Scene 3
jalal is sad and recalls how he said to jodha that i started loving you but you finished that by your characterless nature, he thinks that i dia a mistake, i misunderstood you i will rectify it, jodha on other side thinks that i love alot jalal but you have hurt me alot. (dil kashmakash main bara hai plays). ruks comes to jalal and says i know you are worried but a king cant be so emotional, jalal says i have never put this much serious allegation on anyone, i have doubted on her purity, i have doubted her relation with her brother, i have hurt her alot. salima comes there, jalal says i need your advise, i put allegation on jodha, i doubted her character, salima says i know you did a mistake and also asked jodha to go from here, she says i also know that you love jodha alot, jalal ask for suggestion, salima says i can give any because in husband wife relation they can solve matter themself, nobody can sort out your problem, you bot can do that, its the matter between hubby and wife, you have given her wound and you are in pain, only you can lessen your pain. mistakes happen in relations but you have to rectify it, you have to face jodha dn rectify it, jodha must be very hurt thats why she left from here, i know she will believe you, only you can bring her back, jalal says right i have hurt her i will put medicine on it. ruks says jodha herself went leaving palace so why should jalal go to bring her back, salima says its not the time to show attitude its time to show love, affection. jalal says you are right i will go and bring her back.. ruks is stunned and in tears.
Scene 4
jalal comes at gate of palace and says to salima to tell hamida that i am sorry for my mistake and i will bring her daughter back, he says to atgah says till i am not here you see matters along with maham, i will come with jodha, atgah says alright.
jodha is praying to lord. jalal greets hamida but she doesnt greet back, jalal sits on horse and leaves with his soldiers.
soul talk- jalal says that day i came to know what it feels like to loose someone, i brought you back from death bu lost you to my doubt, jodha says you only lost me but i lost everything because for a wife, her husband’s trust is everything, jalal soul says i was worried where i will find you , jodha soul says i was not worried for anything because i lost everything, you doubted me and i cut myself from you, you were seeing truth inmy eyes but you took my silence as lie, you took my love as fake, jalal says i was sorry for i doubted you. i was in so much pain because i started loving you, i cant think in my dream that anybody else see you other than me, now i just awnted to see you. we see jalal riding horse.
PRECAP- jalal is in amer, bharmal ask you here, jalal says i thought jodha must have tell you everything. maasa says yes i wanna how is jodha, why she didnt come with you, she is getting love in sasural that doesnt mean she will forget us, jalal is stunned that jodha is not in amer.

April 11, 06:43There are many posts on weather Jodha is correct or wrong. The issue here is that Jodha is correct under her circumstances considering that she still at that point when Jalal questioned her to tell truth didn’t have so much love for Jalal that she didn’t want to see him hurt.so she chose to keep her mouth shut.
Whatss bothering many is that ok you want to keep up your promise but she’s still not shown that she’s feeling any guilt. I can see only one reason for that, to act showing gulit is very tough which Rajat has been doing extremely well. May be directors realized that Paradhi can’t do this part well so they kept on all the time showing Jalal feeling guilty.
When I say guilty I mean, lets say you are driving and hit a deer to protect a kid who’s walking in the middle of the road. You did your best judgement , but as a human we will feel guilt that we killed a deer though we did correct by protecting a human kid. If that guilt is not there then thats admant and attitud and stubborness like Jodha
ruchi
April 11, 06:46Okay !! Ummm i partially agree wid u!!
But whatever ur example is. Very gud!!
ria
April 11, 06:50Want to add one more point, Jodha kept silent at tha point because she didn’t still realize how much she would be broken by loosing Jalals trust and love. When we love someone we dont want to loose their trust because we don’t want to loose them. Jodha apparently slowly started realizing just before leaving the palace or more on the way

April 11, 06:25We’ll he will be in a shock when he goes to Amer and finds that she is not there! She is being to stubborn though.. I mean she said that she will never come back! That is your husband and be made a mistake! But she was the one who didn’t open her big mouth and tell him anything! Every time they seem to come close something drifts them apart again. They need to open up to each other quickly or else things won’t go anywhere. Also, I do not think she is going to be kidnapped but I hope she does so Jalal can be her knight in shining armor!!!!!!!!!!

