CV's maybe I am in the minority for what I feel!

To me what stood out today was, Jalal is so bogged down with his guilt that he is incapable of taking his own decisions or to think straight! Being an emperor he didn't know how to make a wrong deed right? He had to be instigated first by his mom and it didn't work even then and then he needed another dose from his revered Salima Begum to go and get Jodha and fill the bridge left by his accusations! Why is he requiring this stimulation to do the needful?

Or was that sequence of Salima Begum's advice only for Ruqaiya's benefit? Did you all wanted Ruqaiya to know that Jalal has a heart now and it belongs to Jodha? Her mighty heartless emperor has fallen in love with her rival and it was a big blow to her ego, character and her own heart?

If the latter then I still understand but if not then I still fail to understand Jalal's dilly-dally in front of Jodha's picture asking for her forgiveness and mercy no matter how moving it looked. I know he said some very valid points to her portrait but as usual all will be hog-washed under his guilt which is felt in double fold specially with his ammijaan's reprimands and Salima begum's insightful suggestions. Still I feel he is not wholely and solely to be blamed in this situation.

And Jodha today in the soul talk segment told Jalal openly that he mistook her 'prem' as 'paap'! Really Jodha!? Did you even know yourself that you loved Jalal? You kept contradicting yourself and so did your 'antarantma', then how will dense and dimwitted Jalal know that you loved him? The first ever acknowledgement was in your letter read by Moti and that shook Jalal to no ends listening to that, but before that not only Jalal but even we the viewers were going back and forth like tennis ball wondering 'does she' or 'does she not'!? Its very convenient to pass the blame on to others but very difficult to ponder and evaluate and acknowledge one's own faults. The stand that you are giving Jodha right now of being the 'victim' in love and enveloped in self-dignity is not right CV's because she was also highly to be blamed in this whole situation but who am I to point it out, as usual in your dictionary the female protagonist can never be wrong no matter how many mistakes she commit.

And please, please, please spare us those unnecessary, unwanted Javeda - Maham scenes, isn't Maham-Ruq scenes, the lusty intentions of Sharif, Adham Khan's conspiracy enough to torture and torment us? It doesn't invoke any comic relief or laughter in me as you all think it does.

But yes, the episodes does de-stress me after watching the power packed performances of Mahabharat nowadays. When I am enveloped in humiliation about the degradation of dignity of women, crying uncontrollably and involuntarily seeing the "so-called" righteous society and impotent men, angry at the incapacity of all the famous and eminent men and husbands unable to protect a wife's and a woman's honor and respect then the episodes of JA after that brings nothing but laughter and amusement in me. I know Mahabharat has strayed a lot from the book itself, the story has been modified and changed to make look more dramatic and modern but I will say this every one be it the actors, editors, the dialogue writers, the cameramen, the direction team is at its best because it moves me as a viewer, it is capable to invoke that emotion within me, it is strong enough to evoke those tears flowing from me stirring my soul! Inspite of knowing they are not following the original story line of Vedvyas they are still able to move me to great length with their performances, treatment and execution, learn that from them CV's. The power of treatment and execution along with performances can make or break a show. I know I am not supposed to compare or talk about any other show but I couldn't stop myself because one can improve only with a better example in front! That show brings out the true feminist in me and not this contradictory, self-proclaimed righteous Jodha with whom I can't relate to.

Turn it around CV's, nobody wants to watch a spineless emperor who is unable to take his own moral decisions, who has to be instigated by his mom and begums to do the needful and a queen who is always lecturing and telling the emperor what to do and how to win the masses! Remember this is not Jahangir's story, it is Akbar the great's!

Tell me about it! They should just rename the show as Jodha and take Akbar out!

You maybe in a minority but you still matter. There has been a significant fall in ratings from 9.4 to 8.9 TVM because of the craptacular tracks they are showing. More fall can be expected.

I am happy to hear this, this shows the viewers still have some conscience and brains left while watching a show and more happy that this will make the CV's take notice that something is going wrong in the story line of how its being told or portrayed.

Adi frankly I don't understand this kind of feminism where because a woman is dong wrong still she becomes right! What kind of upliftment of morals, values and ethics are being told to the masses? That you can go secretly out in the middle of night hiding from your husband and its perfectly all right and if that husband questions even after tolerating and giving the benefit of doubt innumerable times is thrown in the gutter! Viewers who are men will feel like this because the opposite always attracts but when women also vouches this type of behavior I fail to understand the logic.

And now they are justifying Jodha's accusations based on Jalal's doubts. I am not saying what Jalal did was right but share the blame, show both of them were wrong in their own way. It can't be only Jalal's guilt, penance and suffering, it has to be Jodha's too! And by penance and suffering I don't mean lying on the road or siting under a tree going without food and shelter. That is invoking sympathy but not making the conscience realize where she went wrong or how she never acknowledged her LOVE for Jalal ever before because Jodha herself was unaware and unsure of it.
