This forum has taught me that things are not as black and white as I would like them to be. We all have different value systems that inform what is right and wrong to us.

For some, gender comes first and foremost- the woman is always the one to be supported.
For some, it is how you are as a person that matters more than how you do your duty at work - so they focus on Jalal the person and Jodha the person
For some, duty comes first ... and hence, they want Jalal and Jodha to be King and Queen first

Shreya, most of the time, you and I are on the same page. But, I also have realized why we have so many diverse viewpoints being on the forum and why a rationale that works so well for me does not work well for them ... because they are reading it from a different vantage point.

However, I have also noticed that the same people who could not stand it when Jalal made a mistake and ended up hurting Jodha are now sympathizing with him being human when he made mistakes with Todarmal and others. I guess as Lashy said that is what this track has achieved. Everyone is now feeling bad for Jalal. 😊

Unfortunately tht case is people love to see a husband caring for a wife. But they like it not bcoz of akdha magic but more bcoz of tht thing tht how gud a husband jalal is. As we had seen mostly people have tht feminism attitude which drives the TRPs. There is no akbar in akdha. Thts jodha nd jodha's akbar. Many people, not all, enjoy akdha only bcoz jalal is a caring husband. But as soon as demand for strong jalal is made the same people blame us for spreading negativity. Same people will bash jalal if even dares to care about his other wives but when a caring emperor is demanded we will be told tht jalal is learning from his mistakes. If people really love akdha equally then why jodha going weak is a big issue but jalal going weak is normal? So people dont like akdha they like jodha to be the centre of attraction nd jalal the caring husband.

well said Divya. For me it's duty of rulers that gets me fired up. Not AkDha. For some of us, even romance has to take a backseat to ruling and reigning. And Divya I also now see this pregnancy from the point of view of an heir to the throne - that gives it more angles and dimensions than just a couple thrilled with the good news. I suppose that's why the DEK announcement is being mentioned in every episode. Ok, CVs, good job.

I love you too ... That your fun posts enthrall us and allow us to vent as well.

Hilarious conversation! I know a lot of people still love this show ... But, I would say that is not the reason Ekta has to butcher Jalal. I don't know if you read this post but I created a version of this war track where Jodha was just as strong but Jalal was not butchered: http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4101490

It is pure laziness- they are following the script of all their saas-bahu serials ... And not realizing the difference between a king and a husband. Just like in today's a leader cannot make decisions based on personal choices and needs to do his duty for his country first. I can understand Jalal forgiving Bakshi Bano who just attacked Jodha-Jalal more than I can understand Jalal forgiving Nigaar who attacked Todarmal, his people, his army,

I will tell you why I write these takes even now ...

- At the end of the Ben track when I thought Jalal had become an utter fool, he recovered in the magical night in the Angoori Bhaag with Jodha

- When I think that I am bored of Jodha always giving Jalal advice, she beautifully explains to Jalal why he should forgive Ruqs

- It is because even in the middle of Jalal moping and falling off his horse asking forgiveness from Jodha that I was worn out of ... There was the beautiful powerpoint presentation he showed when Maham Anga's truth came in front of him

It is these diamonds in the rough that I stick with this show ... And write these takes to keep me along. 👏👏👏

Bravo shreya ... bravo ... btw OUCH !!! u caught the right nerve of the people who think we are against jodha 🤣 ... longing for a strong jalal doesnt mean spreading negativity or bashing jodha (you are absolutely right ) 👍🏼... it only & only means we meant equality & balance in the character ... thatz it !!! forget it shreya ... unfortunately , none can understand the depth of love & misery we hold for the show , which is butchered mercilessly !!! 😭

Divya the episode was OK for me better than friday..

I just can't stop to watch the show, the only show I watch without missing and the only forum in IF JA forum..

I know- it is an addiction ... That I cannot get out of so I praise small mercies

For a change I enjoyed the lori JO singing, I would love if Jalaal didn't called Jo name & would loved to see Jalaal admiring seeing Jo expressions & her hands on belly feeling the baby presence..

The lori scene was beautiful ... Paridhi nailed the expressions

Jallu unable to understand Jo symptoms ?

CVs being tubelight

Jallu & Adham scene was good.. I think Jallu is getting back & hope Adham involvement in the treasury or decoits, or any any other previous Adham's failure attempts would come out ?

Yes, hope that means progress on the Adham front

I liked JJ scene where JO is eager to share the news, but she can say come with me shahansha urgent news I have to share with you which I am holding for a while.. I am sure Jallu will run with her leaving everything..

I know ... Why delay till the evening? 😆

Shenu at last go to know the truth.. Shenu did fall before Jalaal, he can't punish when he fell on his feet especially being a sister..

Not sure- it is all an act as per the new spoiler?

Jallu will get the news from someone else before Jo could tell him.. I too want JO is the one who will share the good news..

I know- feel bad for both

It would be good to see MAC scene in Kabul especailly sets looks OTT, would be better with realistic sets and looks like BOGGIE MAN feelings will change seeing JJ love ?

Yes, less OTT sets would help

Question is will he be killed or he will forgiven ? as he turns human ..

Or will we have another haivan to insaan story 😆
