end of Ashutosh's JA and beginning of K Asif's mughal-e-azam!-DTNTPg11 - Page 13

Mandy, i'm ready for any kind of leap in the current situation..Be it small, medium, or long..Because, i'm not liking the current situation of the show..it's pathetic..i want a change..if they introduce 5 year salim..,even i'm o.k with dat..i can't watch this fake pregnency, real pregnency, MC,kids death, den again pregnency..🤢..i'm tired of all dis..😡

Yes, yes, Cuddly Bear and Mishti, but remember that Jodha, after one of the spats with Jalal in front of Khyber's prison, comes back to her rooms and fumes, Shahenshah har baar humse krodit hote hain. Hum to begum hain, koyi daasi nahin!

Earlier, when she refers to Benazir as keval ek daasi, the words drip with searing contempt.

So Jodha too is more than capable of making class distinctions when it suits her. Thus, one cannot ge sure of what she would do faced with an Anarkali, with a Rajvanshi Maanbai too thrown into the mix. I think she would stand four square behind Salim's wife Maanbai, and classify Anarkali, along with the Benazir and Atifa from her own experience, as a marriage wrecker. .

EK's Jo is very politically correct. 😆 No...wait... more than that - she actually believes what she says! ...In the sixteenth century! So we may expect her to take Anarkali's side and promote equality of all classes.

But that was not my point, Cuddly Bear, not at all! I was talking about Jodha's varying stands on class distinctions, and cited her references to daasi in that context. What does this reference of yours to the latest mahaepisode have to do with that point? I don't get it!

..and now Shyamala Akka, I just watched Saturday's Jodha and it's all different. It's Moti who's wringing her hands about Shahenshah's krodit and Jodha being quite queenly and not letting it upset her equilibrium. I think it depends on the day. Some days are better than others.

i have seen mughal-azam. to be honest not impressed,except the songs. nirupa roy and pritviraj kapoor very powerful actors, but still i felt something missing, i felt nirupa roy as jodha bhai not that strong. maybe i am to used with rajat and paridhi. but as long as they are playing i have no problem to watch. there was a rumor month ago that rajat paridhi will quit if salim anarkali story starts. i was not happy, because salim anarkali love story is not that exciting. but after reading your post you are right, since all the villains are gone, including maham, nothing left. i was hoping jalal and prataps war but i guess its not possible.lot of money involved. i love historical drama. my favorite show ja and maharana pratap. try not to miss.😊

Dear, I don't know which MEA you're talking about coz DurgaKhote played Jodha, not Nirupa Roy. Even when she was torn between Mahabali and Salim...she was regal, respectful.

Not quite that either, my dear, if that was so, life would be simpler! I think she reacts to class distinctions on a case by case basis, and if there was an Anarkali threat to the Salim-Maanbai marriage, she would side with her bahu and classify Anarkali as an upstart daasi.

oh right! 😆 I was just meaning her varying reactions to krodit. So actually you were saying that she's quite fixed in her ideas about class? then that's one less uncertainty to worry about.

Shyamala Madam,

Shyamala Madam,

I have become a huge fan of yours - Never watched any serial in my life - Just chanced on one episode of JA in May 2014 ona lazy Friday evening and got hooked - As with everyone got fascinated by Akbar and started reading a lot on Net - But the serial has lost all charm now but still unable to leave it for two reasons - There is another JA story in my head now and second is Rajat.

I have been catching up with your posts on IF - What a wonderful wonderful and lucid style of writing. Love adi, mishti, kushi and elasingh's thoughts too.

Seeing mediocrity work with superlative is one of the great tragedies of life or any theatre - Sometimes I feel that JA's female lead acting is similar to School drama. Rajat was phenomenal in first 90 episodes.
