Hi Mansi,
The episode was a nice one. Jalal looked quite happy.
How a 20 year OLD
young Emperor
FEELS when he "
FEELS" that he going to get something which he could
not get till now. His feelings were worth looking at. 😊
***************************************
I want to share something from history. Though this is very common. You must be knowing.?. Still i am mentioning this.
I do not know BUT somehow Jodha's resistance to Jalal and taking SO MUCH TIME😉 to "give acceptance" to her feelings for Jalal,
reminded me of Humayun and "NAKHRA" of Hamida Bano Begum.😆😉
Read this from HumayunNama:
When Humayun proposed to Hamida Bano Begum, for marriage. 😉 You know what happened.?. She gave him a LOT of nakhras.😆 She even
refused to meet him. And, even opposed this proposal. It took Humayun
40 days of proper courting to get her assent.😉
But, one statement of Hamida Bano Begum stumped me.😊👏 This is what Gulbadan Begum writes in Humayun Nama about Hamida Banu Begum in
HUmayun-Nama, Page-151. "
Oh Yes.. I shall marry someone; but he shall be a MAN whose collar my hand can touch, and not one whose skirt it does not reach. "
^^^This was Hamida Bano Begum's reply to Dildar Begum(She was mother of Gulbadan Begum and wife of Babur and step mother of Humayun), when she asked to Hamida Bano Begum that -> "
After all you will marry someone. Better than a king, who is there ? ".
^^^^ She
ALSO very much wanted the
MAN not the Emperor.
Don't you feel she gave a perfect reply to the question of Dildar Begum.?. { Even, after this reply of Hamida Bano Begum, it took Dildar Begum, another round'S' to lecture to get assent of Hamida Begum..!!!..Yes, even those details have been recorded in Humayun Nama annexure, but NOT translated from Persian language, hence i do not know what all Dildar Begum said to make Hamida Banu accept the proposal. 😆
But, surely HB was similar to Jodha in this aspect.!. }
So, don't you see some resemblance in the thought process of Hamida and Jodha here.?.😉 ( Just a thought came in my mind.
@All friends. Don't kill me.😆 Similarly, Jodha is also taking time. Though, Conditions are different. Hamida had taken time before marriage. Jodha is taking it NOW. )
Hamida Bano Begum knows how Jodha must be feeling, as she also has gone through this
situation.
Hence, i expected Hamida Bano to sympathize with Jodha NATURALLY. 😉
I wish CV's give a small talk between Hamida Banu and Gulbadan Begum on this incident involving Humayun, when Gulbadan Begum writes Humayun Nama. This will help the VIEWERS understand Hamida's thought process better. What say.?.Both ladies, gave a HARD time to their husbands. 😉 Don't know why BUT this comparison struck my mind TODAY . Who says a 16th Century wife could NOT trouble his EMPEROR HUSBAND.!.😉
On a serious note, it was NOT possible for ALL. Only Few did it or could do it .!!!.
RIP, both of them.😊 Edited by history_geek - 11 years ago
