Before getting to today's episode, I wanted to thank everyone over the past day for a very fruitful set of discussions on what is trust and the strength of the Jodha and Jalal relationship. I love this forum 😊

Today's episode further shed light on this and I found it satisfying episode on multiple dimensions, particularly as I saw Jalal succeeding as a husband, on his own.

So, without any ado, let me get to today's take 5, a true countdown as the last scene was truly the best one for me:

(5) First Jodha-Jalal interaction: I liked this interaction for the continued concern and care Jalal shows on Jodha. If I had not seen Jalal wondering what was Jodha doing later in the episode, I would have guessed he knew and was waiting for her to open up. While the CVs are covering Jodha's mistake with Sujamal's promise, Jodha has made a mistake by hiding this from Jalal. Luckily, at least they showed Jodha apologetic and apologizing in her mind as he left (Shraddha, I think they heard you)

(4) The gems in Agra paagalkhana: I know CVs cannot all the screen space to Jodha and Jalal but why not spending more time on Atgah Khan and Jiji Anga. It shows a normal husband-wife relationship which is rare on this show šŸ˜† But amidst all the scheming of MA and screeching of Ruqs, it is great to see such people who so selflessly love Jalal. Atgah who wants to show himself fit and fine to bring relief to Jalal and Jiji Anga who shared how she had given her milk to Jalal as well but saw it as a bond and not dhood ka karz. What a foil to the Maham Anga scene we had seen right before. I hope their son will continue to be a positive force in Agra once Atgah's inevitable end happens.

(3) Jalal's immediate reaction to MA and Jodha's truth: Jalal (and Rajat) nailed this scene. There was sadness and questions in Jalal's eyes but not a drop of anger. MA can no longer easily rile up Jalal about Jodha and it was satisfying to watch. Contrast this to the earlier Jalal, and you will definitely see a big difference. The sad ishq hai woh ehsaas was a beautiful touch. Sad for all of us but definitely shows the signs of an understanding husband.

(2) Maham can no longer read Jalal at all: While we could all read Jalal's sadness, this is where MA is failing now- she can no longer read Jalal's expressions and reactions. She is expecting an immediate "dhamaka" but she does not recognize that her old Jalal has changed so much. Also, can I remind you, every time MA has predicted a big dhamaka, e.g., Shivani fiasco, it has fizzled out. In addition, she continues to fly too high by twisting the truth on Suja. Clear signs of failure.

(1) Jalal's trust in Jodha: The last scene was the highlight for me. Jalal passed the trust test ... He realizes that Jodha cannot have bad intentions. And as a true husband, is worried about her safety. Today, no matter what happens tomorrow, I am satisfied. This is what we were waiting for: Jalal to trust Jodha even after being instigated by MA, having the leaf letter as proof there is truth to what MA is saying, and no Salima Begum to advise him. He has past the test with flying colors. What a beautiful scene and CVs I thank you for showing this today instead of dragging it till tomorrow! Hats ofd! šŸ‘

Tomorrow, Jalal may get angry at Jodha but he has every right to get angry- she has hidden the truth from him despite repeatedly asking and putting her security and the sultanate's security at risk. Whenever Jalal has made a mistake in the past, Jodha has been upset with him and Jalal has apologized- why can we not expect the same from Jodha?

I think she needs to learn an important lesson of trusting her husband. Since Jalal is passing the trust test with flying colors, I think this is the last step before the love confession we are all waiting for.

So, what are your thoughts on the episode today?

Nice post.šŸ‘šŸ¼



Re-quoting same comment here ALSO.


I feel NO MU is going to happen.
But some drama.

Ruq-Javeda scenes were NOT needed.šŸ˜†
Seems MA-Ruqs scenes were replaced by this particular scene.šŸ˜†

But, Atga-Jiji scene showing their affection was symbolic. I feel before Atga's death they will show how much Jalal's respects him and how good was his relation with his wife Jiji and how faithful was to the Sultanate.

