[Damn as it is I am getting late for Navratri and I just lost all that I typed..so here's not an analysis- but, a few questions...]
Today's Ja-Jo scene left me confounded...not elated, not depressed - plain confused!
Can you please answer my questions and help me relish an otherwise enjoyable episode more?
I was under the impression that Jalal and Jodha's relationship after the Mohan fiasco (according to Zee, not just any spoilers) was supposed to move an inch closer, not ten inches away
Why this renewed hatred between them?
Did they forget that they were relatively cordial after the suicide and during the Ajmer trip? Today their sarcastic comments seemed more like two bald men fighting for a comb - i.e. they suited no purpose!I thought they'd have more profound things to discuss now - not cordial, but more profound than plain tu-tu main-main. This is back to how they were 1-2 days post their wedding.
JODHA
(I know I defended her in Shyamala aunty's thread, but I didn't realize she'd be back with such negativity today)
Why didn't Jodha ask him how he felt even ONCE? The last bit of empathy I saw her express was during the 'don't-drink-water' bit
Why didn't she seek his forgiveness even once? Why didn't she express gratitude for the fact that he'd forgiven her for the incident altogether?
Why haven't both of them shared even ONE SINGLE point/update/discussion about Ajmer or the tiger attack? Doesn't he have anything to ask? Doesn't she have anything to say?
She was so elated the previous day about her Ajmer trip..why no remnants of that happiness today? She was praising him to the skies the previous day. The Jodha today seemed like a different Jodha to the one yesterday - with no particular reason for it whatsoever!
Why isn't she elated that he's fixed an alliance for her sister? Why so many doubts hidden within? After all, even her father has confirmed that the groom is a worthy one!
Why is she annoyed about Jalal visiting Amer with all of his family/troops? Who is she to say that he can't? His family..his troops..he fixed the alliance..his Amer now...
Why are they portraying Jalal like he's committing a villainous act by orchestrating a profitable alliance? Many many royal weddings would have been political alliances. Take it this way - Bharmal wouldn't have fixed an alliance for his daughters that WAS NOT profitable for him, right?
JALAL
Has he forgotten that he'd thought she was a lonely soul after the suicide attempt? I thought he was empathetic now...why the renewed hatred today?
Why didn't he thank her for saving him OR rebuke her for putting him at risk?
Why didn't he have ANYTHING to ask about how she saved him?
His smirks post the suicide and during Ajmer were more toned down...why were his more-than-EVIDENTLY-VILLAINISH sneers and smirks turned up many notches today? Is it because of the gashes on his face or is it because the Cvs have told him that his villainous streak is to continue for a few more months?
Why the 2 minute drama with Ruqs and a false proclamation of the no-dil bit? Then, who was the Jalal at Ajmer? Is the Jalal who donated his pagdi to the baba the same as the one today?
Why the sudden renewed interest in jhukaafying-Rajvanshi's heads? We hadn't seen that bit for quite a while now...thought it was behind him now...why, he'd even forgiven a common assassin...the 'I want to see them bow to me' sounded like his BK days!
__________________________________
I don't mind hatred at all...in fact, prefer it to any form of love-game-scheming that spoilers claimed could happen...However, I only hope the Cvs would give us better transition and justification of why our leads seem to be suffering from such starkly contrasting mood swings one day to next? That and partial amnesia?
Some things I loved from today
The sun shining on Jalal's face as he makes that false confession. How amazingly handsome he looked?
Jodha's tears of happiness as she sees her father happy - through the purdah -in court
Jalal shutting up Ruq, MA& Atgah in different manner and letting them know that visiting Amer was important for the Sultanat (Ya! Right!)
Adham pronouncing 'I have decided that I shall stop thinking from today!'😆
PRECAP - I am so looking forth to the MP-Jalal conversation tomorrow
MP to Jalal - 'jahfskjh jsfkhs aan baan asjfha'
Jalal - 'Eh?'
