No, Kamal, if he hit her for having done something which he considered beyond the pale, that is not being an abusive husband. That is normal for the age and the circumstances. In fact, Jalal is not a wife beater, if he had been Petruchio, he would have caught hold of Jodha long ago, laid her upside down across his knee, and given her 50 of the best and juiciest with a stout slipper. It has nothing to do with being respectful to women in general.

The curious thing today was the normally intrepid Jodha was plain scared as he advanced on her, though in the second encounter, she had returned to her hamein bhai nahin lagta mantra.

I do not know about all the rest, but I would any day prefer a real romance to mere physical attraction. In any case, on prime time TV, how much of the primal urge do you think they could show?😉 I am perfectly happy with no primal urge at all; I am a prude and that sort of thing makes me uncomfortable!

As for the pirbaba get up, perhaps Jalal is out in Agra in disguise, like Haroun al Rashid, trying to spot skulduggery. Hrithik does it in the film. The curious thing is what is Jodha doing out in the streets then?

Hi Shyamala,
Can you or anyone please try to explain why the HELL r the CVs continuously showing Jalal as an abusive husband ,specially in case of Jodha ??😡😡 Even Today he was out to strike or gag her had it not been for the MA intervening !! (History says that the Mughal royals were very respectful towards their Ladies...) And , my headache shoots up some more notch

es , seeing Apni Jodha , equally Hell-Bent on receiving a Good Spanking/Tamaacha from her Pig-head Hubby with her even sillier Yojnaas to expose the culprit...🤢🤢

what we are seeing here is NOT a love story , but a tale of TWO EQUALLY SILLY & BADDIMAAG YOUNG BOY AND GIRL , who, if not for the elders like Ammijaan, Bapusa, Maasa ,Bhaisa etc etc and some wiser ppl like Salima, Motibai, Shahabuddin etc. would have by now murdered each other by Cutting off each others heads!!😕🤢
(I wonder how with this Limited and Scrambled intelligence, Jalal dreams of building an empire on his own🤣... And ,our Bird-brain Jodha dear dreams of making her Matrubhumi proud 🤣??)

Eternal Question is that ,how come these two attractive,young and hot-blooded male-female specimen ignore the Primal urge and keep Quarreling , wasting their own as well as our precious time??😉

As per the pre-cap, seemed to hv entirely forgotten the Badi-Ammi and intended Tamaacha episode, Jalal decides to stalk his Begum in disguise and ask her for alms as well ...for what Exactly??🤔 Does he still suspects her and wants to verify whether she goes out in the market to shop more"Dature ka Ark" or similar poisonous concoctions?? No wonder our Jodha doesn't take a second to recognize , as even with Fakir getup...her Hubby can't let go his "Trade-marked" Furtive & Sly glances at her...!!!😛
Since am not sure abt the intended plot so am waiting for 2mrw to reveal what the Cvs hv in mind..!!

Regards,
Kamal

P.S.Meanwhile, I think we may get the taste of "Tiger Treat " on Friday Precap part..!! So have to prepare for another uneasy but promising weekend to come!!

Hi Shyamala,
Well, I know the limits of National TV and am not suggesting any Real Primal scenes , but the enforcement of Natural Law of Attraction...which means Shudhh Romance and Lagaao...nothing else 😃..!!
Isn't it very very unrealistic for the two of them to be always saying harsh words & exchanging Angry Glares instead of shy and indulgent glances once in a while at least??😳
All the more when Jodha is actually coming out Squeaky Clean even from the Markiest of Allegations?? 🤔 I guess Jalal simply can't get out of his Ataalique-mode with Jodha where he feels he can scold ,spank and shout on his Wifey , Anytime Anywhere...!! 😛
And the disguise thing cannot be for some other case investigation , as all Begums(and definitely Jodha) of Royal harem were forbidden to go out of the palace without permission(Remember the Pankh Kaatnaa and Paabandhiya lagoo dialogue of Jalal b4 JA marriage) ...hence Jalal surely does know where and when Jodha is going...
(Am a bit surprised to find Paridhi's Jodha giving "Soft look" with her large beautiful eyes instead of Glaring even after Badi-Ammi epi and Rajat's Jalal too, returning it with a bit "Pleasantly Surprised" stare!!😳 I wonder What made them cool off so soon ??😉)

Regards,
Kamal

I only watch it for Rajat and I do like PAridhi. If Rajat leaves, the shown will end for me.


It isn't a historical show at all - soldiers fighting without armor, begums showing their faces in public. Sheesh!

I am watching it only for Tokas too - I didn't care for the drama at first but he was good as Jalal at Amer before and after the wedding; now his character has become Chief of Police in Agra 😆 Good grief!

Maybe I can explain - this is not Mughal Sultanate - Amer Hindu tamasha. This is actually "Taming of the Shrew" in Agra.😕

Thanks a Lot Aunty, For replying I thought My post is lost between this Pile of messages😆 Anyways, What to you think about my Little Poem over there, In the First Post. The most Important Question, Where is Jodha Akbar 67?? No Post of yours is a National Emergency, Please Aunty Jaldi se Post kardo.

Thank you, Apurva! It was sheer chance that I spotted your post, for these mischievous lot of girls has hijacked my thread and buried in under a pile of messages between themselves!

No, I do not think Ruqaiya will trust Jodha or work with her. She only says, and to herself, not to Jalal, that Jodha is not so foolish as to try to incriminate Mahaam without any proof.

Thank you for sharing :)

I think the clash of opinions is happening because we are expecting the show to be shown exactly as how it should have been in the 16th century.

Certainly if that was priority in this show, then from day one, they would have shown Amer's princess her place. Her freedom to express and to question her father's decisions ... accompanying and meeting suryabaan, the whole fighting for moti to .. marrying jalal , yelling, screaming, anger , accusing, rude impolite behavior towards her husband is a big no no

personally , the disclaimer that they are showing in the beginning is true to its letter. They really are just showing every single character for one purpose and one purpose alone. Entertainment.

Add , Ekta's flavor to it.. what you get is a total illogical mumbo jumbo.

...

But I am not watching the show for his historic preciseness. I don't even expect the clothing to be matching of then day's wear. I am looking at the story as that.. a story. A fairy tale which has no bearing in history nor has any similarities to character, settings, mentality etc.

in my pov, if we were to watch this show and have the least expectation of it matching or being anywhere close to reality .. then well.. I think its better to change channel and watch discover India or the history channel.

I once read a book, a diary written by the shah jahan's daughter about her day to day life as to what happened in the harem. I finished the book, imagined the story and loved her perspective of life only to find in the last page of the book that it was all fiction!

:) I actually believed that , the character who wrote the dairy once existed (yes by name she did) and the interactions between her and every member of her family were real.

I was amused at myself that I did not bother to check what I was reading and kept reading, traveling into her world only to realize it was all baseless. But do I regret reading that book? Nope.

I think that is what Jodha Akbar is to me. That book, that has no touch base to historical reality. I am just loving the setting, the mood, the love, the hate, the characters, the story. Even if they don't make sense to me... it does tell me that the one who is making this show is one hec of a creative guy.

imho :It does not have to factual to be creative.


Hope did not offend anyone

beautiful reply Suchi ...this is what I expected from you...