Jalal TRUSTS Jodha. This was the CRUX of today's episode.


Hoping for best, there won't be MU.
Why do i feel this time MA is going to lose this "baazi".?.šŸ˜‰

Anyways, fine episode.!!..Still hopeful..

Abhay, thanks for giving more confidence. But Jalal will be hurt during this period, but still I m repeating and confident that, his wait for Jo will finally be over, I m sure she will confess.
Divya, nice post. For me the scene I liked was watching Jalal when MA was trying to poison Jalal's mind and the self talk followed of Jalal. He really can't think of doubting her😭, and he thinks that she has some reason behind thisšŸ¤—.
But was really disappointed that Jallu couldn't spend some time with Jo as he wished for:(

I loved the episode with a capital L.
My own set of positives though,

1. Jalaal didn't wear that green jaama for the third straight day!
2. No Paintuddin!šŸ‘šŸ¼
3. Audha dhua ho gaya, to Ruqaiyya ko ab sirf hukke ka sahara šŸ˜†
4. Jodha hasn't changed. She does what she wants. Mirchi stays strong!
5. Maham is in active mode! Wanna c her face when she comes to know Jallu's thoughts on her idiotic ideas.

Ben might have been a practical Vish-kanya sent by Abul Mali from Kabul, but Agra has an in-house figurative Vish-kanya in Maham.

Well, Sujamal is still not in women's garb, and Jallu's costume is different form that of weekend promo, so I can only assume that Jodha had her nightly pishachini walks some more times, before, Jallu ordered her not to leave, forcing bhaisa to become behensa. šŸ˜†

Great analysis. šŸ‘

Thanks Abhay! Thanks for posting your thoughts here.

Drama works for me!

Ruq-Javeda scenes were NOT needed.šŸ˜†
Seems MA-Ruqs scenes were replaced by this particular scene.šŸ˜†

I guess the CVs knew we were complaining about MA-Ruqs ... I think they missed the point! šŸ˜‰

But, Atga-Jiji scene showing their affection was symbolic. I feel before Atga's death they will show how much Jalal's respects him and how good was his relation with his wife Jiji and how faithful was to the Sultanate.

Loved every bit of it... Or else I was convinced Agra was a paagal khaana.

Jalal TRUSTS Jodha. This was the CRUX of today's episode.

Ditto


Hoping for best, there won't be MU.

What is to be misunderstood! He can get upset at what Jodha did but what is there to misunderstand that he already does not know?
Why do i feel this time MA is going to lose this "baazi".?.šŸ˜‰

She has lost her biggest strength- reading Jalal's mind

Anyways, fine episode.!!..Still hopeful..

Me too!

Thanks for a great post as usual.


(5) First Jodha-Jalal interaction: I liked this interaction for the continued concern and care Jalal shows on Jodha.

Luckily, at least they showed Jodha apologetic and apologizing in her mind as he left (Shraddha, I think they heard you)

Jodha did a big mistake, she shouldnt had promised Sujamal. She can loose her husbands trust but not brothers.

(4) The gems in Agra paagalkhana: I know CVs cannot all the screen space to Jodha and Jalal but why not spending more time on Atgah Khan and Jiji Anga. It shows a normal husband-wife relationship which is rare on this show šŸ˜† But amidst all the scheming of MA and screeching of Ruqs, it is great to see such people who so selflessly love Jalal. Atgah who wants to show himself fit and fine to bring relief to Jalal and Jiji Anga who shared how she had given her milk to Jalal as well but saw it as a bond and not dhood ka karz. What a foil to the Maham Anga scene we had seen right before. I hope their son will continue to be a positive force in Agra once Atgah's inevitable end happens.

They love Jalal dearly and he knows it. Thats why AK will get severe punishment when he kills Atgha.

