Again, today it was a day of the little moments between Jodha and Jalal and their happy little world amidst Maham Anga's ploys and Ruqaiyya's scheming ...
For our own sanity, I would recommend not giving too much energy or attention to Ruqaiyya's ... If Jodha and Jalal are bindaas around her, why should we worry?!?
Waise, Ruqaiyya said one thing correctly today - that women do wierd things ehen they are pregnant. That explains Bakshi Bano's behavior ... But I guess it also applies to "fake" pregnancies. 😆
Without much ado, here is a take 5, with a musical twist to it:
Take #1:
"Meri saanson mein basa hai tera hi ek naam Teri yaad humsafar subah o shaam
Teri yaad humsafar subah o shaam" (Movie: Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya)
Translated: In my breath is only your name, only your memory day and night
How can Ruqaiyya come in between Jodha and Jalal whose breaths and every thought are with each other:
- It is Ruqaiyya who calls Jalal, but Jalal comes calling for Jodha
- Ruqaiyya asks for a lep for her neck, it is Jodha and Jalal who start their own conversation on leps
- Jalal is giving Ruqaiyya a massage, but he is only thinking of Jodha's hunar and conversation
I also liked a new understanding when Jalal told Ruqaiyya that he understood she needed his saath ... But, he was indirectly telling Jodha why it was important for him to be with Ruqaiyya and she completely understood.
I loved how Ruqaiyya tried to interrupt Jodha-Jalal's lep conversation as she knew they were getting a little carried away in their lep love. 😆 Yes, there is a new kind of love called lep love.
Liked this new love (lep love).👏 for the innovative love.
But the trio bath scene was only disgusting. May be jodha is mahan and she is doing everything possible for her husband's happiness (the child), but calling jalal while ruq is bathing is also ok (no other go but to bear it). But she staying there and ruq's behaviour infront of jodha like asking him to massage her neck was not digestible. May be she is his best friend, she is going to give birth to the heir of sultanate, everything is ok, but a king behaving like this in front of another wife was only bringing an ugly reaction on my face. As u pointed out in your intro, i desperately try to ignore this ruq and concentrate only on akdha, but today even they brought only that ugly reaction.
Take #2:
"Bahon ki dharmiyan, do pyaar mil raha hain" (Movie: Khaamoshi)
Translated: In the closeness of an embrace, two lovers are meeting
Our two lovers just need to get together and they start their romance anywhere ... And this time in the garden. Though Jodha finally got shy ... And we got a "blink and miss" waist hold ...
However, what seemed more important to me was their romance reached new heights ... Where nothing would stop them from expressing their love to each other, not even broad daylight in the outdoors ...
Finally both have grown up for a waist hold. But the scene was so short that it was a flash in the mind. But jodha being so shy we cannot get more of it.
Take #3:
"Mere haath mein tera haath hain, saari jaanat mere saath hai"
Translation: In my hands is your hands and the heavens are with me
I found it extremely cute that Jalal held Jodha's hands all the way to his room ... They are back at doing what they are best at ... Holding hands!
Secretly, I think Jalal was making sure Jodha wouldn't be whisked away by some baandhi 😆
How long will he be able to control himself. Poor guy. Just in one night she made him crazy about her, that he is longing for more time with her.Take #4:
"Chumma Chumma De De" (Movie: Hum)
Translation: Give me a kiss
(An alternative for Tamil folks- "Kannathil Muthammitaal" - A peck on the cheek)
Actually, I want Jalal to sing this song to Jodha but here are a few things I liked in this scene up to Jodha's peck on his cheek (or rather a blow kiss- Guys, it is the intent that counts)
- How Jalal and Jodha almost came to a kiss ... Their foreheads close to touching when Jalal remembers a kiss
- Jodha waiting anxiously for her gift, with her eyes closed, I seriously think she was expecting a kiss 😆
- Jalal's gift of coins as his "mohabhat ki izhar" and Jodha's happiness from it (Jalal, sure knows how to impress Jodha with his gifts 😉)
- Jodha asking him to close his eyes for a gift and giving her version of a peck
- Jalal's bolt of happiness that shined through his face
- Jodha shyly running off like Kajri and Jalal called out to her
By the way, I have only two possible explanations for Jodha's shyness ...
(a) She was not used to kissing him broad daylight, hence, the new found shyness 😆
(b) The CVs were trying to recreate my favorite scene from the Badal-Kajri track; a shy Kajri running off with Badal calling out to her 😆
The scene would have been even more nice if she didn't have kissed him, rather comes near his cheek to kiss but just runs away due to shyness as he feels her breath and opens his eyes. May be rage that is going on the forum because of this "lie-kiss" would have reduced. I am ok with jodha's shyness, but cannot take her incomplete works. I do like paridhi a lot and admire her work. I do understand she is married and she is free to have her own limitation and comfort level, but i feel she needs to sort out things asap. I agree her performance is SR sequence. great job. Infact i am confident no BD used for her. When as fans we appreciate her work and sentiments, we can also point out her limitations also. Rajat is scoring in all these scenes. I am missing that jodha on 26th and 27th may episode. I am pointing out at her personal issues, but being an actress (that too married) i understand her limitations, but we cannot at the same time run away from the reality, that her nu-comfortness in such scenes are visible on the screen. I do respect her personal sentiments, but on screen we are only seeing them as jodha and akbar not as PS and RT. So i think its high time things get settle down.Take #5:
"Chitti aayi hain aayi hein chitti aayi hein" (Movie: Naam)
Translation: The letter has come
How can there be a track with Maham Anga without a letter ... I am excited there is finally progress in this track with Maham Anga asking her female captive about a map and Jodha finding this letter ... Let us see what is the story behind the letter and Chand Begum.
Glad finally the viewers got to know it is a woman
I guess Jodha is back to being Investigator for the maha-episode tomorrow. Fun times ahead!
So, what are your thoughts on the episode and the take?
