What a painful,melancholic and tragic story.🥺. Why do u write such sad stories?😭😭😭 Your idea was good though⭐️

Actually I hated the idea of cvs of handling this chittor track so much that had cultivated some ideas like this in my mind. Thanks for reading di.

Absolutely detest Jalal🤢😡, he turned demon in this and nothing can justify his grossly devil act. All kings used to expand and fight battles but killing innocent civilians-farmers, women, children for creating wear?😕😒😵 is repulsive and only befits a demon. Yes chittor siege revealed Akbar as a demon, his most ghastly side. The position of Jodha is worse as she cannot take a side, she was in most complex and painful situation.

Yes you are right. This act of brutality can never be justified by any means and perhaps the leaders creating such destruction does not demand any justification too! Every war is brutal itself... Be it Asoka's Kalinga war, Akbar's Chittor siege... The world wars, the atomic explosion in Japan...to today's horrendous news of Siria or Gazi- wars only begets curse to mankind!

Thanks for the story and yes you have to write a HAPPY STORY😳😃😆

Thanks for comment di and yeah Happy Story! 😆 It's tougher to write a happy story I feel.😛

OMG... Stuti di... How can you write such a deeply thoughtful piece of writing? You really have a tremendous knowledge of human emotions and an in-depth understanding of events. The whole shot forces one to think how complicated the event must have been for both Jodha and Jalal, can't even imagine how difficult it was for you to think and write about it! Very very well done! 👏👏👏

Thank you sooo much for such compliments! 😃 You are right; it took a good thoughtful time from me to build the whole situation of the story-plot. The idea had stuck me when JA showed Chitor track in a terrible bad way, and it took more than 2 years to give that idea a form.😳

The Chittor Siege, as Jodha said, will always be a blot on Akbar's otherwise glorious reign. But somehow, I want to believe in your Jalal. Maybe the real Akbar was in a dilemma like this too. After all, only a maniac can experience happiness after such a bloodshed, which I am sure Akbar wasn't! Everything you wrote was so real, it felt as if all that's really happening. It's exceptional to bring alive the bygone era by understanding the events of that time and people's reactions to it, and you excel in this field, Stuti di! ⭐️

I too believe real Akbar would have been somehow closer to this Jalal... He must had been ambitious, but not a psycho who enjoys bloodbath...

I loved this line, "War can never beget victory Jodha, it only begets the silence of death... the darkness of defeat!" This is so true, and so well explains what Jalal must be feeling as well. He doesn't regret his decision, but can't feel the joy of victory also. Because as he says, war can never beget victory. I loved your Jalal, Stuti di, he was so much an emperor, yet so much a human too! This was just how I imagine the real Akbar to be.

Our imaginations are very much same you see? 😆 Thank you so much dear. 😳

Coming to Jodha, she was just as lovable, if not more. Must have been a very difficult situation for the real Jodha back then. As she says, "Today you have won the most important battle your majesty; but I have lost in both ways!" My heart went out to her at this point. Such an irony...neither can she wish for her husband's defeat...nor can she rejoice at the capture of her motherland. If being an emperor demands sacrifice, so does being at Jodha's position.

Real Jodha's position was something that we can hardly imagine sitting in 21st centuries secured life actually... We cannot even imagine how much tough it had been for her! 😭

Forgot to mention, I loved this part too. "Don't try to extinguish that fire Jodha Begam!" Jalal uttered in a very low tone. "Don't try to overlook the emotions related to your pride of heritage, not even for me! Because those are the root of your personality! Once you get detached from your root, you lose yourself!"

Thank you so much dear... If that fire had burnt equally and unitedly in all the states of Rajputana that time, Akbar really would have a tough time to combat them so easily! But Alas! Most of them lost that, and so the rajputs of Amer fought from Akbar, sharing equal hand in massacre... Perhaps the rising Sun of destiny was on Akbar's fate then- as he was the most eligible man!!

Overall, it was heart-rendering, Stuti di. I felt bad for both of them. This line summarises their situation throughout the OS "Only the emperor and the empress were aloof from that joy..." At least, they're together. I loved the level of understanding you have portrayed between the two of them. Though their believes clashed, they always looked like a couple talking and not too kids fighting. I so loved your Jodha's handling of the situation, and the mature relationship you showed between the two of them. Loved how she said that nothing could make her hate him...nothing could create distance between them...and this had only raised some questions. Also loved how he said that he would return to her no matter what.

I always have tried to maintain the maturity level between duo. Just a discussion- not any quarrel and brawling!

You rocked it di! 👏 Love you... 🤗

I love you dear! Thank u so much for enlightening my thread with such a thoughtful and outstanding review! 🤗

Sorry for being such a late-lateef lazy commentator. 😛

Koi baat nehi! Der aye, duroost aye! 😃