(3) Jalal's immediate reaction to MA and Jodha's truth: Jalal (and Rajat) nailed this scene. There was sadness and questions in Jalal's eyes but not a drop of anger. MA can no longer easily rile up Jalal about Jodha and it was satisfying to watch. Contrast this to the earlier Jalal, and you will definitely see a big difference. The sad ishq hai woh ehsaas was a beautiful touch. Sad for all of us but definitely shows the signs of an understanding husband.

How can he not trust her after taking poison to save him? šŸ˜‰

(2) Maham can no longer read Jalal at all: While we could all read Jalal's sadness, this is where MA is failing now- she can no longer read Jalal's expressions and reactions. She is expecting an immediate "dhamaka" but she does not recognize that her old Jalal has changed so much. Also, can I remind you, every time MA has predicted a big dhamaka, e.g., Shivani fiasco, it has fizzled out. In addition, she continues to fly too high by twisting the truth on Suja.

He has past the test with flying colors. What a beautiful scene and CVs I thank you for showing this today instead of dragging it till tomorrow! Hats ofd! šŸ‘

Yes, Jalal came out with flying colours. I knew he will trust her and we got more than what we were expecting.

Tomorrow, Jalal may get angry at Jodha but he has every right to get angry- she has hidden the truth from him despite repeatedly asking and putting her security and the sultanate's security at risk. Whenever Jalal has made a mistake in the past, Jodha has been upset with him and Jalal has apologized- why can we not expect the same from Jodha?

My worry is will Jalal tolerate seeing his wife hugging another man?

Off course he doesnt know its Sujamal

I think she needs to learn an important lesson of trusting her husband. Since Jalal is passing the trust test with flying colors, I think this is the last step before the love confession we are all waiting for.

I think there will be a small MU and afterwards long awaited love confession.


So, what are your thoughts on the episode today?

Am yet to watch the episode but read all updates.
Jalaal needed a hug today.
How far he has come along in this relationship. From instantly jumping to conclusions about her a few months ago to worrying about her safety now!
Jodha- She has blundered, why she would go again is beyond my comprehension . But shows that she is normal after all and not one of Ekta's ever right heroines... After the extent the guy has gone for her to accommodate things even against his wishes, I wonder how she could not confess to him when he asked where she was.I hope we get to see her internal turmoil about having to lie to him.
MA- I still think its a beginning of her downfall
Jiji-Adka- Ur description is now making me want to go catch the episode.
Jalaal may be immensely wounded which results in anger tomorrow. Understandably so.
But I still think he would not misjudge her giving way to a big MU.
Lets see.

Divya, about Jo trusting Jalal, somehow, she is still miles away from Jalal when her trust or love is concerned, sorry if many don't agree to it, I know she consumed poison to save Jalal, no doubt, but it really doesn't mean that she loves him more, I know there is no less or more in love, but there should be a compatibility and understanding from both sides and at times Jo doesn't take step forward and it is very important for a relationship to grow stronger.

Abhay, thanks for giving more confidence.

Abhay always has that effect!

But Jalal will be hurt during this period, but still I m repeating and confident that, his wait for Jo will finally be over, I m sure she will confess.

I think so too!

Divya, nice post.

Thanks and thanks for posting!

For me the scene I liked was watching Jalal when MA was trying to poison Jalal's mind and the self talk followed of Jalal. He really can't think of doubting her😭, and he thinks that she has some reason behind thisšŸ¤—.

Lovely scene! True husband material!

But was really disappointed that Jallu couldn't spend some time with Jo as he wished for:(

You know the serial has been showing Jodha so perfect all the time as a wife , etc. that It is nice to see her falter as Jalal now looks like he will support her through thick and thin!

Jalaal will hurt for Jodha is hiding things and will think she does not trust him enough to discuss/disclose things to him but he certainly wont MU her that she has an affair or so!!
I m very happy that today he still trusted her even after what MA told him and tried to instigate Gainst Jodha but he was only sad about the fact and worried for her safety and didnt distrust her!!
