Friends, I liked the episode today very much. Although the whole episode centred around this pregnancy issue in general, there wasn't just one single coherent thread running through the episode today. In fact, it seemed as if there were three separate scenes of fabulously executed characterisation, holding the episode together.

The first of the powerful scenes today was the Ruqaiya-Hoshiyar scene. The second one was the Jodha-Jalal-Ruqaiaya face-off scene. And the third one was that scene of Jalal being called upon to give justice at the Diwan-E-Aam to the man who was accusing his wife of adultery.

Why these three scenes seemed so powerful is because in each of these scenes the characters involved seemed to show us a new side of themselves. Certain sides of the people concerned had not been very clearly articulated earlier, and today's episode helped us understand them a lot better. We got some good insights into their inner motivations.

Without too much of a preamble, let me get to these scenes directly, so that you can all see if you agree or disagree with my views on these:

The Ruq-Hoshiyaar scene: Fairness that bodes well for the future

Almost at the beginning of the episode we were treated to an amazing scene between Ruquaiya and Hoshiyaar, where Ruquaiya was sitting in her usual arrogant posture. I thought were were going to be subjected today also to more of her arrogance. But the scene took a whole different turn when Hoshiyaar, wanting to flatter Ruq and boost her confidence made a terrible faux pas.

Hoshiyaar said: "Don't worry Ruquaiya Begum, you can still have your waaris and your Marium Uz Zamani title, if we can somehow neutralize this baby of Jodha's". Ruquaiya turned around sharply and breathed fire at Hoshiyaar! In one moment there, she became someone I wanted to know more closely, because she lost all hint of vampness and acquired the uncompromising face of forthrightness, fairness and justice!

She said an outright and vehement "No" to Hoshiyaar's plan, but she gave three reasons for this and each reason was very revealing in and of itself:

a. She said "No" because it was her Jalal's child! That was the Ruq we have all somewhat seen before as the defender of everything that belonged to "her Jalal", and this defence of what belonged to him seems to come straight from the loyalties of childhood friendship more than just the loyalties of being his wife.

b. She said "No" because she knew the pain a mother feels at losing a baby, having had a nasty miscarriage herself quite recently. Even here we all can believe we know this Ruq, because she showed nothing more than naturally deep empathy for another woman going through the same pains that she had experienced. Up till this point nothing Ruq said made us think differently of her than we have done before.

c. She said "No" because she did not think her ambitionns for a title and rank and status and a waaris should allow her to hurt anybody, not even Jodha! Now this was a side of Ruq that was always lurking in our minds as a possibility, but it came right out today and hit us in the face ... it made us all sit up in awe of her uncompromisingly fair disposition. Previously Ruq has shown us how ruthlessly ambitious she was for the tile of Marium Uz Zamani, and for being the one to give Jalal his waaris. Given that knowledge of her, how refreshing it then was for us to find out today that even those ambitions were not enough for her to want to trample over others to get to her goals. Not even the prospect that her adversary was Jodha (who was ostensibly stealing Jalal away from her) made her want to destroy Jodha's child or Jodha's happiness in her own quest for title and power.

The character of Ruq was redeemed very, very powerfully by the Creatives today, and I have a feeling that this is just the beginning of a phase when Ruq will time and again surprise us all by offering more insights into her very interesting and fairness-driven personality. It seems now very possible that she may reconcile to the Jodha-Jalal love more easily than we thought, and rather than oppose it, she may very well become its biggest supporter in times of crisis, when an extra voice is needed in their cause. Ruq may be vulnerable to Maham's machinations for a while, but eventually we can all have faith that when time to decide comes, Ruq will always decide to do what is fair, just and principled.

Yesterday I was a bit perplexed that she was constantly telling Jalal "Sleep with whoever you want, but let me know of it". I felt as if it was a distatsteful thing to say! But today when I look at Ruq, I see a woman (a girl-woman, actually) who wants not power per se, but "informational power". That's all she asks. Whether she is Begum-E-Khas or Marium Uz Zamani, her coveted audha is all about "knowledge power". If Jalal and Jodha, when they are deeply in love, can find a way not to eliminate Ruq from their circle, but to co-opt her and give her an "information-oriented senior role" in their lives, Ruq would I think be very satisfied that her "best friend Jalal" has not deserted her and that Jodha has become a new friend via Jalal. It is very probable that Ruq may then say "Any friend of Jalal is also a friend of mine" and the three may live in a new kind of mutually comfortable harmony. Let's see ... interesting possibilities lie ahead!