April 10, 18:11@ Kahna, so wonderful to read your analysis. I waited till late night to read it and it is great.
I totally agree with every point of you and coincidently am also enjoying this show due to the characters potrayed. Am not et all a TV or movies buff but somehow due to personal anxiety with history started watching Jodha Akbar and am hooked to the concept just like you.
The story is quite different and takes to a very important era of our history, maybe some of it is fictional but definitely not unreal. The colorful characters and their variant roles for me is somehow a subtle connection with human awareness and humanity at large.
When this serial was launched Ekta Kapoor clearly mentioned that she felt this show was more needed for our modern times and it is true.
Just as you mentioned the love between Jodha and Jalal is not an ordinary love story with romance. In fact this love story started with hatred and in due course of time tranformed into an epic love story. If you ask me what keeps me hooked with this show is this. Jodha and Akbar lived a journey where they both were raised in completely extreme environment and absolutely different religious background in 16th century, which is quite different than our modern times. And they both were from royal families and thus had their own strong personalities and self esteem and pride.
But then slowly and gradually how beautifully they one step at a time shed their gross and subtle differences and thus transform their soul and spirit: this for me is a beautiful message.
For me the ‘tranformation’ that a ruthless Moghal rule brings within himself when he finds his heart, falls in love, and thus creates history by changing his empire is applauding.
For me this is the actual and true power of love. Love that is supreme intelligence. Love which is a revolution within. Love that shapes us to become someone better. Love that heals and Love that conquers !!!
Their story is a vital example definitely needed in our times because although we might have advanced in our lifestyle and technology or globalized (whatever), in reality, we are somewhere replacing our core values, ethics and many a times are easily bent on even compromising with our character.
This is a message I hope the new generation takes too and abides by.

April 10, 16:12In today’s epi we have to say waah to Hamida Begum the Mariam makani. She scolded Ja left and right, in which if we think about with her own life, on how Ja insulted her in front of Maham too. As she said Ja gave respect to most of the relationship for name sake only.
But if we look at the history,really Akbar is the Great, because the transition in each stage of his life is tremendous. That shows that he was really a good human who was exploited by BK and MAHam. But if we think about his annexation in Hindustan, at that period it was important that he needed to be so aggressive to win the wars. One way or the other we should be thankful to JM Akbar and the Britisher’s that we also have to had other religions in the Great India. Before Babar’s reign the Mughal invaders looted Hindustan and they insulted our culture (ex: Rani Padmini). Because of Akbar’s effort Hindustan was united with Hindus and Muslims. After him jahangir also had done a great job, but since of his weakness of women, he lost his power to noorjahan who was very close to rukaiya. From there, the empire started to fallen. Shah jahan was brought up by rukaiya until he was 13 yrs old. He was born to Hindu begum (actually her name is jodhabai, still that confusion is going on). Enough with the history I think!

April 10, 17:39Thak you for this bit of history. I would have loved to read more if yu can spare the time to write. I love Indian history, hve been trying to get my hands on as much historical literature as I can.
But I get so angry on those Mugals and Britishers who did so much looting, killing and trample the Hindu people to no end. Ackbar changed after being surrounded by good people like Jodha and Birbal, his eyes were opened to all the unjust treatment of the Hindus etc. Otherwise he would have continued being influenced by those not good cruel people.

April 10, 13:11First I would like to thank Atiba for the prompt, consistent updates. It is very useful, thanks again. I must say that I am not a big time TV serials watcher, but definitely JA hooked me in.
