Jalal having taken the turban from jodha he observed, "Maharana, this exchange of turbans only means expressing out our fraternal affection for each other and I shall be gratified in doing so".
Did you research this elsewhere Harshu? How coincidental.. because I was reading up about Mughalian riding shoes (for chapter 24) then I read about the Turban and how it was the most important part of a man's get up... and never took it off... so this came as an interesting tid bit here.. !
"Cheers to the Maharana Gopal Singh".
Nice man... Jalal owes him a lot!
Gopal Singh reluctantly said, "I had no idea about her as I do not have any carriage or palanquin sort of for her to go in".
So cute!
Jodha assured, "There is no need to be concerned about guru dada, as he might have been out only for the things that relate to us, so let us leave without wasting anymore time".
But why wouldn't he say something before going? Esp when situation is so tense! 🤔 He wanted to handover the royal jodi and scoot off...but he could have said something na... silly dada... anyway, Jodha wasn't worried... she's used to him disappearing in the fields!
one fact which only a fewest of the lot knew and that was the emperor within his heart always loved his son jalal, whom he considered the fittest and the only worthy successor for the throne who would continue this legacy of the glorious Mughal Empire.
Then, why didn't he take any measures to protect Jalal's life? Always favouring his other sons? So much so that Jalal was forced to life in exile fearing for his life 😲
Shehzaada Nazim was no more, but that dint hamper their promise since out of their own will they were ready to extend their full support to Shehzaada Jalal if necessary.
😕
As for Maqsood Mirza, then they were not at all seemed to be pleased with him who had all the grand plans of placing his son in law Shehzaada Nadir on the throne.
😈
jalal too had vowed not to raise his voice directly or indirectly against his father
Phew! Wise...
jalal changed his ordinary looking attire into his original one that befitted his position
jodha too donned into a new garb that was perfectly fitting in for the status she was complied too. She had been dressed in a royal begum's attire whilst bedecked with the royal jewelries, everything worked so charmingly wonders on the slender figure of hers and it highlighted the flawless complexion she had.
Again you described Jodha's beauty ... but ignored Jalal... how am I supposed to imagine how he looked 😭
Katti!
What if one day I am deprived of meeting my Lord even for a day?"
😲
She felt her heart twitched at the mere pain of being separated from her grandpa dearest and guru charan along with shailaja with whom she was associated since her infancy.
I do not yearn for this, as my soul longs for the happiness and solitude that I had been living for all my life in that secluded place of Surajgarh".
Gopal Singh's face lit up with a warm smile that did create a few of those wrinkles beneath his eyes and a bit groves in those cheeks as he said, "I think this letter shall answer all your queries".
Awww
Jalal now had realized the reason behind Asma's act and was moved by her presence of mind due to which he was saved from being taken as captive otherwise, by now he would have been a prisoner in Delhi.
Double awww
Jalal by now looked dull as blood drained from his face, it assumed to be pale with anxiety. With avid eagerness in him, he opened the letter that grabbed his eyeballs.
Why was Jalal so tensed even before reading the letter? Personally, I didn't find anything wrong with the message -Jodha anyway was half-Hindu half-Muslim na... brought up with both customs... 😕
But why did her grandpa send such a message? Does that mean he is cutting himself from her life forever?
Persia? 😲 Wait... by any chance she would know AMK then? 🤣
Such a noble, such a graceful and beautified persona she is, with etiquettes and code of conduct of knowhow could only belong to a dignified family, but I am only curious so as to know from which country she belongs too".
I have one koschun... 😆
Is this Gopal going to end up having a secret crush on Jodha?
Jodha had been given all the comfort that the begum of an emperor would live in. A number of maids were in waiting for her who at the drop of hat were eager to obey her commands by all means as they felt it to be honored to do so.
Two of her maids with gold embedded fans were fanning her whilst a few others were keen to wipe out the beads of sweat that formed on her brow. She had been bedecked with all the grandeur from tip to toe with lavish jewelries and heavy finery which she utterly disliked.
Jodha wasn't happy at all, as the otherwise vivacious girl had now looked lifeless and bland.
why no one's wiping the beads of sweat that formed on Jalal's brow 😭 Paavam... he also travelled long na..
