divi...jalal and jodha are not novice teenagers anymore..the past one year has been a bucket full of harsh and hard core lessons for both of them and even after that if a person refuses to learn ...they are to be completely blamed and as Shyamala has put it..drown themself in chullu bhar paani
let us see exactly what happened...both jalal and jodha saw shehnaaz battered hurt and she blamed TM...jodha took shehnaaz's side and jalal believed TM
so what happens next...jodha fought tooht and nail for something in which she believed...she had faith that she was right and she stood up and fought
now what does jalal do...brace urself..he drags himself and his aching heart to the tarazu and laments on the heart,feelings,moon,sun and the entire solar system and today some more...and icing on the cake he goes one step more and sentences the man to death within a day ..the one whom he had belief was innocent...
jodha is a lot of things...but the one thing that makes you admire her even if you want to whack her is her determination and strength...the same we saw in benazir track the point at which jala was furious at her...even then she did not move an inch from what she set out to do...
if jalal had to praise any hunar ..it was this..and this is what he should have learnt from her...stand for what you believe...stand strong even if a storm comes...do not waver...
TM is the man who saved his life...does even that not hold??
what Jalal should have done?
after his talk with HB the next day in DEK walks in a determined Emperor...he takes his seat and the accused and the victim are summoned...he takes opinion from the maulvis and then he speaks
"i have heard both the sides of this case and the issue is grave ,the sentence of which is nothing less than death...every circumstantial evidence speaks against TM...and based on evidence it is proved shenaaz is speaking the truth...but...i have learnt from my experience that everything that is seen is not the truth and everything that is heard is not the fact...hence i will be handling this case till my doubts are cleared...untill then TM will be imprisoned and will await my final verdict exactly seven days after today...till then this case is adjourned ..."
without waiiting to see or hear any reaction ..he gets up and walks out of the DEK issuing atgah khan to meet him in private...
and what jodha should have done
when she decided to advocate shehnaaz ..she should have walked over to TM and with utmost respect folded her hands and said...that she is ever thankful for everything he has done for them and her lifelong gratitude shall remain with him for saving ehr husband;s life...today it is her misfortune that she has to take a stand where he is on the other side...the case has been put forth in DEK and she shall put forward shehnaaz voice and her accusation based on the evidence provided...she apologizes if she crosses her maryada with him and then with calm and composure put forward all her points
jodha believing shenu is not unexpected or wrong..in her place if i was there i would have done the same..even today when a woman points a finger at the man for man handling her ..99% believe the woman and only 1% believe that man and that too only his family...this is the first and second thought...it always is the last thought that just maybe the man is innocent and even then how many of us have the courage to voice it out without any evidence and how many will believe that the woman is lying ,she shamed herself in public to take revenge??? and what jodha feels for shenu is not trust or faith but sympathy not only coz she is awoman but she is a mentally challenged woman with the emotional growth of a 5 yr old...this is how jodha knows her and this is how she treats her...so when she sees her abused her maternal instincts tend to rise and then you become emotionally blind to anything other than your child alone and this obsession to protect her at whatever cost...the first and second thought ..i had just hoped that her last thought would be that the man who gave her shelter and respect and many other woman in his ashram ,saved her husband's life could be innocent...
why do you need a bhujtha hua diya to tell you what is right and wrong..God gave man a conscious for that...this is where she majorly disappointed me ...and as for her manners in the court...i never had any hopes on that front from episode one...EK and her team had made a mockery of rajputana aan baan and shaan from day one so ..DEK ninja attack was no major shocker for me...humility ,mildness and conducting oneself with class never feature on the list of any EK heroine be it 16th or 21st century...rajputana women were and are the epitome of grace and royal princesses are all that and more..their true hunar...so no expectation on that front from a EK show...
the other major thing ,jodha was accused and on the verge of being killed by jalal in mc track..there evidence was stacked against her ...hence she knows that it can be manipulated ,hence he knows that it can be manipulated
in benazir track inspite of knowing she is a vishkanya all evidnece supported her innocence...once again both learnt that evidences can be manipulated
in MA track she provided witnesses ,in ruqaiyya FP she threatened the hakim..hence they both know witness can be manipulated
so did they learn anything???sadly no...and even after this will they learn??no
and yes why jalal can never have a plan B..coz then that would take away the chance of showing jodha's heroism...
i am all for naaari shakti and support to each other..but i vehemently oppose the demeaning of a man to uphold any naari power...naari shakti for me was when todarmal's wife stood rock solid for her husband whom she has faith in like a rock...that was the rajputana wife in action ...
after giving him the title of Akbar .within a week you show him in such a weak state with no sense of action...this is nothing but their arrogance that they can get away with anything as long as numbers pour in...EK and her team should be ashamed of the mockery they have made of an Emperor and his queen ...
btw where was SB with her wisdom when both jodha and jala needed it the most and what is the use of discussing the pros and cons of the case over tea if you do not have the guts to stand up and fight the injustice...ruqaiyya did that in mc track but now i have no hopes from her as well...hence it makes no difference what she thinks of this if she cannot act on it...so the scene made no sense to me
and coming to todarmal jee...he is finally suffering from Agraism...a deadly disorder that renders one into an utter fool capable of being responsible for your own folly
he suspects shehnaaz..very good
then he stalks her ...very good
then he enusres that every tom dick harry and their eve see him following a woman ...very very bad
then he confronts the suspect and pours out in detail the itinerary for the next day ...subhan allah
and then he gets trapped and punished and all he can whine is jalal's life is in danger while waiting for the top to udhao him...masha allah
seriously toddy...how does all this lead to saving jalal and capturing shehnaaz...getting urself killed is going to help whom?? 🤔
and this is my venting out finally...😆😆
PS: do not raise your hopes on the precap..it maybe simply that jodha is swatting a mosquito on shehnaaz's cheek and may later apply lep ..remember precaps and promos are always misleading
also we saw naari shkati kapoor in action while she made the little boy hubby tremble in his frock...poor guy puppy eyeing his new daughters...kya se kya ho gaya 😆