Dear friends and fans of JA, thought would share some thoughts with you all. It is indeed a pleasure to share with such a fan club. I was trying to understand the characters of Jalal and Jodha and trying to put down what runs in my mind given context of the current track. Pl bear with its length. Note: I am not talking of Rajat or Paridhi here, but only the characters portrayed per say is being analysed here. I must admit that I am not a crazy big fan of either of these characters, but these characters have drawn my attention and triggered my thinking process. I am indeed thankful to the Producer, Director and the Story writer of this serial for the fantastic job done in impacting people – I am impacted by this serial, it has made me think and understand the true nature of love better, to be precise the undying love – what exactly does it mean and its subtleties.
So, here is my take – this is not based on emotions, but just impressions formed by putting things in perspective. I actually wanted to post this yday, but could not manage, so here it goes in today’s post.
JODHA: Let me take the character of Jodha first. In ydya’s post, I have seen comments on her demanding that she behave like a Mughal wife who takes the side of the husband, come what may. There was also a comment which said that Jodha is equally responsible for this saga and that any husband would be suspicious of a woman meeting a man at night.
Well, I would like to outright say that we are talking about characters who have got themselves a name in the history and remembered even today. Agreed there is a fiction part to it and for the time being, let us give the benefit of doubt and take the characters to be true to enjoy and understand the serial better. So, going back to my above statement, they are not ordinary normal day to day lovers that we see around. I am sure that there is something unique and looked up to, for it to be cherished even today. So, my thoughts and analysis are based on this fundamental point.
Let us now try to get into the shoes of Jodha and see why she behaved this way and if she was right in doing what she did given her character? I am sure that when look at things rationally, the persons innate nature and drivers need to be borne in mind. So, how can we define Jodha – an embodiment of spontaneous, unsullied love for anyone around, even animals and insects and what then to say for a blessed husband? And, one who boldly stands for a true cause and goes to any extent to eliminate injustice. Who has great values, honor, with truth and trust being her essence.
She loathed Jalal for all the injustice he had done, for his absolute lack of any humanity. But given her maturity she started changing her opinion when she got to know him better. When Jalal started supporting her, she developed friendship for him. The more he started trusting her, when she brought up the various cases and he addressed them, her regards for him increased, which later started blossoming as affection and now is at a point when she realizes that she is in love with him. I am glad that the CV took the time to show this transformation, instead of standard soaps where she just flipped for him or is transformed after a couple of interactions! So, it is all about winning her trust (and it does take time naturally) and Jalal has been quite successful in it. And once he had won her trust, he won her love. Kudos to his patience and perseverance driven by his love for her! He truly and completely wanted to win her and was willing to wait.
Given Jodha’s character do you think it will fall in place for her to hug Jalal and say there is nothing to be forgiven. You just mistrusted in the heat of the moment, or for that not even mistrusted me but just said something given your state of mind (and what caused the state of mind is a question I have though??!!). I must say that when I saw that dream sequence of Jalal, I was disgusted. I just did not expect this from Jodha, given her character. Thank God, the author has saved the merit of her character making it as a dream! Now, going back to the arguments posed by someone on Jodha’s behavior of moving away from the palace, here is my take on this:
Even before getting into Jodha’s behavior, let us understand what this true, undying love that anybody and everybody claim to their lovers or is expected to possess in any affair? Is true love the true feelings of love that ebbs in one’s heart for the person or is there anything more to it also? If it is the former, I suppose, many would have made their love story to history. We hear of so many cases of suicide unable to bear separation of the lover. We have Bakshi Banu, with her eternal mad love for Sheriffudin, that she is ready to kill herself or anyone for the sake of her love. For that matter, if we look at it this way, Bakshi Banu’s love for Sheriffudin is more glorious than Jodha’s, though she died for him drinking poison he was not that evil as Sheriffudin. Because, in the case of Bakshi, she loves her husband like crazy and is loyal to him, despite the fact that he is so sick. She is so blindly in love with him. Does not this character of her (or any similar in the world) deserve an award or a place in history? Also, she is a true Mughal wife who is with her husband, blindly, come what may. We also see Hamida, Salima and for that matter Ruks, who are also so loyal to their husbands. The way Salima considers herself as a spec in front of her husband and puts her husband’s dictate and pleasure before hers and is also a well-wisher definitely demands a big acclamation. But why do we not remember her today in history? Why is Bakshi Banu’s love despite Sherifuddin not talked off and Jodha’s love talked about even today, when she does not even allow her husband to touch her, failing the default minimum expectation from a wife?
