Divi,

Yesterday's episode has me on two minds. Too many things happened too fast, and I am disappointed that one of the most important chapters of Akbar's life was treated as a blink-and-you-miss-it affairs, and idiotic fictional ones get stretched on for months. 😡

But, I think this event happened quite suddenly in his life

A few scenes I liked,

1. Maham - Devoid of surma, she looked wan, and broke down in the jail, what was beautiful, was she rued that she had never loved Adham, next moment she had a vision of a bloodied Jalaal, as a boy, but. A beautiful peek into Maham's psyche, Jalaal may have become Akbar to everyone, but, he remains a boy to her, vulnerable, and in need of her protection, that's why she has never been able to accept his beghums or his changed political affiliations and views.

Yes it was amazing

2. Atgah saab - Even in his death, he was loyal to Jalaal, and the final prayer was touching, though it was dumb that Adham didn't hear the prayer, though Atgah saab was pretty loud. I loved the Jalaal-Atgah conversation and loved their concern for each other. (The wig attached to the turban was cool, and I was surprised that Atgah Khan could fit into Jalaal's old jaama.)

Amazing depth to Atgah's love and concern

3. Javeda - We always knew what a pure soul Javeda was, but her sacrifice yesterday was touching. How she the exact venue of the Jalaal-Adham showdown is still a mystery. It was chilling to see that Adham Khan didn't even flinch while throwing a dart on her.

She touched me more than anything else

A few observations,

1. Agra had a civilian guard as well? Now that's neat.

2. Jalaal casually walked in to Javeda's chamber, was that allowed? Looked a bit inappropriate.

Jalal can walk anywhere

Divi, Jallu said, he never understood women, Jodha is well a different case...😉

Yes, he does know Jodha very well

Lovely post! You were quite emotional.

Thanks! It was an emotional episode nah?

And had some trouble understanding the Persian verse. Lovely lines! Thanks!👏

Yes, it is sometimes more cryptic
