Cleo there were many things wrong in yesterday's episode....Jalal didn't look really unhappy at the prospect of marrying Ben...The way he looked at Jo when she was going to drink poison, and when she was in his arms...he just didn't even looked in shock even...
Anyway will he punish Ruku or at least give her tongue lashing for bringing him at death's doorstep...I doubt it...I was very disappointed in him when he said Abul is responsible for all this...
I have always praised Ben for her dignity...She might be a vish kanya but she carries herself with lot more dignity than Ruku...
Salima and HB are useless...
Jalal looked very concerned for Ruku who had almost got him killed and felt nothing for Jo who was lying on death bed trying to save him...
Ela, this is one episode which confused me... My thoughts on how Jalal should have handled the situation keep changing...or maybe, it is the first time that I am unable to give him the benefit of the doubt. A part of me understands how he could not just leave Rukkiya in Ben's panja and run after Jodha... On the other hand, this selfless woman who was being badly humiliated by every Tom, Dick and Harry in Agra, did not lose sight of her goal and managed to save your life by almost sacrificing her own. How could be stop himself from running after her... Even if he did...trying to be practical, at least don't utter those diaglogues to Ben that make you look thankless. Today, I was also very disappointed with his leadership and crisis management skills.
We all know that he will realize his mistake and apologiize to Jodha. More importantly, I want him to make Rukkiya apologiize to Jodha. It is time to change the harem dynamics. No one in Agra questioned Rukkiya when she slapped Jodha for putting Jalal's life in danger. Since Rukkiya has committed the same crime, the least she needs to do is apologize to Jodha for repeatedly humiliating her. And since she criticized Jodha at DEK, the apology needs to happen there as well. .. I am not saying that Jodha needs to be elevated to the top position right away... It will only increase the number of her enemies) but officially given the same position as Rukkiya. She has earned it. Just because Rukkiya had spent more time with does not make her automatically eligible to be the queen bee...She may have earned the title initially but has not has not anything to make a case that she deserves to retain it.
I personally don't care for MA apology..
