I'm posting a sum of what I've listed in other places...
As many others, I too loved the episode ...Empathy, tenderness and support was the base of it! With dashes of drama and plotting, of course!LOVED JALALLOVED JODHALOVED THEIR RELATIONSHIP!I liked the balance between Jodha and jalal today ...he remained embroiled in matters of the state and she in matters of the harem...and yet both were there for each other at the right times!Loved Jalal's supportive stance for Jodha at different points - neither overt nor subtle- just right...he warned Jodha about Ruqs today too...so, me thinks he's just alerting one wife to the others' kaabiliyat like a coach would before a tense match! With Ruqs he does it with a smirk and with Jo he dons a frown!Seen Jalal in many a kashmakash and Jo maarg-darshing him...today Jo in kashmakash and jalal marg darshing her...She stumbles he catches her, he stumbles she catches him...his family members wrong her, he stands by her...her family members wrong him, she stands by him! I loved how he let her be and how she let him be today...very matured dialogues, discussions and all their statements befit their statuses!No one over-shadowed the other...today was the episode epic journeys are made of (no, not love stories...but, journeys yes!)THE THRILLSThe sujamal angle made it very thrilling, Jodha's acting (swallowing her grief) in that scene was stupendous as was Jalal's angry emotional turmoil after having lost his cousins. Btw, how sexy did he look touching the blade of his sword as he questioned her? 😛And the sharif, tabassum angle is also quite thrilling as Abhay pointed out! 😃THE KID ISSUEThe kid issue is not going to create problems for her...it's a minor fault...jalal has overlooked bigger things...don't worry about the 'kid' thingy...Her expressions were more like the kid who'd just hidden a bar of chocolate...not one who'd committed a sin...And I liked watching Jo do these little shaitaaniyaan...breaking laws and all...just makes her more human! Jalal is only gonna love her more for it!P.S.That tender hand-on-shoulder in front of taraazu was wow...Watching her nearly in anguish, he places his hand on her shoulder...She watches his hand and gets puzzled momentarily, but he thinks nothing of it...his expressions are 'Go for it girl, you have it in you! Don't doubt yourself...'😃
just loved it lashy..its very well balanced epi..again gud n better than daily ones...
