So it is curtains now. I have mixed feelings at the end. This is the first hindi serial i have watched from start to end after Mahabharat. Even if i have hated some tracks and Akbar's abla-pan, i've stuck to it.

The initial magic created by the show in the first 100 episodes was so strong that it pulled me through the next 466.😳

The serial's real magic lies in the actors. The terrific Maham Anga, the deceptive Ruqaiya, the ruddy loafer Adham Khan, the leeching Shariffu, the intimidating Bairam Khan, the charming Abdul and of course the gorgeous Jodha and the dashing Jalal. The leads were exquisite and almost perfect in the initial magical episodes. The execution was wonderful too. Such a package is rare in tele world. With better handling it would have been a classic. Yet, Surely inspite of all its faults and shortcomings the serial and the IF discussions are one of a kind.

I had wished that the serial had ended in a song and dance seq, the awaam praising their king and queen followed by a longer soul talk and a longer recollection.

Once more...a quick recall...of the magical moments...just copying the ones i posted in Mandy's thread.

I know Bharmal, that you are going to offer what I want on a platter yourself...

What is so magical about you lady, I feel magnetically drawn...

So you want my head, do you?...

Who are you?????

Your future . ...

Jalal's prayers have always had a touch of serenity.

You are my world Badi Ammi

Hello friend...

Can anyone dare defy me?

Don't leave me Khan baba...

Dare you describe my lady...

I like salt in my halwa badi ammi...

I am your shohar dearie...you can't escape me now...

Are you trying to pull a smart one baby?!

Sorry madam. You cannot beat me in this game. I will not give you the satisfaction of winning. I will relent and be the ultimate winner.

The grand shaahi shaadi

I will protect you from the world. But who will protect you from me????

I married you as i hate you...

Try defying me as much as you can amer ki mirchi...

Khushamdeed Jodha Begum...

The Emperor has the last word dear.

I have won, yet lost...and feel happy about it

Give me your hand...you can't refuse, can you?

What is more divine! The aarti or the girl standing in front of me!

The poem...the very scenes and concept was poetic...

You care not for me, but you are happy for my child...you are different ...very different...

How dare you?

Forgive my impertinence. You are my Khan baba's amanat...

You can choose to quit by talaaq...

The medicine of love over the wounds of hatred...

Nobody has troubled me as much as you have done.

What do you think of yourself???

The glorious ride...come home, I'll tell you...

Here's the royal couple together...the most dashingly handsome Emperor...

Ek hi kashthi mein sawaar...

Pride goes before a fall, but not in your case dear...

Do pout scream your lungs out my dear...nothing you do will perturb me...

You and I together...

ssshhh...koi hai...

😭

Such a small punishment for such a huge crime? I will give you an overdose of what you hate most...ME.😃

I have accepted Hindustan...now Hindustan will also accept me...

You've got to obey me now...

Oooh! ...Aaahhh!🤣

Dare you dream of taking away my fort against my will...

A camera's delight...

More than the episode the memories of the discussions in the forum are unforgettable -esp Lashy's did he/ did he not...😆

Such effective expressions displaying pain supressed anger and hurt at being betrayed by a sister he loved so much...

Tender togetherness . ...

Jalal's dreams took us to dreamland . . . . . ☺️

Heartbreak . ...🥺

The princess who wanted Jalal's sar in Kali Ma's feet turned a Kali herself to save the very Jalal's sar.

The Emperor of Hindustan bows before the Emperor of the Universe. I never imagined that an actor could look so handsome while crying. Rajat's performance in this single take took the show to no.1 spot.

You cannot leave me...😊

The lovely Badal Kajiri

How CAN you?...(This was a scene where RT's performance was so fabulous that we felt more sympathy towards the one who raged than the one raged at.)

Jalalaluddin Mohammed is called Akbar by his awaam.

You are a special woman...you fill my life...you are my dear wife...

Moments of soulmate-ship

The Emperor and his queens

A savagely majestic slice of history that catapulted the show to no.1 spot again...

Hot and handsome Abba Huzoor...😳

The adorable maamujaan...

Chand boondon ke mohtaaj hain hum...

Thank you dear ladies and gentlemen.

Pranam.😊

Alvida and Khuda Hafiz.😊

Great post and great pictures.

I am feeling very nostalgic today. Epecially like your lines:

"I had wished that the serial had ended in a song and dance seq, the awaam praising their king and queen followed by a longer soul talk and a longer recollection." - this would have been memorable!

As you said ,The casting pre leap was just superb! I wish they could have brought back Ashwini through a small flashback in todays episode. Special salute to the hardwork this cast put in for 2 long years. Phew !

@bold.. Very true. It is very rare for a soap to have everything just in place.. The cast, the story, the sets and the grandeur!! Kudos to the PH for casting the right cast not just the leads, every single character including the eunuchs !! I missed Aswini when Mahamanga died and its rare to miss a villain in serials 😆

And I'm going to miss the expert takes on Forum. My association with IF is short and I barely visit other forums yet I feel JA forum got better sagacious members than the rest!! I may be wrong, but I'd love to be right!! Nice reading your posts Sandy.. though we haven't interacted much one-on-one I used to follow you in Divi's threads.

Great post Sandhya! I don't know if you remember me but I also used to hang around the forum during the "Golden Days" of Jodha Akbar. I stopped watching a while back but all this nostalgia and Jodha Akbar ending makes me want to revisit those episodes I missed. I did enjoy the show during its run and I plan on catching this last episode.
