Emotions versus Practicality!-DT NOTE Pg 15

hi folks!

watched the episode after completing my chores, had read Tani's LU thread and saw everyone getting excited about the hug and that was the only eye catcher in the whole epi it seems but there was more to it...

the scene starts with the three begums and a badshah..! begum number one is talking about taking a practical decision, and to some extent she is right, only if her intentions are not politically driven..begum number 2 is a combination of slight practicality and emotion, she has a soft corner for begum 3 and also does not want any misunderstanding between the badshah and his third begum..a mature, sensible, sensitive decision but not necessarily right!..the third begum is purely emotion driven and takes a decision entirely filled with emotions which at times could be dangerous, and at times could save someone's life as it happened in the vish paan case!

now what a badshah should do, whom should he listen to, which begum..the one who is giving him a practical advice so that such a thing never happens again..or to the one whose son was involved in the incident and advices to let it go..or to the third who has emotional attachment to the culprit?

the badshah is rahim's atalik..and is emotionally attached to the third begum his jodha begum..he does not want to hurt her feelings and even want to make sure rahim is safe..he has a bigger picture to look at..his decisions cannot be completely emotion driven, there has to be a balance in giving a just and fair verdict!

generally the females are emotion driven and that is how god has made them..being emotional leads to immediate action taken when the child is hungry..which is more to do with in born maternal instincts and men on the other hand look at the broader picture and are comparatively far sighted, visionary, and being a king the responsibility increases many folds! therefore, in my opinion the decision should be taken keeping in mind the benefit of all and not emotion driven due to having a soft corner for one more than the others!

in this case what he decided was mainly because of salima making him realize the bond that jodha shared in her trying times with shehnaaz and he was already guilt driven from the situation hence decided to go with his second begum's advice..and if he is practical enough he should also take some precautionary measures to make sure such a thing does not happen again! but will our natkiye rupantar cover it all, i doubt their main focus now will be how shehnaaz will create trouble..and the cycle will go on...

so here i put this question in front of you all.. which begum do you think was right and why and did the badshah take the right decision?

it is so tough to tell who was right

I would go for begum1. I know she wanted to take advantage of situation to create drift b/w akdha but it cant b neglected that her each n every words were true. Be it her future fear or current scenario. Coming to begum 2 she said that shenaaz is like a child n not mad!! But even people with childish behaviour r dangerous!! She should have said that I will make sure that shenaaz doest create ny trouble in future or that she will take care of Rahim more but only thing that she said that nothing bad happened n acted as cupid n not as mother or queen. Now comes begum 3 ,srry to say but along with begum 2 she also didnt realised the depth of entire situation. She showed concern for shehnaaz. now comes badhshah's decision, so he said jodha to make sure for departure of shehnaaz which was apt decision. As of now we havent seen him taking u turn from his decision. Among all 4 person only he understood the depth of situation n what could have happened n what can happen in future. So for the time being I agree with his decision n I hope that he doesnt change it. N the very fact that he didnt apologised to jodha for the reason of shouting says that he is still following his inner instinct.

nice and thought provoking post mandy 😊...well if you look at the situation from an entirely practical perspective then ofcourse rukiya was right ...only if her intentions were right and she did not have hidden evil motives for taking this stance i would have appreciated her pov further ...rahim's life was in danger had jalal not saved him in the nick of time anything could have happened ...nd on top of that shenhnaaz was laughining nd clapping ..this infuriated jalal and is very much justified ...coming to salima well it seemed more than her son she was bothered abt akdha ...i quite did not like her supporting shehnaaz ...it wasnot some small incident which could be over looked easily ...coming to jodha ...as i said in earlier posts excessive goodness can prove to be dangerous at times ...i did not like jodha defending shehnaaz at all...nd by trusting shehnaaz nd supporting her jodha is marching towards a suicide mission ...so yes i would say rukiya's pov was the best yesterday if only her intentions were right ...

Hi Mandy,
Valid points. But, it was difficult to decide yesterday.

And, even a REAL Shahenshah can be emotional. Akbar also forgave Sharifuddin 4 times in 20 years. He also forgave Munim Khan, despite his hand in killing Jalal's OWN ATALIK - Atga Khan.!!!!...

Infact, there are many such instances. Where such confusions of practicality vs emotionality arise and I am just mentioning at times certain decisions were taken which were not considered practical. :)

all 3 were some what right in their own ways

all three had valid points and it was difficult to decide what to do, but i think the first instinct is always right, and the first instinct of jalal was that she needs treatment and i think he was not wrong in saying that, ruk's advice was more practical and apt for that moment, but the rest were more emotionally driven!

you have very good points there! jalal's first instinct was right, he could see the depth of the situation and took the decision accordingly but because of salima's advice he might change his mind and go with jodha's will which i think will not be practical and as we all know what the result is going to be..it will be dangerous which no one is aware as of now!

Good post Mandy !

begum # 1 ... I strongly believe...rukayya character has so layered ..one positivness from her side and all sympathies of ladies audience go there ... why ?? .bec she is not any other woman .or x girl friend of hero like in every other daily soap where after hero heroin wedding his x love interest lost her all rights bec legally and ethically she has no relation with the hero

yes, i do agree that ruk was right in this situation and jalal did go with her advice in the beginning but as the majority had made up their mind to defend shehnaaz, jalal had to go by the majority at the end! but i did like his decision in the beginning which was so apt for the given situation!
