Great take, Divs & am loving the excerpts of Akbarnama that u give to substantiate the scenes ๐Ÿ‘ . Though the episode was gory in parts but it conveyed the message of delayed justice being meted out very fittingly. Excellent performances from Ashwini as MA who, though I ve had no sympathies with since her MC kaand khulaasa, managed to bring out tears for her performance if not the justification for her deeds. And Chetan came into his own too in his last scene, how much he was wasted here is such a pity๐Ÿ˜• . Regarding RT, he rarely fails to deliver & yday too he was so bangon , though the speech to the awaam seemed a bit OTT & unwanted to me.

Regarding Jodha s dialogue & her seeming reactions in the precap, I ve already said I ll wait & watch before commenting. But more than Jo s reactions & her bhashan/shirking away today, am going to focus more on how Jalal is going to handle it. I know he must already be drained out after all the emotional & physical traumas, but still I want him to stand steadfast for what he did & maybe make Jodha understand something other than her POV. We ve all seen Jalal s evolution in all these months, a Jallad to an Akbar, I think now its time Jodha s seen evolving too because she seems to be at almost a standstill in that department in all these months.

Looking forward to another powerpacked epi & ur take on it today, thanks ๐Ÿ˜ณ . And congrats that JA s No.1 ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Thanks ... doesn't the excerpts make the serial more meaningful

. Though the episode was gory in parts but it cinveyed the message of delayed justice being meted out very fittingly.

Indeed!

Excellent performances from Ashwini as MA who, though I ve had no sympathies with since her MC kaand khulaasa, managed to bring out tears for her performance if not the justification for her deeds.

You feel her pain ... but you don't sympathize for it ... at least that is how it is for me


And Chetan came into his own too in his last scene, how much he was wasted here is such a pity
๐Ÿ˜• .

Better late than never!

Regarding RT he rarely fails to deliver & yday too he was so bangon though the speech to the awaam seemed a bit OTT & unwanted to me.

I think the awaam piece was his message to all through this incident that he would punish that would hurt those who are loyal to him ... even his own ... and they made it dramatic ... or else the viewer may miss out on that interpretation

You should read Shyamala Aunty's view on that scene if you have not already


Regarding Jodha s dialogue & her seeming reactions in the precap, I ve already said I ll wait & watch before commenting. But more than Jo s reactions & her bhashan/shirking away , am going to focus more on how Jalal is goinh to handle it. I know he must already be drained out after all the emotional & physical traumas, but still I want him to stand steadfast for what he did & maybe make Jodha understand something other than her POV. We ve all seen Jalal s evolution in all these months, a Jallad to an Akbar, I think now its time Jodha s seen evolving too because she seems to be at almost a standstill in that department in all these months.

Indeed- we are hoping we see the evolution today!

Looking forward to another powerpacked epi & ur take on it today, thanks ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Thanks ... and the responses of you and others have made this thread even more special

. And congrats that JA s No.1 ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Yipee! And that too for Jalal saving the day ๐Ÿ˜‰

Ok, got it, a message to any future perpetrators ๐Ÿ˜Š . And yes, the Akbarnama excerpts r most useful & insightful ๐Ÿ˜Š . Yes, it was a pleasure to read Aunty s take on it. Aunty always writes the truth with no frills attached & that s why we all love it so much. Am having some problems with Dhwani recently, so haven't been able to comment there, but hopefully it gets sorted out soon. And yes, u said it, TE brought us to the Numero uno position again ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ‘

Aunty I am SO SO happy to see you here!!! ๐Ÿค—


I love your take, I had a good mind to PM you but I thought I should wait- And good it was. This one , One can tell you wanted to write!!


It is excellent, as usual.


The episode was the best yet after Jalal's grief ravaged Dargaah one when Jodha (why didn't umm. "Sleep forever"??)

After that , this was the best one.


Rajat's Jalal was BEYOND SUPERLATIVE on second viewing, but it was Ashwini's Maham who touched me deeply. Its surprising to see how deep (and toxic!!!) Her love for her bilogical son, and her son who is much more than just a son, is.


Ive always felt that it is Maham's guilt , that maternal guilt that Adham always viciously appealed to, that made Maham do all that she did. Her true son, was always her Jalal.


For me the absolute STAR if the show, a TAD more than Rajat, was Ashwini. Ekts can NEVER EVER be faulted for her casting!!! ๐Ÿ‘




Jodha- Well, if I had a daughter like her, I would've put her up for adoption.. And that says it ALL!!! ๐Ÿ˜ก

Trips, I also loved Jalaal's confrontation during the Sujamal fiasco, that felt like how it feels when somebody punches you in stomach, your breath whooshes out, and you stay stunned for some time, before you realised what happened. He was Shahenshah then, and yesterday, he was Shahenshah as well.
I have downloaded all these episodes. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

And yes, I will dearly miss Ashwini's Maham, Ila Arun's Maham in the movie was a cardboard cutting when compared to this one. ๐Ÿ‘

@Rsha: omg how could I FORGET?!! That was one if my favorites too!!!

He was not FURY incarnate at being a Cuckold Emperor, but also a LIVId & heartbroken Lover, breaking down the palace & his heart & limbs, simultaneously.

Truly Rajat was MAGNIFICENTLY SUPERLATIVE there. ๐Ÿ‘ I've watched it 10 times.


Ah but not for me. While Ashwini's Maham is extremely scary & I would not wish her Love even on my enemy ๐Ÿ˜†, Ila's Maham was CHILLING.


Her silken evil whispers & silence was a 50 times more spooky than all of serial Maham's eye glaring & evil schemes. ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

He he. Actually, and Ila was snooty as hell. ๐Ÿ˜†
Hers and Ash's exchange when Jodha cooks for Akbar the first time was wicked, but, in a silky smooth way...๐Ÿ˜ˆ

But, then as I have often rued, subtlety isn't to be expected from Indian TV dramas, not the daily soaps at least.

Awesome post aunty.
Truly the epi yesterday was the best , especially the scene between jalal n Maham. Both these actors have god gifted talent in them. Every time they appear together on screen, they always end up giving their extreme best. ๐Ÿ‘
Loved the last scene between the too. Loved jalal's expression and maham's care towards jalal and her motherly love to c that her son is alive.
It was a beautiful scene that can't be expressed in words and all the credit goes to the hero's of yesterday epi ( jala and Maham) ๐Ÿ‘

Thank you, my dear Swati. And as for Jalal and Mahaam, I agree completely with you. Mahaam yesterday was a creature of nuance, exactly like Rajat's Jalal is, which is why they make such a great team.

Thank you so very much, Rima darling, and I miss you all too. It is just that I cannot stand the way this place is run most of the time, otherwise I would have stayed happily with all you kids.

However, you know that you can always find me in Dhwani, that is to say when I do post on Jodha Akbar, which, these days, is not very often. I will make it a point to PM you the next time I do something, shall I?
