Divi ,

I never thought you would justify Maham.I was afraid that you might become emotional.



I am not that emotional ... if you see, I am extremely logical in my reactions typically ... now why I would watch an EK serial then, I don't know 😆

Interesting take - perhaps real emotions were blending with reel

Maybe we will have a flashback scene on her apologizing ... But even if they didn't it was likely because it was a tough script for them to deliver




Divi, agreed maybe a diff script for them. But her vicious acts need to come to light na? Till date the real culprit she, in the case of Ruq MC, is not revealed. And add the big list of her sins. The way Resham's loyalty is repeatedly shown (am sure they are going to show her take revenge for MA), the chance of it being revealed through her is lost. None else who knows are existing today anyway.

And if she had truly felt love for her son, she should have repented her such acts against such a son. It could not have just been just a desire to see him or being called mother and even having time for a Lori (this was too much- looks like a copy from Mahabharata serial where Kunti sings for Karna).this rendition is lacking as quite a few have pointed out, and I feel that it could not be ignored and hence the FB guess (if am right per history she regrets her acts to Akbar when in deathbed).

Regd praising of Jodha, it seem a force fit - looks like there is a policy that all villains need to salute her sometime. If MA had been true to her character, assuming that is why she did not apologize, then she should not have saluted Jodha as well. If a reformed MA is to be shown, then an apologetic MA, even in a dignified way was needed as repentance goes with regret. And for this just a mere mention of Jodha coming to feed her and hence her blessing does not fit. Brand Jodha that way, with MA's repentance and Jodha's patience and kindess despite her behaviour, would have been more glorified. Only way I could think is - they wZnted to keep MA's character intact (they will die with their ego), and her love for Jalal rather Jalal's love for her despite her behavior and brand Jodha had to be shown - all in a single frame and hence that scene.
But in this process MA was glorified intentionally or unintentionally or maybe confused as a glorification of Ashwini!! Glorification of MA could be justified only with repentance, else it will only leave a bitter taste in many a mouth. Those who praise the Epi are praising the acting more than the content as you would have noted.

Regd brand Jodha, she should not have been projected as her going to MA with an intention to revoke the curse. Instead as someone who genuinely wants to take care of one in such a condition, especially as she is the one who has saved her dear husband unmindful of herself. This would have more the brand Jodha.

Nice take, Divya!!

Ashwini is a superb actress which breathed life into character of MA.But, I cannot stand MA. I don't know about others but I did not feel emotional at all when MA died. Yes, I liked when MA accepted Jodha and took back the curse and blessed that Jalal will get an heir from Jodha. It was nice to see that MA accepted Jodha who she hated most. But, I was not satisfied; not only as an Akdha fan but even as human being, this was not enough for me (if it meant to be shown MA was repenting). I wanted MA to apologize to JALAL also for causing pain to him and betraying him. But, here she was asking Jalal why he punished her and stopped calling her Baddi Ammi, are you kidding me? Or at least MA could have been shown repenting in jail and thinking of all her past crimes since her hand in Bairam's death to saving Adham to causing Ruq MC (inturn making her infertile) to letter MU. She could have counted all her crimes and said to herself that due to all of these she was punished by Allah by losing both of her sons. This would have been more apt. I just do not think it is fair to Jalal, Jodha or Ruq or others that they do not know MA's all past crimes. Even after knowing ALL her past crimes and sins, Jalal and co had still bid her farewell with sombre expression and without display of OTT would have been fine.
