Maddy,
What a beautiful episode!!! The episode was filled with the adorable and elegant royal family!! I am in love with the babies - they are sooo cute. I am going to miss them badly when they leave the show. 😕
I don't even want to think about twins fate, it will be dreadful to watch.
Akbar, Jodha and Birbal played their parts perfectly to make Ruqaiyya herself accept abolition of Jaziya. Her expression when she realized this was to die for. 🤣
Some peace for us or good for BP of Preet and Surochita! 😆
I loved it that Jodha stands up to Ruqaiyya at least in issues that are close to her heart. She really stood her own against Ruq in this Jaziya abolition track. 👏 JJ beamed in happiness while Ruqaiyya's face darkened ominously. A storm had started brewing in her mind already looking at the happy face of Jodha.
I wish Jodha once she realizes Ruk's real face, now never gets caught up in her kindness and nek dil to be used as a weapon against her, I want to see Jodha give Ruk the treatment she deserves, enough with wasting kindness on Ruk who only deserves contempt
I loved how Jodha acknowledged and thanked Birbal through a simple glance and a smile. Already the two have started bonding well. Like Tansen and Todarmal, Birbal seems to have realized from first impressions itself that it's Jodha who is the real empress of the Mughal Sultanat. ⭐️
👏 Wonderful line and so true.
The way Jodha teased Jalal by praising Birbal for coming up with such a brilliant plan and giving him all the credit for the far-reaching judgment, Jalal was driven to suppressed jealousy. Noticing this, the naughty Jodha gushed on about Birbal's intelligence and his ability to keep her happy. Jalal rose to leave immediately. Teasingly, Jodha held him back, professing her love for him and declaring how no one could ever take his place in her life. At this, Jalal drew her closer and told her that he could not even bear the thought of his children coming between him and Jodha. It was such a romantic moment!
Yes it was, I loved possessive Jalal and his jealousy of even his babies taking up all of Jodha's attention away from him!
Maddy, remember how many people felt that there was no scope for Jodha in the Akbar-Birbal interactions. Last night's episode proved them utterly wrong. 😳 The three musketeers had the last laugh, as they joined hands to beat Ruqaiyya at her own game.
I like your description of them as three musketeers! Would be lovely to watch this team in action!!! Preet has given them wonderful name Akdhabir!
What followed was a tender scene in which both cuddle a crying baby each, trying to make them calm. As the babies dozed off, both JJ prayed that their happiness should never be eclipsed by any negativity. Ameen!
Stung by her loss of face in the DEK, Ruqaiyya approached Hamida Bano at the crack of dawn and argued to be given her baby immediately because she feared that the baby may become too attached to Jodha and Jodha may refuse to part with the child later out of motherly bonding. Hamida tried to make her see sense that the babies had been born prematurely and needed their natural mother. But Ruqaiyya remained adamant till Hamida gave in.
Jalal, who overheard this conversation, reminded Jodha that only one of the babies was hers. Being the ever-graceful queen, Jodha did not flinch from reality. Jalal could barely look at Jodha, whilst she had to steel herself to give away a part of her.
How I hated Ruqaiyya at that moment!! How can a woman be so insensitive to the needs of a mother and a new-born baby? For the first time, since the Ruqaiyya Downfall track started, she accepted to herself that she was taking away from Jodha not just a child, but someone she loved the most, just the way Jodha had taken Jalal away from her a few months back (in her twisted logic manner).
Jodha just melted into Jalal's arms at that moment, beseeching him not to say a word, for words were insufficient to describe just how she felt at that moment. All she asked him was if she had done the right thing. He assured her that no woman / mother had the courage to do what she had done.
I was really upset with the Creatives for giving one child away to Ruqaiyya. It was heart-wrenching to see not just a mother-child being separated, but also twins being separated. I feel JJ are beginning to realize the true colors of Ruqaiyya and why she had insisted on adopting one child of Jodha, instead of just sharing the responsibility of bringing up the twins.
Wonderfully written as usual Radhika. How much we did not want Ruk to even lay a finger on the babies, not only CVs gave Ruk the glorification of delivering the babies and hogging all praise, forgetting that she was the one who caused Jodha to undertake that horrible trip and they even separated the babies for Ruk. The new spoiler is horrific, I just want to watch Ruk big bhandafod in DEK and her ugly face in front of all, all of her previous acts also in front of everyone.
Precap:
Jodha requests Ruqaiyya to let her be the nursing mother to Hussein. But Ruqaiyya shoots down her request and says that she would not even let the shadow of Jodha fall upon her child, leave alone allow her to nurse him. Jalal is watching silently but with a feeling of embitterment. He cannot believe that Ruqaiyya can stoop so low.
Last but not the least, Birbal and his wife! Such a cute couple!! 😳
All in all, a complete package with a little bit of everything! For next week - yeh dil maange more! 😊