The Jodha-Jajal-Ruq face-off: who achieved what from this very important scene?

This second scene I am about to describe was the scene where Ruq comes into Jalal's room, a bit miffed that he had summoned her. She says churlishly: "I came because I had to follow your orders. But as we are no longer bound by friendship, there isn't very much to say either, so I'm going". She gets halted midway from making that grand exit by Jodha entering the room, determined to accost Jalal.

A thought occurred to me at that moment: "Should Jodha have decided to accost Jalal with Ruq as a bystander? Was it again a reversal to the Jodha who seemed to care a hoot for Jalal's prestige and ego and had decided to deride him in front of Ruq?"

But then the real import of this scene hit mme and gave me a new look at Jodha's motivations. Look at it for a moment from Jodha's point of view. Just two days ago, Ruq had held her captive in the corridor saying "You are eating into my allotted hours with Jalal, You are stealing Jalal from me. You who said you hate Jalal and want no relations with him have now slept with him. So where are your precious principles that you so boast about? One night with him and now you are desperate?" Jodha had replied all this with sarcasm and then straightness, saying Jalal had honoured her wishes and nothing had happened between her and Jalal.

Jodha later also told Jalal to advise Ruq that shewas not stealing him from Ruq, so Jodha knew well that Jalal knew Ruq had been speaking derisively to her and even blamed her as a husband-thief. Jodha must have also sensed that Jalal was not fully able to control Ruq's ire - for if he had been able to do that, Ruq would not have tried to accuse Jodha directly in that corridor. Given all this background, it must have seemed providential to Jodha that Ruq and Jalal were in the same room together when she came to accost Jalal about his misbehaviour on that stormy night.

It was not something Jodha had perhaps planned (to talk to both Jalal and Ruq together) but it was fortuitous that they were all there together, because she saw three advantages in accusing Jalal of breaking his promise that stormy night in front of Ruq. In one stroke, she would be able to tell Jalal what she thought of him and his lust; she would be able to reassure Ruq that she had been telling the truth that she and Jalal did not sleep together; and she would be able to let both Ruq and Jalal together know that she was not interested in Jalal in any romantic or wifely way at all. She must have felt relieved that they were both there, and both would get her message loud and clear, once and for all!

Interestingly, when Jodha started questioning Jalal, we found Ruq re-iterating the same questions to Jalal for her own reasons: "Yes tell us what you did and why!" Ruq's own mind seem to latch onto the fact that Jalal had lied to her and owed her an explanation as well.

What Jalal then did was also extremely interesting. He saw that replying Jodha's accusation with another accusation of his own (regarding her "affair") would only reduce his own standing in Ruq's eyes. Already Ruq was treating him as a liar, he could not afford Ruq also thinking he was being cuckolded! So he chose not to refute Jodha's claims at all nor offer a counter-complaint about her adultery. He took it on himself to act as if that night had indeed happened between himself and Jodha ... and he merely said "You were in and out of consciousness that night. You made me promise self-control, but well, you apparently lost your own self-control - or this baby wouldn't be on the way now, would it?"

The scene was important to me because while it seemed to be overtly a dialogue about that fateful night and what happpened there, at another covert level it was all about the three of them doing image-management in front of one another!

Jodha wanted to show Jalal and Ruq that she wanted no physical relationship with Jalal, and that was her power. Jalal wanted to show Ruq and Jodha that he could do as he wished and even present that information if he wished and in any way he wished - as a truth, a half-truth or an untruuth - and nobody could question him about it, such was his power. Ruq wanted to show Jodha and Jalal that she knew both of them had lied to her, and their exposure was her power.

Delivering justice at the Diwan-E-Aam: Jalal's alter ego speaks his mind!

The third of my pick of scenes was at the Diwan-E-Aam. After an angry Jalal swordfought his soldiers to vent his frustrations, Atga Khan found himself also on the ground reminding Jalal that he was due to dispense justice on several cases at the Diwan-E-Aam. A red-eyed and fearfully angry Jalal went to the sabha, and began proceedings in ruthless style. He punished a petty thief for a petty robbbery with the diktat to have his hands cut off. People at the sabha gaped at his mercilessness and his unbridled temper.

