Completely agree.

Whenever someone asks Jaywantabai to stand up to US, she immediately invokes her "patni dharm". "Patni dharm" it may be, but does "patni dharm" encourage you to remain a silent and passive bystander when you know that your own son is facing danger? What was she really worried about more - Udai Singh (again) pretending that she doesn't exist, or Pratap's safety?

These days, I have a lot more respect for Sajjabai. She seems to have matured ever since Shakti left...

When Sajjabai boldly told US that he hated Pratap's rising popularity with the Mewar janta, and that is why he was banishing Pratap from the palace, did Sajjabai's "patni dharm" disappear?

When Sajjabai decided to leave the palace, and she informed US regarding her decision, US told her that he wasn't bothered at all. She, in turn, told him that it was clear he doesn't care about anybody anymore. By speaking so fearlessly to US, does it mean Sajjabai's "patni dharm" has vanished?

Also, what kind of "patni dharm" permits a wife to ensure that her husband remains completely blind to the happenings of the palace, and fails to see any reason because of her own manipulating schemes? Wonderful "patni dharm", isn't it?

Or, does Jaywantabai feel that her own "brand" of patni-dharm is the "right" one, which is why she is behaving like such a scaredy cat? Does she seriously believe that US acknowledging her existence is more important than Pratap's safety?

Why is it so difficult for Jaywantabai to realize that US is a henpecked husband in front of Dhirbai? And, yet she keeps harping about "patni dharm"...

@Debashree and @Rishabh

Thanks guys. 😊

@Shani

You spoke my mind!! 👍🏼 I have exactly same questions about Jaywantabai and her behaviour now. I don't understand what the hell is she doing?!
And which Kshatrani, which Rajputani is so so fearful? Like you said, I also wonder if this was true as per history or is it some creative liberty taken by CVs. If it is the latter then I must say CVs took the worst kind of creative liberty! Their drama makes no sense. 🤢

Sajja has done wonders in last week. She literally deserves a bravery medal for her words and act! Shakti would have been so happy to see his mother being so assertive and rubbing the truth on US' face as it is just like he does! 😉 She did not tremble or budge in face of US or Bhaatiyani even once. Quite something for a woman who was introduced as a weak, meek, childish, clueless and nervous character. 😊

JB could have done a lot more different things which she did not do.

And main problem is that she is still being scared and manipulated by Dheerbai and trying to limit Pratap as per her command when he is in exile too! Like how she asked his friend to tell him to live like an ordinary person and not do any brave act! All because Dheerbai threatened!

She is not staying there to cleverly know what Dheerbai is upto. Rather Dheerbai keeps an eye on her and does not let her breathe. She was ready to leave palace but stopped again by Dheerbai's manipulation!

She is a puppet in hands of Dheerbai now.

i m also woman & i can understand mother's point of view...
But JB is just not only a mother, she is maharani, she has some responsibility for her country also moreover she is a rajput & till now her character shows all those facts beautifully but now we cant recognize this JB...
And also she knows her son, his ability then how can she do this...

I will also add to Debasree's argument. JB is not just a mother. She is a Maharani, Kshatrani and Rajputani. She has certain responsibilities and expectations of her. A whole land and its people look up to the royal family for their protection and administration. She has forgotten her own dharma and lost sanity in Dheerbai's threats but is also limiting Pratap now - even after he's away, and transferring her suffocation to him.

A Kshatriya's dharma is to protect his people. JB is preventing Pratap from helping people now! Trashing his own dharma too.

This dialogue was her nadir that Pratap's CM was bigger threat than a man eating tiger to him! 😲

If she's so clever then why didn't she ever alert Pratap and tell at least him to be careful of his choti ma? Why didn't she expose her face to him?

She can't talk to US. But she can talk to her son.

Thanks to her failure of talking and handling things, everyone is suffering and Dheerbai is laughing!