Did I answer those who had arguments against Jodha yday? I repeat, I am not a crazy fan of Jodha and so blindly taking her side. I am not Bakshi’s follower (having blind crazy love for one where the rational faculty is completely at a loss). I am just putting things in perspective.
Let us take an example. Let us say one fan is crazy about about actor A that she is willing to die for that person. She just cannot stand a word or even a letter against him. She is so loyal to him, anything he does is heavenly and will tear away anyone even attempting to say a negative about him. She dotes on him, praises him always and by default always takes his side irrespective of what is said or done by him. There is another fan, who also loves the actor very much. She also will give her life for him. She also cannot bear any wrong to him. And importantly, she is also there as a true friend giving the right advice, pointing his mistakes and ensuring he is on the right track. She wants him to succeed and does her bit for that. She is not hesitant to do what it takes if it is good for him, even if it means harm for her. His true welfare is her only wish and want. Between the two fans, whom would you call as more loyal?
A true wife is one who is a good friend first and is with the husband in his ups and down and always cares for his welfare, by enabling and ensuring that he is on the right track for his welfare. She gives her best for his best. If however, he fails to see merit in her advice and gets himself into mess, the true wife stands by him still in the need of the hour, though it could be a fact that she was not in agreement to do what he did and did try her best to dissuade him. This is loyalty, this is true love.
This exactly what Jodha did, she pointed to her husband his mistakes, she made him see light and also when he did not listen to her and decided to marry Benazir, she decided to take the brunt of that huge mistake on herself. She never let him down or left him. But she did not blindly support him, she did her true bit as a loyal wife and put her best foot to ensure that he takes the right path.
Even during Sukanya’s wedding, she took Jalal’s side with her parents arguing why he should give away the fort. Even when Jalal said that she is not siding him, she said that she is siding the truth and wanted him to see the truth. Instead of blindly nodding her head away to anything he does, she tried to bring him on the path of the truth. She first found out the truth and once she knew what happened she put her bit to resolve it maintain the honour of her husband as well as her family. Even assuming that Jodha was madly in love with Jalal then, even then, she would have done exactly the same and tried to make him see the truth and do that which is just, instead of nodding her head away and bringing taint on him. So, when she realized the cheap game of Sherifuddin and that the promise has anyway been done, she tried to honour it and save her husband’s honour for that matter and also the marriage which should not be stopped due to unfairness, though she had to play a game for that.
When Jalal rejected Bakshi and when all ladies, including the loyal Salima (very warm and nice character) and Ruks failed to convince Jalal or for that matter were not ready to oppose Jalal, it was only Jodha who fought for it. Now, are complaining that she went against her husband’s wishes and she was not loyal to him? Or are we happy that she took the right step to unite her back with the family? Was she wrong in feeling the pain of Jalal and trying to remove it, instead of not do anything about it and allow him to sulk? She could relate to the pain of each one of them and took it upon herself to redress through right action, even if it means arguing with Jalal? Now, is this not ingenuine love, care, concern and so core loyalty to one’s husband?
If Jodha had been loyal in the expected way by some of you as expressed by you in yday’s post, we would not be talking of Akbar the great today. She brought him fame, she made him do what needs to be done. She was with him in and through and helped him discharge his duties well. She earned him his subject’s love and prayers (when other loyal begums were gifting him way jewels and dresses, she gave him what he lacks. She opened his eyes to the truth, brightened his dark life. The true wife plays a key role in the success or failure of her husband, in his good or bad. She is equally responsible, it is her responsibility. While on the other side, the loyal Bakshi was only aiding her husband’s fall.