Then came the very interesting dispute of man almost exactly in Jalal's circumstances. His wife had taken another lover and was pregnant with this lover's child, and the man wanted justice as she had committed adultery. It took barely a couple of minutes before Jalal starting seeing himself as that man, seeing Jodha as that woman, and seeing the arguments of that case as his own story!

It was an interesting idea by the Creatives, I thought, to help us see inside the mind of Jalal, using this ploy of juxtaposing him and Jodha on the characters at dispute at his court! Usually we have characters doing self-talks to reveal their minds to us. Sometimes when Creatives need to show conflicted minds, they use the antaratmas trick (when two antaratmas appear and start arguing the case to and fro till the character sees which way he should go). But the idea of using the characters of a family law dispute to make Jalal identify himself with them - and thus reveal his own mind to us via their dialogues was very well-done, I thought.

Okay now comes the big question: as the case was being argued, were the thoughts those of the real man in that case and his wife talking about each other ... or were they all the thoughts of Jalal betraying his own mind and betraying how he perceived the thoughts of Jodha with respect to himself?

For example, the man in the case said:"I love this woman, I have so much mohabbat for her, and yet she does this behind my back, taking another lover. She has spurned my love!" The woman in the case then says: "I don't love this man. I was forced into marriage with him. I do not like his nearness, his touch, his love or his relationship with me. I love another and am carrying his child which is a child born of love. I want a divorce from this man."

Now was the man's dialogue in real, with only Jalal juxtaposing his face on the man's face ... or were the dialogues the thoughts ofJalal in relation to Jodha? Was Jalal in fact admitting he had mohabbat for Jodha? And again was the dialogue that of the real woman with Jodha's face merely pasted over her face ... or were her dialogues the imagination of Jalal about the kind of feelings he believed Jodha had for him?

The lines are blurred here. Skeptics will feel that Jalal in that hallucination was mouthing the real man's dialogues, as Jodha was mouthing the real woman's dialogues. Other who want to believe they've had a glimpse of Jalal's mind today would like to believe Jalal was juxtaposing not just his and Jodhas face on those people but also his thoughts on the man and woman in question - and thus revealing that he loved Jodha while he believed Jodha did not love him back and still hated his touch!

Anyway, at the end of it all anger - explosive anger - consumed Jalal as he declared punishment by stoning to be held in abeyance for the woman and her lover, after her delivery. Great scene, folks and kudos to the Creatives for this unexpected way of showing Jalal's angst!

Two other small issues: Maham's suspicions and the Maulana's role:

At the end of the episode the precap was as expected: Jalal now is counter-blaming Jodha for the "affair" which she is ready to vehemently oppose! But there were two other small issues also in the story to look out for ...

One, Maham is getting suspicions about Jalal's behaviour being moody and "not all there". Where will these suspicions lead? Spoilers say though that Sharif, not Maham, may be the bad egg in this track, so let's watch this space!

Two, Hamida has done the "Maulana blessing" thing again. Now if this Maulana is the kind that gets holy visions, he may well tell Jalal, Jodha and Hamida in private that he is not seeing any sanket of a baby at all in his mind's eye, and so Jalal should investigate if Jodha is really pregnant. That may set Jalal off on a "disprove the pregnancy" chase. While Jalal and Jodha may be relieved, Hamida may lose her beatific smile!

was just waiting for your analysis...awesome yaar...you put the right emotions of Akdha...Ruku in this fiasco...here is my take
Ruku-Hoshiyar

"chanta laga haye laga"🀣...just when i thought its a history show and EK will not bring her famous slap...she prove me wrong...and brought in her trademark slap...its just that its not b/w Akdha...but ruku tamache pe tamacha on hoshiyar face🀣

coming to the scene...thank god she is not turning into a black character...she is is a psycho...obsessed...mad for power...but she does have a good heart that will never wish ill for jallu...her BFF...her rant for power will never go off...but when jodha is pregnant with jallu's kid...she will be the first one to take care of jodha and her son...

its sync with the history...i read that ruku in history was very fond of jehangir(salim)and loved him like a son...

in this scene...ruku showed how much pain she is still bearing of loosing her kid...its the most painful moment when a mother looses a child..i could totally understand ruku's feelings...

it was a good scene...lavina was awesome in the scene...

i am glad that i will not have to hate ruku...as i just cherish her friendship with jallu...she does have a heart...

