Today's episode saw movement on many fronts ... Here is my take 5:
(1) Atgah and Jalal did find the right enemy ... Razi Khan.
I was impressed by Atgah's investigation skills looking at the body of the soldier, finding the mark, and then tracing it to Razi Khan. 👏 About time! 😉
And I know a lot of people thought they will find the wrong person, but they actually did find the right person ... He was helping Adham Khan.
But the root cause is still there to be found, Adham Khan, ... But for now they are focused on Raja Ramachandra.
I am glad that Jalal is finally shown cracking down on an enemy ... And launching a war. I almost forgot they had wars back then. 😆
Finally, atgah's investigations were fruitful and we saw some result as well. It was not like earlier rant "hukum ki taamil hogi" and closed in the box 😆
Quick question: Was King Ramachandra the king that Jalal was upset at when he was speaking to Todarmal and Maan Singh the other day? I missed the name the other day.
yes
(2) Maan Singh the warrior and his Mughal Aunt ...
It was great to see Maan Singh to get screen time today and in a way that foreshadowed his growing importance in the Mughal Army and how he would have to battle many Rajvanshi kings in the future. You could relate to his turmoil ... As a Rajvanshi and part of the Mughal Sultanate.
Another person who got some dialogues and work today 😆
Loved Jodha in her Mughal Begum avatar ... Where she said an enemy was an enemy regardless of religion and he should focus on serving the Mughal empire.
Hum kya kya na kiye Tere pyaar mein, hum Rajvanshi we Mughal Begum bangaye 😉😆
Oh yes ... And the Angry Jalal
And Jalal came in and added his angry instructions well! I love Angry Jalal so cannot resist.
He is always awesome 😳, isn't it ?😉
BTW Maan Singh looked sharp in his warrior attire ... I kind of want to see Jalal in a similar attire and Jodha doing aarti for him, what say? 😉
Even if he goes to shikaar in that costume, I am ok, and even for shikaar he would need that costume for safety, if his Jodha Begum will be with him, you never know her obsession for pashu pakshi 😆
(3) But, instead we get Jalal the Father ... Showering his love for his unborn (non-existent) baby ... It was touching to see Jalal speak to his "baby" ...
And it finally touched Ruqs when she feels guilty and begins to realize how badly she has trapped herself and how Jalal's dreams will be shattered.
How is it that people realize their mistake right before they are going to get caught?
I want to whack Ruq's for hurting him 😡
(4) Jalal stealing some time away with Jodha
I think many would be happy Jalal called away Jodha from Ruqs to spend time with her ... I was too.
I was even happier to see they didn't talk about their respective hunars/gyaans, bachchas, and leps ... But focused on Mughal History and Chaand Begum. 😆
Lep free episode 😆
I also liked Jodha's interest in Mughal history.
The irony that Jalal is so concerned about Chaand Begum and her daughter and Shehnaaz is thinking the exact opposite.
She thinks killing Shehansha is like eating peanuts, Humayun left throne for such dumb daughter?😡
(5) Jalal the genius? Yes, I am referring to the precap. I think it is highly unlikely as it is very elaborate and there is an official looking spoiler that Ruq's truth will be out... It looks like Jalal will ask the hakim for a test for pregnancy.
Looks like the new hakim has an upgraded, instant formula to detect fake pregnancy? Jodha's multi-colored vomit took some time in coming. 😆
For me, more than the result, I am curious to know, what made him doubt Ruq's pregnancy? And I m sure it's not a dream
And even if this dream, at least someone thinks that Jalal is this smart in their dreams! 😆
A few more questions that are bugging me:
Okay, this Shehnaaz track as wider holes than Swiss cheese ... A few major questions I have :
- If this is the first time Shehnaaz is seeing her Mom's picture, how did she recognize Chaand Begum's picture as they only referred to her as a khaas begum? Is it some kind of genetic connection? 😆
- How did Jalal kidnap Chaand Begum when he wasn't even born yet when all this happened? 😆
My question is did CB become pagal after few years of escaping from MA? And if she never met her daughter after she giving her daughter to bandhi, how did Shehnaz know about Taqt which was known to MA, CB and Gauhar Khan who was killed by MA? What instances made Shehnaz feel that Jalal has kept her captive? For god's sake creatives, don't show Shehnaz has younger sister of Jalal, as she is not and pls spare history by not showing Jalal gave Delhi throne to her.
Looks like the CVs may even show Shehnaaz in charge of Delhi soon and I have not heard any historical account of that yet ...
Ah well, logic is too much to ask for these days!
So, what were your thoughts on the episode and the take?
