Today's episode is one of the worst I have watched.
Its a different thing to read that Akbar had killed 30000 civilians in chittor and completely different to watch it on screen. The menacing way he walked towards that kid killing his father I could not watch it any longer.
Akbar was an parentless kid an hostage in childhood isn't it? Then how can he kill another kids parents in front of its own eyes? I do not care if he takes kid to Jodha or not but this scene was highly deplorable.
Even if he did all these things it should not be shown. OK audience already knows Akbar was a ruthless warrior and dreaded king. Should it be shown so graphically? The viewer shall be repulsed by this and we can no longer believe that Akbar could ever love anyone after doing such non descriptive atrocities. Honestly this war is all I shall remember if he goes to jodha or act goody goody again.
In maharana pratap they show without offending the viewer. We know pratap and Shakti fought once and to stop the fight a priest came in between and they cut him to pieces. So do they show that on TV? No neveerrr
We know Udai Singh was a womanizer and he was highly influenced by his younger wives and once he wanted to marry Mahmood Shah young sister young enough to be his daughter. And when proposal was rejected he threatened to attack them. Do they show this? No neverrr
Like this I can give list of all the bad things of every possible ruler in world.
Why? Because if they show all that we will not be able to respect that character on screen again. We will be reminded again and again all the past that his human nature.
