No, Mandy and Munni, it is not that at all. It the Krishna-Arjuna
Geetopadesham motif imported from the Mahabharata, and this was shown in the serial just 2 weeks ago, so the CVs for Jodha Akbar must have had it fresh in their minds (such as they are!😉).
See the almost copied lines from the Bhagavad Geeta about doing one's duty without regarding any ties of affection. Only here there is a composite Krishna, a Ruqodha, and it works in the end, as it always does.
Also, Munni, don't be too hard on Jalal. He has a fit of emotional paralysis, an angst about the rightness of what he knows, in his heart of hearts, that he will have to do. But like Arjuna, he cannot find it in himself to do it, as he might have to harm his sister in the thick of battle.
After all, for Arjuna, as much or more was at stake, it was a clear
dharmayuddh, he was the linchpin of the Pandava side, he hated his cousins and Karna. Yet he refused to fight in the crucial moment. and cast down his Gandiva because he did not have the heart to kill even those who had harmed him and his loved ones so much, or to face his Pitamaha Bhishma and his Guru Dronacharya, who, incidentally, were perfectly ready to fight him and his side. Even the Lord Krishna needed 18 cantos of the Geeta to make him come around, and had to show Arjuna his
Vishwaroop to make him have faith in the Lord's words. So Jalal is in august company!
