I see folks are quite upset- some people are upset Jalal shouted at Jodha, some Jalal had to apologize, some that the hug was not romantic enough, some are upset there is a new vamp in 😉Shehnaaz, and then there are some worried about a potential Jodha engineered MA-Jalal patch up. Phew, that is a long list 😉😆
This long list has taken a toll on me. But high -5 to your positivity and optimism. Something is missing in the Show these days.
While there are enough things to worry about, I thought I would cheer you up with a take 5 because the episode had its moments:
(1) Jalal's argument: He may have gotten angry at Jodha ... But it was not in public but in front of family and it was after Jodha continued to defend Shehnaaz against him in front of this same family ... And every one of his arguments was bang on: that it was a risk to have her around and how long had Jodha known her to believe her sweet talks.
It is important to remember that the outburst was driven by his love for Rahim, not his anger on Jodha or Ruq's case ... He was most impacted by Rahim's words that she pulled the dolls from him and he fell.
And we all know now, that Jalal was absolutely right with his instincts ...👏
Jalal has always right instincts, remember even during Sujamal track, he guessed it is Sujamal but Maham misguided him. Now again "bewakoof" JOdha , shenaaz words, is misguiding him.
(2) But yet Jalal had the humility to make amends as he took out his anger on Jodha: I continue to see this as a quality of Jalal that he is humble enough to make amends when he thinks he has done wrong. I also liked how he persisted to calm her down and make sure she was calmed down before leaving ... That is the type of mature conversations he needs to continue to have with Jodha. 👏
I love Jalal.
(3) Jalal the father: Yes, we saw Jalal the father in his outburst. But, I loved how we continued to see this father in his conversation with Jodha as he described how much Rahim meant to him ... Did he in any way look like a step father to you? 👏
All the women looked least bothered about Rahim today, other than Jalal and Hamida Banu to an extent.
This Salima is giving more than required advice to Jalal, every time she has to say what he should do and should not do about Jodha. Is she his wife or ----, I did not understand her today at all.
(4) The wedding anniversary wish and hug; things I liked:
- Jodha's heartfelt prayer (and seeing her sans makeup) ... Are we glad her hate has turned into love as well 😳
- Jodha's signature "aap yaha?" - Moti was so bad at it that I actually missed it from Jodha 😆
- Jalal's sweet words to her ... And the fact that he included "biwi" and "azeeza begum" 😳
- The hug / jadoo ki jhappi: For those who are unhappy with the hug, please note that Jodha did not hesitate to reciprocate the hug this time and hesitate with her hands and this was in public ... This is progress my friends 😉 Slowly but surely
- Jodha resting her head on Jalal's 😳
BTW, looks like the peach jamaa is lucky for Jalal ... He always gets hugs from Jodha while wearing it ... But , why is Jodha still in her red/yellow outfit? 😆
Ah, I could have cheated and split this into two but anyways I will come up with one more ... 😉
Loved that scene. It was beautiful.
(5) And the precap ... Wait and watch on the conversation and MA ... But did anyone notice that Jodha is wearing Green 😳
By the way, did any one notice Jalal's eyes when Salima said that Shehnaaz had been Jodha's support during her painful time away from Agra? There was a bit of guilt, but I felt a tinge of "Oh God, I have new competition" 😉😆
Well now we know why Shehnaaz tried so hard to get Jodha to admit her love and go back to Agra ... To get to the Shehenshah. 😆
I think the pre cap is misleading, may be it is about inviting MA to Jashn or something..and Jodha asking him to at least face her and not completely ignore her..In general i feel that Paridhi and both Rajat looked soo tired in last two episodes. Paridhi's rootna and maana..looked soo artificial..
Billion dollar question: Why did Shehnaaz not recognize the Shehenshah when she first saw him near the Kanha murthi ... He left the ashram thinking Jodha was not there ... When she had every incentive to make them meet. She didn't know the Shehenshah by face? CVs don't have any logic? I guess the latter is the best answer. 😉
So, what were your thoughts on the episode?
I think i like the misunderstanding , pain etc between them more than this avatar. I loved loved basal kajri jodha and Jalal. there was still a ted a halal there and the perfect Jodha. This mushy mushy couple with no passion is getting bored. I am so sorry divya for such sour comments on such a positive take 5, but i had to vent.