Honestly, Bakshi’s love is disgusting to me. She is spoiling her husband. And to win his love, she is killing him (encouraging all his negatives) and was even ready to go against her dear brother. If she could not handle, she could have rather died I suppose and be a martyr of her love for her husband. I could not stand the glorification of her love. But love is indeed blind mostly and such a love is dangerous and importantly, it is not true love in my humble view. It is just desire in high level and where selfishness directly or indirectly rules (I love him so much, I want him so much that I will do anything for that – ain’t it selfishness? Instead of, I love him so much that I care only for his welfare even if it amounts to losing him or his love (attitude being more than me having him, his welfare is important)).
Remember Mirza’s words that he wants Shivani to be happy with the person she loves. It is not his want but her want that takes the precedence. This is true love. When Jalal did not believe Jodha regarding threats to his life, and she sees that he is increasingly hating her, she did not soften to win his affection back, but kept going as her focus was to save his life even if it amounts to losing his affection for her or for that matter her life itself.
Coming back to the question, what then is undying love? The love that is eternal, lasts long despite all odds? And not just restricted to feelings / emotions of love? For undying love to be there, it has to be primarily unsullied. Emotions alone will not hold fort here. What is unsullied love then? What taint can make it be called as sullied and hence not undying love? Or what is it that make it qualify to be called as unsullied love? The answer as we all know is, TRUST. TRUST is the core of it. It is the very roots on which the love grows and blossoms. How much ever the plant and later as a tree it grows giving beautiful flowers and tasty fruits, if the roots are weak, the tree can crumble anytime. So, however, beautiful, pleasant, loving and intense a relationship it can, if TRUST is not there or if it is not firmly rooted, then that relationship has the risk of crumbling anytime though it may seem in all beauty for the time being. Whereas even if no feelings are there, if TRUST is there, with this healthy roots, it soon grows into a beautiful, healthy tree.
And, this is exactly what has happened now in JA. Jalal’s expression of trust won her love but his expression of mistrust now made him loose her. If it is only feelings, emotions or physical expression, then this situation would not have happened. Jodha would have accepted him and the more powerful feeling of love expressed by Jalal now could have swept her off. But it is about the very root, which is shaken now.
So, coming back to Jodha’s current state, if she loved and cared so much for her husband, why did she not forgive him when he realized his goof regarding Sujamal and apologized to her? Is she putting her ego in front? These questions are answered I suppose.
For that matter, the answer lies in Jodha’s letter itself. In the first place, she is not angry with Jalal and therefore she is not rejecting him and going away. Instead she is deeply hurt in that she has failed to win his trust. And where there is no trust, there is no meaning in that relationship. It will only be a farce to be continuing in that relationship, with scope for exhibition of some emotions now and then but without any core. This shows her maturity and value she gives for trust and thereby true love.
It was a good bit that Jodha said that she was too shocked to hear that he did not trust her and that she tied her tongue. This clearly implies the extent of implicit trust she had in him which has now got shaken up completely. The very root is shaken up. And such a tree can only be vulnerable in future also and also how can it flourish anymore. And, whether future or not, in the case of Jodha it is uprooted. And that is why, I suppose, she has said that, even if he gets her back to Agra, he will not get his Jodha back really.
Jalal analysis to follow…

April 10, 13:21Continuing…
JALAL:
An interesting character indeed. And while I pen down my thoughts here I would like to have in mind his upbringing and environment to put things in perspective. CV has portrayed both the characters well setting the context clearly. Jodha as an individual has great integrity, is full of righteousness and has many other values and is filled to the brim with spontaneous love. She is fiercely independent and is very rational. She does not get influenced by others, as she always puts things in perspective and looks at things rationally. She grew up in a very warm, trustworthy environment though they are also a royal family. None conspired behind the back. As the voice over said on entry into Amer, the world that Jalal lives is very different from the world that Jodha lives in.
