Divya, I was so upset with Thursday's episode but I just need a good scene from Jalal to forget it. And his Swordfight and cute smile did that today ,, one smile is all i need i guess 😛Without much ado, here is the take 5 for today's episode:
(1) Jalal looking at Jodha from afar but yet so close to her: liked the first scene primarily because it is very rare to see Jalal defend Jodha in front of MA especially during the Ben track; three things I liked:
I loved this scene ... He was just not able to take his eyes off her... Even while speaking to MA, he was looking at her...
- His appreciation of Jodha focusing on her work without jashn
- Countering MA's comparison of Jodha to Ruqs who always had time for him (not true! There were many times Jalal had to wait for Ruqs to deal with harem matters)
Oh really, didnt Ruq made Jalal wait anytime.. MA your memory is lost. You have scolded her many times as she makes Jalal wait.
You know what, he knows MA very well now. He very well knows MA doesnt like him getting close to Jodha. So good he gave back to her ... thought he genuinely meant about what he said.. about hard working people..
Divya, didnt it also mean to MA, that she is not doing any work 😆
- Jalal's blush when MA said he has changed with our signature BGM 😳
Awww.. it was so cute... he cant stop blushing
(2) Ruqs so close to Jalal physically but not emotionally: A complete contrast to the scene above, Ruqs was pretty much gluing herself to Jalal to his utter discomfort. He seemed lost and far away the whole time; three things I liked:
He just didnt like her there at all.. Poor guy was expecting Jodha. though he was talking to her, he was so lost and disinterested ..
- Jalal immediately identified that Ruqs gave up the title so she will be free and b with him while keeping Jodha busy- so much for Ruq's uber-sophisticated chaal!😉
Clever Shehenshah, but it just takes a break at times
- His counter that he was still busy ... Imagine , would he ever say that to Jodha? He is never busy for Jodha- like in the precap.
all his free time is only for Amer ki Mirchi
- His sarcastic laugh when Ruqs said he was more important that her audha- I guess CVs thought they could be a little funny 😆
He has started to realise the real face of Ruq and MA.. soon there places will be shown
(3) Swordfighting: Oh can Jalal (Rajat) use his sword! It was awesome though it lasted 20 seconds. The intensity! And the best part, I guessed he would be swordfighting seeing his outfit yesterday. Wow, sometimes, I do guess it right! I am still 😳
I am not sure how many times i would watch it in the weekend.. Why wont they show his swordfight scene atleast once in a week.. Are we asking for more.Divya, i so want the sword practice with Jodha again. Will we ever get it again?(4) Jodha's worry of missing Jalal and he might misunderstand her and the Akdha scene: Again a sign that it will be very difficult to create a MU between these two, Jodha goes and apologizes immediately and loved her worry at having missed him. For Jodha, this is immense progress! Liked overall the nok jhok and conversation. I liked how Jalal hesitantly added shohar to friend, but unfortunately, Jodha clinged to the friend! This epic love story will obviously be slow ... Hopefully, something happens in the jashn to fast forward. 😊
She doesnt want to loose any chance of meeting her pati 
It was a very cute scene. Her concern for Jalal. Just loved thier nok-jok and conversation here. Jalal was a treat to watch when he hesitantly said dost and shohar.. and did you see Jodha.. she was so eagar to hear shohar...
Yes, it would have been nice if Jodha said Patni ke nate instead of dost. I feel very uncomfortable when they use dost for thier relation.
(5) Precap: Note the Jodha's mahanta of abolishing slavery did not make the list, what is new in that? I liked the precap for two reasons:
- Jalal always makes time for Jodha unlike Ruqs
- As harem warden, Jodha will spend more time with Jalal - so much for Ruqs plan. Ruqs wouldn't know because she wanted to rule the harem herself without Jalal's interference.
I knew this would happen... Jodha -Jalal spending more time together after her responsibility. When she didnt have any work, she used to always run to him with complaints and issues. Now that she has work, how can we expect her to not go to him to problems/issues/advice/complaint... What i liked about Precap was MA faceoff... Didnt you nitice they way she asked permission to take jalal from her. And he realised something is there .. I am enjoying this... Jashn is next week and Sujamal looks like he is going to stay around... Let's the jashn begin!
I am guessing three questions will rule the forum this weekend:
(1) What is the major event that will happen in Jashn? Will it help Akdha or hurt it?
(2) Why is Sujamal in a woman's guise?
(3) Will Jodha, Akbar, and Ruqs go on another trip?
Just kidding. So, what were your thoughts on the episode?
