Why so much antipathy towards Jodha?-DT NT Pg8 - Page 3

Very nice post. You beautifully expressed your views. I agree with it.

As for the antipathy, two reasons I can see-

1 The portrayal of Jalal has been somewhat inconsistent of late and some people want to put blame of this on Jodha since they see it as an attempt by Ekta to promote her female lead at the expense of the male

2 There has been antipathy against Jodha by some for quite some time now, it boiled over in the misunderstanding track. It is very difficult for those same viewers to forgive Jodha for it. It will take time.

But we are needlessly worrying, the overwhelming majority of viewers still love the portrayal of Jodha and the track.

The antipathy directed towards Jodha is not new and it's from certain few members of only. The truth is majority here and everywhere around the world love jodha. Thus she is so popular character of the TV currently and won so many awards. If you kindly check the forum posts then you will see only few certain members are bashing jo whereas there are many posts made praising her.

I guess if she would not fight or drank poison or let Mali raped her then also those people would bashed her saying she murdered akbar's pride. Lol

Such negative posts are getting encouragement as none were got warnings or taken strict actions. Our forum however isn't the reflection of what majority feels about Jodha or jalaal. As the next trp and awards will speak the volume.

Oh dear, I unfortunately saw that and felt ashamed that such filthy languages were used to attack a member still no action taken against it. It's really shameful. I wonder do we have fair rules for all. Where are the rules?

Don't feel disheartened coz you are one of the member whose comments I truly love reading along with donjas. ⭐️ You are one of the best Akdha fan too. 👏

Every once in a while I reply to some posts that capture my interest and this is one of them.

Radhika, nice post. I don't know abt others but even I m not very happy with the present track & I've been criticizing it. But I have No antipathy towards Jodha. I m angry with Jalal's characterization in this track. The main leads of any show should be treated equally its my point of view. Why to show one weak to make the other look strong? I m an AkDha fan first & then Jodha or Jalal fan. I vent out my frustration but I don't take it too seriously. After all its a fictional show so why to bother so much abt it. I've accepted the things the way they are and now I m enjoying it. AkDha/PariJat are enough reason for me to enjoy this show.

Radhika,

Awesome post.I read many comments that Jalal is very strong and he doesn't need anybody's help.

Also feminism can be shown without standing on anybody's shoulder.But I feel why so much discussion on Female power and for that matter male power also.

If we talk about today, it was as simple as this that girls defended themselves.Akbar would be proud of his wives.And please look males and females belonging to each other rather than opposite of each other.

This whole serial is about Jodha and Akbar's relationship.Thats what the makers and in one initial interview Rajat also said that.How they faced problems and fought them together.How their relationship developed is what it will be shown.

Those who have objections then I would ask them , why didn't you take objection on the tagline itself of "jalal ko jodha ne insaan banaya.' These words were harming his image.After this promo,there would have been lot of protests on this idea itself by many people before the serial's telecast started.Why nothing was said at that time ?

Because people know that this was historical show with fictional elements in it.There are always many versions of history not only of Akbar but of great people like Nehru,Gandhi,Subhash Chandra Bose.And this foreign writers are the biggest mischief makers.

They love to tarnish our image ,some of us must have read about things written by them about Nehru and Lord Mountbatten's wife.Similar nasty comments are made on Gandhi too.We ignore them thinking that they are sadistic psychos.

Well some international writers have written derogatory things about Akbar too and then when we can ignore them,why such hooplah here.Atleast they didn't show somethings like he sleeping with many women ,killing innocent people.They never insulted him.

Cvs made a mistake of showing Jalal making a big foolish mistake which even I didn't like.But then he is no god. Ramayan and Mahabharat shows even the gods also made mistake.

Jodha giving suggestions to Akbar is bad then what we do everyday.As a married woman I give so many suggestions to my husband and he never objects it.It is same with many married couples.I always think that in married life ,who did what is not important rather the thing done is important.

Please look at them as a married couple.Accept them as one and as 'Akdha.'

Radhika, a nice take but surely I can't see Jalal was degraded in this track. neither they are showcasing Jodha as great. The fact they are trying to show is that Even a great king who think and write history with his sword can also go weak when it comes to his family. Here they are showing how eager Jalal was to share his love & affection with his just acquired sister for whose love & affection, he had been looking for ever since he has been a child. Just because my brother or sister thought bad of me will keep me at bay if I notice them being in problem. Even before realizing what I am doing, I will be at their service and would try to help them out of the crisis and later I might go back to the same mode or they may not even acknowledge my support but that doesn't dampen my spirit and I will be hell bent to help them. And it is the same case with my husband and he will rush to his people at moment of need and at that moment, if I need some support while he is away, I will have to take care of me and that doesn't diminish his virtue and he will not feel bad that I helped myself in times of need.

Another awesome post !
Instead of celebrating courage and bravery of a Queen, this place has always insulted Jodha.

Radhika i don't think there is antipathy towards Jodha. The problem is only with the portrayal of Jalal. The venting and frustration is only directed towards how he has been shown too weak tin order to

potray women empowerment. Nobody is against Jodha.

For many people Jalal's character portrayal is equal importance as of Jodha's so it is difficult for few viewers to accept that undefeated king like Akbar is showed as captive and being tortured.

For me, i loved all the episodes since last week so far. I loved yesterday's episode more than today's episode. Today it was not just Jodha's bravery but the entire harem was awesome. Each and every character were outstanding and that made my day.