While Jalal on the other hand, is valorous king, an embodiment of power and the resultant arrogance. He believes that his sword rules, unlike Jodha who believes that it is heart that rules. He takes pride in his kingship and believes that anything could be got and done as he wished. And, he always seem to be under the influence of others, be it Khan Baba, MA, Ruks or later Jodha. He is more emotional (though he claims not to have a heart) than rational and gives this advantage to others. We have seen his verdicts given based on emotions (ofcourse, when not emotional he can be rational). Women, in general, are not seen as someone to be respected (but he does treat them with some dignity lest Mughal Saltanat respect at stake) while Jodha is from a traditional Indian environment where women are revered and wife is a pride of the husband. Many values seem to be lost on him, though his devotion to God is admirable and I suppose his saving grace. But I would not say that he is inherently evil. Imagine Jodha giving such gyan to Aurangazeb! Or is it a tragedy that he did not have a Jodha?!
And, this is why Jalal was losing to her all through. While he was trying to control her and pin her at his feet, he was being controlled by her in a way. The great values of Jodha overpowered his sword and power. She won him completely just by her character. He was impressed by her talent, righteousness and was getting attracted to her by the day. He was convinced by her arguments and trusted her decisions for the welfare of the people.
But in my humble view, though he saw purity in her eyes, he trusted her intent and merit of her acts and words etc., mighty impressed with her talent, he still lacked that one key thing for a successful relationship or to call it a true love and the reason why he faced so many fall. Also, I suppose he was not matured enough. Firstly, he should have understood that it will take sometime to win Jodha’s heart, given the background and her strong character and values. So, I was not happy with him, losing a chance to figure out if she loves him. Like some of the fans of this forum, he is also in a hurry to kiss her, have her while patience pays . And, had he been sensible he should have got a doubt about Jodha inviting him for a night in return for the ban of child marriage in is kingdom. He should have gone only with a benefit of doubt to her. The whole thing sounded weird to me, given Jodha’s character, she is not going to convert her relationship with him (which she valued and respected and hence all the restrictions) as a deal or a reward.
For this, I suppose, we need to understand how Jodha looks at it. In her mind the physical relationship is only an outcome or a resultant of true love. It is an only an expression of one’s love. So union of heart is more important and the first thing to happen. So, when Jodha has not even confessed or realized any such feelings for him, such an invitation is weird. Bit of thinking by Jalal could have saved him some disgrace. Agreed, Jodha could have handled this better – she fell down in my eyes here.
Secondly, when Jodha said she did not write any such in the letter while dear Badi ammi confirmed the other way, Jalal believed Badi ammi. He did not even pause to think if Jodha was capable of doing any such. This clearly points out his trust level. He trusts her for her intelligence and righteousness w.r.t. welfare of the people. But when it comes to his personal relationship, there is no implicit faith.
And after this, again chose to go back to her after she saved his life, he did not seem to resolve the matter. He continues to assume that she called him and then rejected him. I can’t imagine someone continuing in the relationship, when trust is at stake. He should have taken the effort to figure it out, sort it out. But his blind implicit faith in badi ammi takes precedence over his trust on Jodha. Dare badi ammi to play so with Salima. She just can’t as she is rooted in her trust for Jodha. Only Jalal is vulnerable. Even during Ruks miscarriage though badi amma was being cornered and later escaped with a dupe, he did not bother to investigate the matter any further as to how could such a dupe have got into the palace in the first place and managed to do all this.
That is why he is vulnerable (as it is not yet complete true love for her) and so when badi ammi told about Sujamal affair, he believed it though he claimed not to or did not want to (though he didn’t believe initially it did not sustain). He was only trying to convince himself that she is not at fault, though there an element of doubt was brewing in him. And that is why even when he went to Jodha’s room to get the truth out of her, he was prejudiced, he went with an assumption, but was only cherishing a desire to hear the other way. This assumption cost him dear. The way he handled the matter was pathetic. He was emotional and not rational. This is not becoming of a great king especially. And if he had complete trust on her character, he would have handled it completely differently. He could not sense that she was constrained, though she said that she is constrained. That is a crucial point and he missed it. Also, if he had applied his mind, he would have figured out that it is not falling in place – as Jodha was willingly engaged to Suryabhan who is now dead, he has even eavesdropped on their conversation. So, where is the question of her having an affair from childhood? It is very funny to hear that she drank the poison to win his trust and later take revenge, when she said clearly that she may not open her eyes again. And she would want to live in the first place to take revenge on him. He did the same mistake earlier and accused her of bearing someone’s child. And she established her purity, which Salimar swore during her discussion with him. Khair! When Hamida and Salima trust Jodha totally why can’t he? Every time, his badi ammi says something he deems it as a fact. Why can’t he logicise it? But if one were to raise a finger against his dear badi ammi they would be dead, here again, he is emotional and not rational. Remember Jodha tells him to look at truth and not carried away by relation?
