I am not in favor of this particular track because I think there could have been ample tracks and scenarios chosen to deepen their trust on one another.
I am sick and tired of pregnancy tracks, false pregnancy track, miscarriage tracks, forcing on a woman...all this have been done to death in all of BT shows but this being a historical show with real characters I expected the treatment to be different.
Anyway what has already been started has to be finished as well.
I had a major problem with Jodha today. I understand her pain and the humiliation she felt about being invaded by Jalal and at the contempt of her self-respect in his hands but certain things even a normal wife will do which she lacked as a princess.
Jalal also feels majorly betrayed and knows it is not his child but what I really liked was he painted that fake smile in front of his mom though he was burning from within. Yes he took it out on sword practice, he was not in himself but still he didn't make it known to his relatives and even to Ruqaiya about what he felt.
Maybe when he called Ruqaiya to his chamber he would have told her but she didn't want to hear anything and he left it at that. The problem I had was when Jodha walked in and asked Ruqaiya to stay back. I am not a person who is fond of washing dirty linen in public. I would have had no problems if Jodha fired Jalal in private when they were alone but why did she do it in front of Ruqaiya? Why include a 3rd person between your husband and yourself? Just because Ruqaiya is close to Jalal? Just because she told Ruqaiya before that nothing happened between Jalal and her? Just because Ruqaiya is Jalal's best friend and also loved Jalal? Whatever the reason I didn't find it palatable to see her bringing their own fights, misunderstanding, insults, questions in front of some one else?
Jalal could have given it back to her then and there. He could have pointed a finger at her character there itself in front of Ruqaiya and if he did I am sure Ruqaiya would have believed him over Jodha or at least would have given him a benefit of doubt. But he didn't! And that is definitely one up on Jodha for me. He kept her respect intact no matter what he personally felt about her character. He didn't insult her in front of Ruqaiya and neither did he try to pull Ruqaiya to side with him by telling Jodha something about her self-respect, character and nature. All he implied was Jodha might have been in tune with him that night because the fact is she is pregnant. I found that very interesting, even at a time like this he is not dishonoring Jodha to any one but is holding her honor high. If given an opportunity he would have sentenced Jodha to death by the most cruel means ever like he did with that woman imagining her to be Jodha but in reality he didn't. Why? We all know he is attracted to Jodha, he finds her appealing with all her talents, he is mesmerized by her but this is so intense and deep, it is much more than it is seen on the surface. He doesn't himself know that he respects her a lot no matter what, somewhere he knows deep down that Jodha can't do this, or may be he is unaware of his love for her. Whatever the reason he is upholding her honor instead of disgracing her in public.
For me this one instance left a deep impression in my mind. Jodha has always lacked the royal etiquette, manners, tactics, means and ways and today was again another instance of her impertinence. Ruqaiya has asked her to hold her tongue in front of maids or think and look before she talks, Jalal has stopped her many times before she starts her rants and only after he dispersed every one he let her talk. This quality is lacking majorly in Jodha and I was personally very irritated when she stopped Ruqaiya and started questioning Jalal. I would have taken it well looking at the situation if she questioned and blamed Jalal in privacy of their room. Anyway...somethings will and never can change! Sigh!
Maham is getting all puzzled about Jalal's attitude, why? Resham is her 'bafaadar', then how come she didn't tell Maham anything about the drink? Or did Sharif bribed her or threatened her not to open her mouth? Now that seeing Maham I feel, even if she comes to know about the truth she won't do anything because if the problem is solved Jalal and Jodha will be back together. This way with misunderstanding she can separate them.
Let the showdown happen tomorrow CV's and please do it in privacy of their room. The sooner its over the better for us viewers. I am scared, sincerely hope Jodha won't take any drastic step and pray Jalal won't do anything foolish in prime of his anger to Jodha. Again crossing my fingers and toes.