Jodha's Pain To Kanha

jodha is expressing her pain to kanha...i do feel bad for her...she has fall into a trap to a conspiracy...all thanks to her motor mouth...but then in here we could exactly know what she wishes for...

she wants to be a mother...she doesn't mind if jalal impregnated her...but all this should happen with true love...passion and trust...she wants her child to be a love child not a burden out of marriage...she wants jallu to win over her with love so that their relationship could go for the next level...which is physical relationship...

she feels betrayed..angry...humiliated that jallu have broken his promise...

her mind is focus and firm upon what she wants...love and trust...than she will give permission to jallu come close to her and consummate their marriage...

we can't blame her becos her marriage is not normal...its neither a love marriage nor arrange marriage...its political marriage filled with hatred and revenge...so the process in this relationship does go slow...

Blessings And More Blessings

both husband-wife are deeply hurt...wound...betrayed...angry...heartbroken...on the perspective of their POV for each other...they look so lifeless...i feel bad for them...this was not what they wanted...

its surprising also that the way jallu is reacting is not like that way he reacted on MC track...he takes a calm and slow move on the situation which is good so that in future he forced to think in a good way...

jodha's words to jallu in ShahNama verse "jald baazi aur gusse se koi kaam nahin baanta hai...naarmi se saap bhi apni surag se bahar nikhal jata hai"...this verse is exactly going to happen in this track...

being haste and angry like in MC track its not going to bring out the truth...jallu have to play his games in his own twisted way being cool and calm and he will get the truth out...who is behind this preganancy conspiracy

MA needs to apply a post in CID...she knows jallu from head to toe...nothing can hidden from her when it comes to jallu...whether its his love for jodha or hatred...

Jalal-Jodha-Ruku

seriously jallu must be cursing himself for marrying this two womensπŸ˜†...they have made his life hell with questions and answers😑...i feel so bad for him...he already so hurt😭...and here come the two ladies eating his brains away🀒...he is must thanking the lord for salima begum...as she demands no expectations...questions...answers for him...🀣

here come the baaghin pouncing over jallu for her question why did he break his promise...i like the way jodha stop ruku as she is too very important in this matter...well i have to thank jodha for that becos...if ruku leaves...after this convo...she is going to eat jallu's brains with questions and answers...he is already in anger...its going to bring up his BP even high...so good move by jodha

now questions...questions...question...but no answer...neither jallu has an answer for jodha nor jodha has an answer for jallu...back to square one...doubting each other...pain..betrayal...anger were clearly shown in Akdha's eyes...perfect performance by Rajat-Paridhi...they nailed it...what a natural chemistryπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘

it get intensely hot when jallu closer to jodha and ask her to leave the room as he doesn't want to see her face...

whenever Akdha in ghrina mode...we get hot and passionate scenes...i hope when they are in romantic mood...we still get such extra hot and passionate scenes...

once again with silence...jallu-jodha-ruku triangle back to square one with no answers and explainations

Jallu's Extreme Anger

the heartless man have started to feel for jodha..."Gehra Gaav"...and noone have given him but jodha did...this is a first step of his feelings for jodha...just look into those eyes with so much pain...anger...passion he was very heartbroken and vulnerable...did we ever see such emotions in jallu before...i guess never...he was so strong to overcome all storms but here he was totally broken...his eyes spoke so much of pain...he couldn't vent his anger infront of his family...people...he is in a deep mess of turmoil...so many questions...so many wild imaginations but there is no answer to it at all...with no solution...it made him a beast for a short moment...and injure all those soldiers...including Atgah Saab...he came to sense and realise he did a mistake...

this one scene really showed how much jodha is affecting him...day by day his passion and obsession growing deeper for jodha...when he is calm...he doesn't show it out...but when there is anger in him...nothing could hide within himself...he does reveal out through his eyes and actions...

a baby step towards love feeling is already taken by jallu...

