Jodha Akbar 171: On the road to Camelot. - Page 22

Do you young ladies remember the tale of Laila and Majnu? When Majnu was whipped, the red weals appeared across Laila's back as well.

Jalal and Jodha are not quite at this level of connectedness yet, but they are working towards it.

While we are on this topic, I do not care what anyone else feels, but I love this Seth-Sethani gig, right down to the chapati making without a belan. And the way Jodha sits next to Jalal on that charpoy, one leg bent at the knee and the other folded under her, proferring the rotis and the water. Exactly how a farmer's wife sits down next to her husband in the field and produces his lunch. And watches with proprietary pleasure as he eats it.

How else would we have ever got such charming domestic scenes? They are like a series of stepping stones for Jalal and Jodha to get across a morass of misunderstandings, doubts, lack of faith, and all the malevolent attentions of several denizens of the Agra palace. And reach the other shore, to a genuinely happy togetherness.

Okay, the scene you concocted was beyond funny. Jodha is one great bashan giver. I admire the speed at which she conjures up bashans and comeback.

What you said is unfortunately true. Jalal has become like an overstuffed teddy bear. First he was like a thin rice grain. Now he has become like a puffed rice grain like in bhel.

I don't know what is going to happen of Jalal tied there like Veeru in Sholay. I cannot imagine Jodha dancing like Basanti on 'Jab tak hai jaan'. But I surely can imagine her going on rant like 'Jab tak hai jaan hum bashan denge'. She would be thrashing the daroga with her words in case he thrashes Jalal

Brilliant post, ma'am!

look we can criticize either of them but at the end of the day all 3 r gud human beings with all their guds & bads. as i said ruku genuinely cared for jalal's baby when hoshiyar told her to kill it. prob is tht just like CVs deliberately showed jalal as a dumb guy, without any logic, few things r also shown for ruku without any proper logic. as i said inconsistencies can be cut down. prob is tht audience is made to believe tht ruku is "kabab mein haddi", but the point is jalal, ruku, jodha r in the same family & at the end of the day all 3 have to stay together happily. so i feel all 3 have to work together to get out of this situation. jalal actually loves both, in diff. ways of course. so i think CVs shouldnt bring ruku down to a cruel person, so tht they can show jalal parting his ways from ruku, & completely dedicates himself to jo. jalal-jodha relationship also had their probs, so even if jalal-ruku relationship runs through probs, the imp. of the relationship shouldnt be lost.

***I agree, but how many of the audience, will be ready to accept kabab mein haddi?? So I think that is the reason they are going as per audience choice as well. We can only hope that, they don't put her so down that, there is no chance for her to come back.

Great analysis ma'am! I loved your comic scenario! Who isn't scared of our beloved Jodha's tirades? When she starts, it's like standing next to a speeding train.

Another scenario which can happen is his refusal to pay up even after the thrashing n the daroga fearing a prison death releases him and warns jodha that he spared her husband's life so that she stays mum, little realizing that whom he is dealing with.
Jo nursing jalal back has happened before but this time in addition to the kartavya there will also be TLC from her side.
Well this will mean jalal has to hv a speedy recovery in order to complete the journey n to abolish the law n romance jo.
Poor fellow he seems to have a lot in his plate.

I loved ur post especially jo's need to know that jalal is illiterate and her assumption that all wrong done by the mughal foj was not due to jalal.

Let us see what happens today

Btw, hi Aunty, I'm yet to read your last 3 posts, I guess? But I'm sure they're wonderfully written.😳
