from Jodha Begum Mahaan. He has become a bikhaarii begging for her approval and acceptance.
As someone else pointed out, he says ' na jane hamari dil ki baat kaisi jaan leti hai' when she is the last person on earth who has any idea of his dil ki baat.
As for his 'wohi taap wohi gussa' to Ruqaiya, it is the joke of the century. I am even tired of abusing him.
Coming to Ruqs, I think she has one of the worst best friends fate could bestow on her. He has no respect for their relationship at all. I'm appalled by how badly he treats her. I still remember the scenes between Jalal and Ruqs when smiley was around. Where did that relationship go? Is he going to forsake everyone else for the sake of Jodha just like his mother?I cannot respect a man who dump the old the minute someone new walks in. If I were Ruqs I would dumped his sorry a** a long time ago (16th century equivalent of dumping) I guess everybody pays a price for how they treat others, so he is at the receiving end of the same sort of treatment from Jodha. And Ruqs swallows everything he throws her way just like Jalal does when it comes to Jodha. I so wish he would just stick to loving from afar and wait for her to come to him.
Jodha Begum Ben se jale to Mohabbat hai...Pur Ruqaiya Jodha se jale tho galath hai. Jodha cannot stand the first woman in Jalal's life after her, inspite of not being the wife he expects out of her. But Ruqaiya is expected to bear all the women in his life with saintly patience and not fume at Jodha . Even Jalal vents out his frustrations only on Ruqaiya and has not the spine to pull the lagaam of his Jodha Begum. If Jalal ever changes his equations with Ruqaiya for the sake of Jodha, it would be a bigger blow to his character, worse than the Tasneem track.
I dont think I have ever seen a historical figure mutilated quite so badly as EK has done of Akbar.
😭
As for Jodha, I am at a loss for words really. How shameless can one be? When you know you cannot be the wife your husband desperately needs you to be how can you constantly keep taking and taking from him? If I couldnt return the love my husband felt for me I would be overcome with guilt. At the least I would stay away from his family, unable to meet their eyes for the injustice I mete out to their son even if love is an uncontrollable reaction. I would at least wonder why I cant return his love. I would never expect more sons from his family to marry into mine in case they face the same fate. Shouldnt that at least prompt her to talk to Shivani? She is not alien to the concept of marrying for love. She almost had it with surya whats- his- name and she saw it between Sukanya and spineless prince. She herself said she cannot give herself to any man she doesn't love and mocked Jalal's love as SKL. Then why does she not ask Shivani if she can bring herself to one day love that man? Does she not realize it would be unfair to HM if he has to bear the same fate as Jalal? I dont get how highly principled Jodha cannot see this. She has ethics and morals for everyone else but not for self. I am fed up. And is Shivani to place the same conditions as her before marriage too about religion and consummation and everything else in between?
👍🏼
To Jodha her marriage has only been about her ideals and expectations. His can go to hell. As Ariel said, if she can't reciprocate, she has no right to call herself 'Shahenshah Jalalluddin ki Begum' whenever it suits her purpose and feel for the loss of position... shall we call it audha... position on Jalal's left on the throne. And Hamida and even Jalal are overwhelmed by Jodha's wearing Mughal attire. As though it is a great honour bestowed by her. She actually said to HB yesterday that it is her farz as a begum of Mughal Khaandaan. Does her farz end there? She was not wearing the Mughal attire for any other function so far. Wasn't she Mughal Khaandaan ki bahu all these days?
She will only fulfil as much duty and respect as much sentiments of her Ammijaan as will suit her convenience. Though initially hesitant, she will consent to wear a Mughal attire, she will consent to have her birthday celebrated grandly. Going by her own standards of the thunderstorm night, why didn't she stomp her royal foot into Agra's chilled air and do a satyagraha under a tree in the courtyard of the palace and refuse her b'day celebrations then? She was still grina-ing Jalal at that time. Hasn't her Ammijaan asked her to make up with and try to overcome differences with Jalal? But she has never taken a single step in this direction. She only tangles things and leaves more for Jalal to handle.
And the Ameris, dont they want their daughter married off from their own kingdom? What happened to not eating in the daughters house? Now the whole khandhaan camps for days on end at Agra. And Jalal has to get all the daughter married too! Talk about mooching.
Beti ki ghar ki paanio nahin piyenge.😆😆.Doosri beti ki shaadi mein Damaad se qila lenge.( Agreed Jalal gave the fort. But Jalal is the one who initially offered the paani too.) Teesri beti ki shaadi mein damaad ke ghar mein poora parivaar jamkar bait jayega. Lekin beti hamesha damaad ko prick karthi rahegi!😡
