Salim stalking behaviour exceeding limits - Page 3

I do agree with most of the points you have stated.Salim's behaviour doesn't resemble that of a 15th century prince in any manner.Actually I am rather confused with his character.What does he want?What are his motivations? All I have seen of him is when he is either being rude or aloof towards his family or when he is obsessing over Anarkali 24/7.What does he plan to do in future,his political acumen,etc is all zero for now.The writers are trying to portray him as some angry young man with Daddy issues but sorry to say it doesn't fit with the characterization of a crown prince of a ruling dynasty.And most importantly when it's such a prominent historical character.All Salim has done till now is get angry without any reason or ramble about Anar,Anar,Anar 24/7. 😕

@Lawlesslawyer, when the makers said that this is a "historical fiction", they meant it as a "fiction" in every way. The names of the characters are the only thing that matches with history and nothing else.This is a fictional story of a fictional prince, king and kingdom. It is just a glorification of a cheesy, imaginary love story. Looking for resemblance to "real" people from history is not something that the makers are want the viewers to do, unfortunately. 😆 😆

Lolz 😆😆Then they should have made a contemporary show with this very story.Salim could have been some business tycoon's bigdail aulaad and Anarkali could have been the secretary cum childhood buddy cum obsession😆

Evil stepmom wants Salim outta the way so that she can hadap the jaydaat😆

The CVs could have saved the money which was spent on the sets,VFX and costumes.😆

Even it was a complete fictional show minus the costume drama, it would still suck. They lack a script, its like coming on sets do something and leave

Lemme come to Anarkali.She is no different from the typical mahaan FLs of every other daily.Bholi bhaali,abla naari who wants to see everyone happy and who pokes her nose everywhere unnecessarily till a point where it becomes annoying.It's bearable even in a contemporary drama but here they need to understand that she is a kaneez and the palace has a particular protocol to follow.The amount of liberties which Anarkali takes is enough to land her up in prison or worse get killed.

Then comes Ruqaiyya Begum.Okay for once can she just stop her with Mallika E Hind rant?! Even if Daniyal becomes the emperor she can't be Mallika e Hind.Daniyal's wife will be.If this Ruqaiiya had a miniscule of brains then she would have kept Salim at her side instead of plotting to get rid of him.It's highly unnecessary to make her the villain of Salim and Anarkali's story.

Her being the antagonist in Jodha Akbar's story is understood.But this one makes no sense whatsoever.I mean a reigning queen plotting against a kaneez for reason at all? Is it some saas bahu drama going on here? 

Now my frustration with Jodha Begum.I get it.She is the hero's mom so she will be all great and good.But she also needs to behave like Akbar's wife and an Empress first.She is not Rakhee Gulzar who will chant Mera Beta,Mera Beta all the time.Akbar means nothing to her??!Salim's rude behaviour towards her own husband is so easily excusable?

And sorry to say but I am unable to connect with this Jodha-Anarkali bond.Is Anarkali the only kaneez in the goddamn palace? So why is everyone after Anarkali at the moment?

Then comes Anarkali's friend.Today when she was pushing Anarkali towards Salim I was like,'Madam do you want your friend to get killed?!' 😡

At the moment,Akbar,Abul Fazl and Maryam Makkani are the only two characters who make sense in this show.

The biggest turn off for me is historical vibes r missing from this show. When I watched it I feel watching some Bollywood scene without proper script.

I agree completely about the extreme behavior of Salim. Aside from war tactics, princes were taught royal etiquette too, whether or not they were the heirs to the throne. He seems to display none of that! Instead of Salim's Baghaawat ki daastaan it looks like his Badtameezi ki daastaan. 😕

I also feel as if they are using the name Anarkali but actually showing the story of Noor Jahan and Salim. She hasn't gotten involved in politics yet but the way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if she does at some point. Nur Jahan was also a lady-in-waiting before she married Salim. I'm sure they won't show Salim with many wives, even though he had 20+.

As for the extreme negativity and weird character arcs, I would say this show currently looks like a beauty without brains. Put aside history, this show doesn't even seem to be doing well on the romance front, considering it has been promoted as this mega love story. 

Akbars favourite daughter in laws were Man Bai and Jagat Gosain, one his neice(his wife Jodha Bais brothers daughter) and another his childhood friends daughter (and his wife Rukmavathi's brothers daughter) 

Salim was really very close to Jodhpur royalty be it his step mom Rukmavathi or even Jagat Gosain his wife. He even arranged Shah Jahan aka Khurram to marry Jodhpur princess in future(his first wife Manbhavati with whom he had a daughter, his eldest daughter) and later Shah jahan married Dara Sikoh to another Jodhpur Princess (his second wife). Thats how close Akbar, Salim and Shah Jahan were to Jagat Gosains family. And the marriages continued even in later generations too. Its like eldest sons of emperor(next heir) usually married into Jodhpur royalty for many generations.
