should ruqayia be given second chance? - Page 8

of course but only if she changes and stops insulting people and plotting behind back...see its not only Ruqu but other wives r also jhelofying each other and that was norm of those days..polygamy was normal then...so women moulded in that way..Ruqu is not only humiliating the other women but also others.

as I said, she definitely deserves a second chance only when she changes from within.😊

Mandy someone has just posted a statement made by Ruqs made in the initial epis to Jalal to his Q what she wanted to be friend / wife / empress to which it seems she replied - I want to be the girl for whom a friend loses his dil, a husband, his iman and a emperor, will bow his head in front of - This statement does not come from a woman in Love but from a woman who knows she has managed to garner the attention of an Emperor due to her intelligence and sexuality and is drunk with it. This statement, to my mind, totally proves my point!!! In my book a statement such as this does not show Love but then this is my opinion

Mandy Interesting points from all and from Adi as well.

So in conclusion, Ruqaiya was just not up to the mark as a woman of her times, let alone royal lady, who could understand and accept harem realities? Jodha, the newcomer, is very willing to know her place and not come between RuqLal? Jo is a sixteenth century queen and Ruqs is a sulking 21st century wife?/friend?

and apart from which century and what royal protocol of the times demanded, Ruqs is being portrayed in the show as a bad friend to Jalal and someone with such poor judgement, she sits with MA and chooses to swallow all that poison.

All I can see is that the show is mixed up. They intersperse modern sensibilities with Akbar's court and that is never going to work, except as a very confusing and badly executed fiction. We can't connect with characters when they swing 400 years back and forth. Jalal used to be so mysterious and unpredictable but now... 🤔 Jo used to be more 'modern' and an animal rights activist and feminist demanding pure love , but now...🤔 I think Ja and Jo have exchanged centuries and Jo is running a harem now. 😕

If it was someone else I would had felt pity for her and said deserves a second chance. The thing which has made many people not feel pity is the way she has being portrayed in the show. People has got tired of her ranting 24/7 on her Audha, tantrums, lack of respect to others, arrogance, screeching etc. Lets say it was Salima in her shoes then we all would had sympathise with her.
Furthermore, associating with MA has lowered herself even more into our eyes.

I am not saying that Jalal is wrong here.

But idnt he ignoring her completely now a days.

Understand he loves Jodha , but ruq too is his wife and very good friend,

All these years he gives importance to her and now if don't, will it not hurt her?

Ruq too has her own +ves and -ves. But she isn't bad.

We need to remember, Ruq is not just his friend but wife too.

If we keep ourselves in ruq position., Would we be fine?

Someone is taking Ruq position so she being insecure is very obvious - be it as wife or auda or friend.

She has been arrogant and doing stupid things. But its because she wants her Jalal back the ways he was. She wants their relation to be the way it was.

During fake pregnancy track.. Ruq slapped hosiyar when he suggested to kill the unborn kid. She didn't wanted to do it because it was Jalal's kid. Wha does this show. Dies thi talk about her auda. If her auda mattered everything to her, would she not have agreed to Hosiyar suggestion?

look ruku definitely has positive qualities & the best quality in her was she didnt wanted to harm jalal's child, despite she hated jodha. tht was ruku's genuine feelings. ruku definitely cares for jalal, but her prob is tht her hatred towards other wives. noone is perfect whether its jalal, jodha or ruku. but ruku's negatives r overshadowing her positives right now. jalal also cares for ruku & he will definitely wont ignore her bcoz of jodha. his ignorance is coming bcoz of ruku's behavior & the murti thing had really hurt jalal, bcoz he had believed tht ruku might be proud, but she can never break mughal rules.

she is being vulnerable and making mistakes..she is like one of those experimental frogs that try to break free before being knocked on their heads!..she will get one big blow after she finds out whats in jalal's heart..only then she might either settle with it or become more aggressive! in either case her soul will be lost because she has already lost her most precious possession!
