@ poppy 2009: what if this time around also King bharmal takes the proposal to Jalal... I mean knowing that Jalal wants Jodha earlier...😕 But from the promo, looks like Jalal says openly that he wants Jodha...😕 n i think the reason Jalal accepted the marriage, there was a issu of passage thru right 😕
Arre, the show is going completely fictional! The film was slightly more authentic!
Firstly, there was no way in hell that Akbar could have ever seen Jodha before marrying her! Rajput women / girls observed strict purdah and never even stepped out of their homes without covering themselves from top to toe! And Jodha was a Rajput Princess...to even imagine, that she could go out with her face uncovered is inconcievable!
I think in the show, the creatives simply want to show Jalal's passionate side and how he desires to have Jodha as his own...hence, they took this creative liberties!
But it is documented pretty clearly, that indeed Raja Bharmal went to Akbar with his daughter's proposal, when he heard that Akbar's general Sham-shuddin was planning to attack Amer! Akbar probably hadn't even heard about Jodha till then!😆
No idea what the creatives are planning to show here...they might stick to what happened and show that indeed Bharmal goes to Akbar with Jodha's proposal or they might show that Akbar attacks Amer and then asks for Jodha in lieu of Amer's freedom! (This will definitely be more romantic, though totally historically incorrect😆)
