- How pompous this sounds!!! I am srry if I sound rude but I do not believe that any person can "Turn" another into anything and I do not believe anyone can teach another anything. As the Mother (Mother Mira) said - We are all born knowing everything, all we need to do is seek it. And my belief is that we change becoz we want to for ourselves.
So in my book Jodha is the doorway for Akbar to find his 'Self', his 'Soul'. And not to make Jalal into an Akbar. No one can do that. Only Akbar could do it - Jodha was the opportunity that the Universe gave him, which he took with both hands.
Thinking of Jodha being the one who changes Jalal/Akbar may sound feminist but in my book it is highly self glorifying of womanhood. And as a woman, I would rather be a liberal, than fall into the pit of self glorification.
