Hi , Divya. Another wonderful post 😊 . Loved most of the scenes that others have mentioned here. Most are my favourites too. But if u ask me to list out as such, well then, am bad in recollecting particular scenes as such. Am sort of a bhulakkad that way. But one thing am sure is I liked almost all the scenes pre the Tasneem track & I avidly watched the repeats too at that time. That s how much I loved those epis.

Thanks so much Gayathri! Yes, pre-Tasneem track was good!

But lately I hardly see the repeats except for a couple of really good epis or scenes here & there. One of them is the Jalal crying out his mohabbat for Jodha in the masjid ( that was no soul crying , believe me , that was Jalal s heart crying out thro his mouth 😉 😆 ). A big 🤪 for the zee walon for uttering such a big lie to us implying that Jalal lied to God 😕 . That scene was beautiful & unforgettable for me 😳 .

Don't believe the Zee guy and enjoy the current scenes! There have been some good ones recently. 😊

Regarding some of the earliest scenes, I d love it if Jodha s seen reflecting back on some of them & pondering on the reason for Jalal s actions then. Now that she s started thinking abt the "prem shabd" in relation to Jalal, this thinking back might be apt & very interesting.

I d love her to think back on the sword scene & why Jalal might have faltered with her. Then the Kalima scene, that she definitely has to think about if she wants to understand what exactly her husband is & his lofty thinking on religion etc, & his deep feelings for her that he was ready even to forsake the throne for it. Then most importantly , I want her to think back on the " dhakka night" & what all he said to her nashe mein hi sahi.

These r some of the scenes I can recall that Jodha should think back on bcos it will give her a good picture of what her husband is in ideals & also what he feels for her. This am sure will relieve her of whatever lingering doubts or fears she might still have about Jalal & might easier facilitate to acknowledge her love for him. After all, understanding ur partner also helps in love. And Jalal has proved many times that he understands Jodha perfectly well. And also , we should also keep in mind that Jodha too kept remembering Jalal s face before marriage , after seeing his image in the water at Gangaur, implying that she was somehow affected by him too & it wasnt all one sided 😉 .


What a beautiful thought- how we would love an more introspective Jodha... You have listed the perfect scenes for her to recollect. You are not bullakad at all- you remembered all the scenes!

Thanks so much and thanks for posting!

My favorite Jalal-Jodha scene? It's tough to find the answer to that one but I quite liked the scene where Jalal was there for Jodha at the tarazu when she was finding it difficult to decide about running for harem warden. In the show we usually see Jodha "lecturing" Jalal but here, for the first time, it is the opposite; Jodha is having a tough time making a decision and Jalal is offering words of encouragement with his unconditional support in whatever decision she takes. The woman is the anchor for the man but here the man can also be the anchor for the woman. Both persons grow through the relationship and through this scene I felt it does not only have to be Jalal who does so.

Great scene! You beautifully described how Jalal is truly an anchor for Jodha!

An oldie Jalal and Jodha scene that I liked? I quite liked the Ajmer Sharif scene where Jalal joins in with the Sufi dancers. In that moment, he has left all his troubles behind - the throne and the recent grief of losing his unborn child - and has become one with himself. He is at peace and he is content and he needs nothing more. This is one of the first times where Jodha realizes that there is more to this man than what she has judged of him. I also liked the cinematography - the blue palette of the scene and the way the light hit the dancers - it was so peaceful and perfect.

Yes, she saw a new Jalal there ... That is until he decided to go hunting- just kidding! 😆

Congratulations...love your posts. I have noticed that you have very good sense of humor.

my all time favorites have already been mentioned. I guess, most of us think alike when it comes to this.

Thanks so much! Glad if I make people laugh even a little! 😊


Some good scenes in recent episodes

Glad you went to more recent scenes ... Most of us went back to the old times

1. whole ' hum baat Kar rahein hain' harem election scene from last week.

Mindblowing- love a defensive Jalal, especially when he is protecting Jodha!

2. Last Tarazoo scene where Jalal encourages Jo to stand for harem election. Beautiful role reversal.

Yes, loved it!

3.The flashback scene where Jo convinces Ja to release SD...Wonderful acting by both leads...loved the dialogue...' kyunki who hamaare virudh thay, hamaare pati ke virudh nahin' and Jalal's on expressions on hearing that were bang on. They have come a long way.

Awww it was so sweet ... Jalal didn't know what to do!

4. On a lighter note, did anyone else like the Jail scene where the inmate tries to chit chat and later hug Jalal. Jalal's ' kahaan fas gaya' look and Jodha enjoying their interaction was so cute. Jalal's expression after ' Kauue ki chonch me moti' dialogue was hilarious. Ameri Mirchi had too much fun at poor TE's expense. Again a role reversal...but a funny one. 😆

It was hilarious- loved it. And good point on it being a role reversal- usually he is making fun of his chudail!

Ahhh... G-Girl!!!!

I am back... 🤗

Welcome back as a senior member- congrats to you as well!

What a lovely welcome...I got to read your post today. 😃

Beautiful moments you have described...

Thanks so much and thanks so much for posting!

Without delay let me tell you my favorite moments (there are too many, but will try to restrict it to 5 to go with your theme)...

I know, it is tough right!

1) Marriage scene: Jodha puts two conditions in front of Jalal that she will not convert and want to have a Mandir in Agra fort. This was only a ploy concocted by herself and Moti. They think that Jalal will get offended and will cancel the wedding. Jalal takes time to answer this and meanwhile, Jodha and Moti exchange a triumphant look. Jalal sees this and understands their plan. Then he delivers a blow that he accepts both the conditions. Jodha and Moti did not understand the obsession he has for Jodha then. This scene got hooked me to this serial.

Loved Jalal's tedapan here!

2) Jodha's suicide attempt: This is the time when Jalal realizes where he went wrong and starts understanding Jodha. He feels that she is similar to him and realizes that she is a Begum and needs to be treated as such. This is a turning point for Jalal.

Yes, this is when he realized they were ek kashti mein sawaar and then he kept going on a kashti with Jodha 😆

3) Jodha's dance: I liked the whole of Amer track, however, one scene is still stuck with me. Jalal watches Jodha dancing in abandon during Sukanya's wedding. While he watches her, his eyes are full with passion, lust and longing.

Amazing he was there- and the scar on his cheek made Jalal look a little extra naughtier!

4) Dhakka incident: This is the turning point for Jodha. When Jalal starts ignoring her, she realizes that he is not merely a husband to whom, she owes her duty. He is much more than that in her life.

I actually love their dialogue pre-dhakka more as their feelings really simmered to the surface

5) Yatra scenes: I loved the whole Badal and Kajri scenes. They were two individuals, a simply husband and wife duo, discovering each other without the trappings to royalty. Here they learned about each other, the inner and real person behind the royal masks. The way Jodha took care of Jalal, mindful of his needs and the way Jalal took care of Jodha, taking care of hurt feet. They were just simply enjoying each other's company.

I want Badal and Kajri back!

Love

Kshithi


Thanks so much Kshithi!