Diwan-E-Aam-Cruel But Heartbroken King

jallu is totally in action...though he is in turmoil...dilemma...anger...hatred...pain...he did not take a off day to rest...he still does his duties as a Shahenshah...

when the case of stealing was being investigated...the cruel heartless king was back...everyone was shocked by his verdict...its unlike him at all...deep down...he is still very intact with inner turmoil...and once again jodha is affecting him...

this one scene hinted that jodha can make him soft and kind-hearted person...she is also the one who can turn this man into the cruel and heartless king once again...

now came the most important case...case of infidelity...where the women has cheated her husband and carrying her lover's baby in her womb...he totally could imagine himself in the place of the common man...and jodha in the place of that shameless women who cheated her husband...when he imagine his scenario with this couple...there was so much anger and hatred in his eyes...he was not in his sense at all...instead of giving punishment to the couple...he was giving punishment for his scenario...he wants to punish jodha the same way...he was so hurt and heartbroken that he ordered the man to take her away from his eyes...everyone from Hamida and gang to evil gang Adam...MA...Cheappudin...could sense a change in jallu's behaviour...this was not the same king who used to be...he is someone different...

in this whole scene...one could clearly see...that jodha is affecting his brain and heart...in this whole scenes... whether the verdict or actions in jallu...everything was controlled by jodha...everyone could witness that he was not the same Shahenshah...but then he does have a heart to not punish the baby in the womb...πŸ‘

one thing is clear tdy in this scenes...jodha is affecting him completely...slowly and steadily she is immersing into jallu's soul...whether his anger...hatred...revenge...heartbroken in this scenes was all related to jodha...nothing was abt Shahenshah-E-Hind

Face To Face

once again...maulvi blessings...MA invites jallu...knowing him inside and outside...she feels that jallu is not happy and is hiding something...the CID brain she possessed...i am very sure she is going to find out what is bothering jallu...

Akdha face to face with anger...betrayal...hatred all written on their face and eyes...what a passion...what a chemistry...no words to define

Superb wrote up..!! πŸ‘πŸΌ
today epi was actually really good..!

"Now if this Maulana is the kind that gets holy visions, he may well tell Jalal, Jodha and Hamida in private that he is not seeing any sanket of a baby at all in his mind's eye, and so Jalal should investigate if Jodha is really pregnant." this is the exactly thought came to my mind when I heard maulana's name.
I really want this to happen as it will make more sense!

Awesome analysis Mansi πŸ‘πŸ‘ Yet another detailed, insightful take of the episode.πŸ‘πŸΌ
Jodha and her lament to KaanhaJi brought tears to my eyes. A pregnant woman feels immense love and caring for the child she is carrying ...its a special feeling which Jodha wants for herself too, had the child been conceived in love... but this is a shattering moment where her honor has been taken away...the feeling of hurt, anger, betrayal, shock and helplessness was so well portrayed. πŸ‘

Ruqaiyya slapping Hoshiyar for even suggesting the harm to Jalal's child was well done. Had she not done that, she would have gone to the dark side and become irredeemable! You have aptly written that as long as Ruqs will be given her ' Audha ' ...' Informational power' she will in due course accept Jodha and Jalal together. She really doesn't have that elusive something that Jalal is seeking with Jodha.
Loved the Trio-scene initiated by Jodha. Superb analysis from you explaining the dynamics.πŸ‘ Jalal's perplexed look with both his Begum's accosting him made me 🀣 If at any time Jodha and Ruqu became friends, only God can save Jalal from losing his mind completely.πŸ˜†
Loved the intense moment when Jalal gets up close and personal with Jodha to leave the roomπŸ˜‰
Maham instantly sensing that Jalal is troubled ,tells one how minutely she monitors him and his expressions...always ready to take advantage of the situation , to manipulate Jalal.
Diwaan-e-Aam and sword fight gives one an insight into Jalal's state of mind...the turbulent emotions affecting his decision making. As you rightly pointed out, its all about Jodha and her influence... on his mind and heart.
Precap: Jodha and Jalal face-off with her hand stop and pointed finger in his face πŸ˜‰
Looking forward to that.πŸ˜ƒ

I love reading ur ananlysis. You always have unique style of writing and different perspective. I try to read it most of the time and like the post but not able to leave the comments so pardon me for it. thx for pm yesterday.

my fav. part of analysis:

Jodha wanted to show Jalal and Ruq that she wanted no physical relationship with Jalal, and that was her power. Jalal wanted to show Ruq and Jodha that he could do as he wished and even present that information if he wished and in any way he wished - as a truth, a half-truth or an untruuth - and nobody could question him about it, such was his power. Ruq wanted to show Jodha and Jalal that she knew both of them had lied to her, and their exposure was her power.


this was bang-on. it really conveys from all three of theirs perspective.
