Thanks for a beautiful update, Harshu di. 😃
Awesome episode today! ⭐️😳
The first scene was beautiful. Jalal was so much in pain, and that was evident in his eyes. It is amazing, what all he can convey just through his eyes. I don't know if Bakshi has still realized the amount of pain Jalal is going through. It does not seem so, to me. She still seems to be proud of the fact that she has done nothing wrong, since that is what people do in love.
Today's episode really brought out the suffering of Jalal, as an emperor, a husband, and a brother as well.
I didn't actually remember what Jodha said in the DEK, from the first time. But her punishment was, sort of expected. But it was presented quite stiffly, to add to the suspense quotient. There is, no doubt, that Jodha's punishment was only concerned with Jalal's happiness. She knew how difficult it must be for him, both to punish Bakshi, and to see her punished. And that is why she chose a way, that was actually the best. As she said, there was no bigger punishment than forgiveness. I don't know how true that is in Bakshi's case.
Just notice the eye talk the two of them have, after Jodha announces her verdict. My God! Their eyes really speak volumes! ⭐️😳 Jalal's eyes, asking her the reason, and hers, as calm as ever, were reassuring him, that nothing is wrong, and nobody would say that it is injustice. All that they discussed later in Jodha's hojra, was, it seems, already talked about here, through eyes.
Jalal still thought that Jodha's punishment was too liberal, and the aawaam would call it injustice, and thus he gives the final decision. A punishment that was harsh, really harsh! Also he because he knows what all Jodha has gone through, in this fiasco, and that deserves a punishment. He wantes justice for Jodha too, as an individual, whethe he accepts that or not. He finds himself guilty too. And he has chosen a punishment, which would severely punish both him and Bakshi. Though he doesn't know, that this is affecting Jodha too.
The AkDha scene was again, amazing. ⭐️ This was the first time, where Jodha is trying to understand him. She is all throughout looking into his eyes, which are oozing out pain, and only pain. Also, I loved it when she accepted that she felt jealous at that statement of Bakshi Bano. As I had said, she is definitely sad, that she would never be able to experience that kind of love, in which a person forgets all the limits. Anyway, Jalal didn't seem to pay much attention to this statement of hers. Because if he did, he would've definitely reacted strongly, or at least looked into her eyes once. But he was more engrossed in the present situation.
Also, I loved it when Jodha accepted that their relation was still intact. It had been broken verbally a hundred times, but emotionally, the connect still remains, getting stronger with time. She was true here, but quickly changed to the relation of hatred. Though, she very well knew that the relation of hatred, has long been broken. Not verbally, but emotionally. Still Jalal does not notice.
As I said, Jalal does not forgive her for two reasons. He is afraid of being claimed unjust. And secondly, he still thinks that Jodha's sufferings deserve more punishment, both to him , and Bakshi. No matter how much pain he has to bear for that, and also because, he still thinks himself of guilty in this case. Maybe he thinks Jodha would also distance him, as due to his family, she has suffered so much. He doesn't want that to happen, and hence such a severe punishment.
Jodha is bang on when she reasons out on why Jalal has a heart. He definitely has one, much bigger than most others. 😳
I would have loved if Jalal would've poured all his pain out to Jodha, just like he did with Maham, instead of trying in vain to hide his tears. Though this scene proves that their comfort level has surely risen a lot. See how Jodha speaks out all her experiences in front of Jalal, without any hesitation. And Jalal, is hesitating to tell his pain to her, only because he thinks Jodha to be the victim, and him to be guilty.
Loved the way Jalal took Jodha's stand in the ladies meeting. He doesn't care what people think about him, but about Jodha, he does care, and a lot. 😳
I just don't have words to describe Jalal's speech to his aawaam. That was simply amazing! ⭐️😳
Such a heartfelt speech! Words literally came out from the heart. 😳 Heart - touching and heart - wrenching at the same time. 😳 How clearly, and innocently also, at times, he told everything to his people. What more can a praja want? When such a loving king is there for them , who considers them as his children. 😳 Jalal was simply outstanding, and so was Rajat! ⭐️👏
This was the first time, when Jodha actually felt proud of her husband. 😳 As a dutiful and just emperor, and as a husband, of course. 😳
