One half beautiful, the other half sheer crap! - Page 3

awesome analysis but i hate this suicide thing it shows jodha as a cowardice which clearly she is not jodha knew Jalal loved Maham Anga very much yet she accused Maham Anga in front of him tht shows how gutsy she actually is. So if they show Jodha attempting suicide I wud be very dissapointed

There was no sound at all in SBS or SBB today about any suicide, so I hope it was just their pack of lies yesterday!

Mansi I think seperation track is required in this track...If they are seperated for few weeks then probably they both will realise each other's worth and their own mistakes ...

Right now, he seems more likely to go after with the stoutest jooti he possesses, to lay her upside down on his knee and give her a dozen of the best and juiciest on her derriere😉. Might be a good idea, come to think of it, Petruchio style. The crabby wench is asking for it!😉

I want Jalal to go after her...

Mansi,

A very cogent and persuasive analysis, to which I am sorry I did not respond earlier - I was too caught up with my own Ramayana for today.

No, Rajat would have had no trouble remembering those lines, for he is an experienced actor by now, and after all, young theatre artists have to remember their parts in the whole play and there can be no retake if they muff a line.

When I read the first part of the section below in your post, I felt that you were being rather premature by attributing this approach to Jalal, but then I saw that you have qualified it adequately.

Eventually, as they say "When you love something set it free. If it comes back it is yours, if it doesn't it never was!" This verse seems made for the situation that Jalal was in yesterday.

When I quote that verse I am conscious of the fact that it asks the one in love to set free what one loves to know if it is yours at all or it chooses to go away. I thought in yesterday's dialogue of Jalal, for the first time, I heard the articulation of love in its most nascent form, where even the person in love may not have suspected that he was as yet in love!

More than this, I see him as attempting a last throw of the dice.As I wrote on my own thread for this episode:

When Jodha asks, at the end of his apology, whether that was all he had to say to her, Jalal's face is still and inscrutable. His eyes look not outwards, but inwards into his own zehen. He is preparing for the final throw of the dice, for his final gamble. Like all good gamblers, he hopes to win, but he can take it on the chin without flinching if fate decrees otherwise.

Today, as I wrote elsewhere, it is a classic case of crossed wires.

Jodha is not angry now about her patidev's past failings.

She is crabby and tearful because she wants to stay but does not want to lose face with Jalal by confessing that to him, or even letting it be known indirectly by, say wearing a green joda - the one in which she sang that paean to Rajput valour, perhaps. It would be perfect provided he recognised it! 😉

He also has crossed wires, and thinks she wants to leave, so he is not able to help her out as she would have wanted him to do, by simply asserting Aap yahan se kahin nahin ja rahi hain, Jodha Begum.

So she complains bitterly about never having been happy in Agra, and also makes it a point to try and make him feel guilty by telling him, complete with the doli-arthi lines, how disgraceful it would be for her to go back to Amer as a wife discarded by her husband.

No wonder Jalal, who cannot understand what more he is expected to do to placate her, and why this dratted woman can never say two civil words to him, is left climbing the wall and clenching his fists, and leaves without telling her what he wanted to, probably about the Meena Bazaar. He must have gritted his teeth in the corridor and muttered Women!!

Typical Mills and Boon, in short, and in its way, comic. I liked it that by precap time, he was back to being the Shahenshah. I was afraid, after the public apologies in the open court, that he might start going the marshmallow way.

I do not think he has made any arrangements at all as yet to send her back. He is now assuming that she has decided to leave, but his instructions to her in the precap seem to me to indicate that he is in no hurry to do anything.

He is waiting for her to tell her clearly what she wants, and not to shoot from his shoulder, and at him, turning all the laws of ballistics on their head!😉

Finally, my dear, don't be so contemptuous of Jalal's tafteesh. Points b & c are precisely the sort of thing that would have delighted a counter-intelligence agent, as also Le Carre's iconic secret agent George Smiley.