Even now, when he runs to Amer to bring Jodha back, he has failed miserably – he did not pause to think as to what Jodha would have done. He knows that Jodha has pledged not to go to Amer in parithyag state. I am not sure if he even checked with his security folks on which direction Jodha went. He seems to be operating on impulse. Not sure how he could run a kingdom!
I feel his dream scene of being accepted so easily also depicts immaturity and misplaced view of Jodha. He seems to lack to understand her. But maybe, you cannot blame him in a way, given the environment in which he has been living. He definitely is not used to these and is unable to fathom I suppose. He is in the learning process.
I somehow feel there is some character assassination of Jalal or was it meant to be projected so?
And after he understood that Jodha has an affair, due to his love for her he could not hurt her directly, but he still wanted to take his revenge and wanted to hurt her by killing her lover. Pl recollect Mirza’s words here again – he is happy if Shivani is happy – true love is selfless and genuinely wanting the happiness of the loved one. So, here, it was not Jodha before him. Had he told her that he will unite her with her lover and gives her azaadi from his rishta, as her happiness is more important to him, I think Jodha would have been floored for a change. But his emotions and desire takes precedence.
Also, he has been wanting to have her so much, but is constrained by his promise and also does not to upset Jodha (fear of loosing her). It was not that I will wait for her to want it. I want her to be comfortable first. Even in Sujamal case, he says MA that I do not want her to think that I am doubting her. Instead if he had had an open conversation with her saying he trusts her but he heard something about her and would like to know about it, things would have been different. This is how true friends behave.
It is not that his love is not true. He loves her very much that he cannot live without her – he is so emotionally bound with her. But as we discussed before, only emotions are not enough for true love. It is just one part, but a bigger part is TRUST. That is why, we see Jodha not making such advances as him or being so emotional or irrational, as trust is the basis of her love. She even told him that she no more hates him as he trusts her. So, this is the biggest lesson for him, that trust is the core of true love. And once he has this unsullied trust in her, their relationship can never be at risk. Even badi ammi cannot do a thing!
Ekta and team has done a brilliant job in bringing out these aspects and in building such a deep relationship so well. They are taking us slowly to the scenario where Jalal and Jodha develop this implicit unsullied trust in each other, laying the strong foundation from where they kick start the journey of eternal love, which made history.
Till then, Jalal deserves only MA where his unsullied trust lies at the moment. Isn’t it said that you get what you believe in?!
I also want to take this opportunity to congratulate Rajat on his phenomenal acting talent. His breakdown when Jodha was poisoned is mind blowing. His reaction when jodha went cold on that night, to when she was poisoned, to today when she has left him, are all unique. It is not standard expression. The depth of the relationship at the moment is brought out well by these varied reactions. And, he is one who could convey a lot with just his eyes. Amazing talent indeed! I am glued to this show because of him.
Khuda Aafiz!

April 10, 15:37Is really ur name kahna? Well it suits to this conversation as u have given the opinion like bhagavad geeta. Yes, I agree that absolutely marriage or a true love is not like instant relationship of anything. It is the trust always bounded forever. U r such a passionated and the blog readers really should appreciate the patience in ur writing. Whatever I was thinking all these days, u wrote it hats of to u. I really encourage ur effort, it was like a good counseling for me, as sometimes I use to think whatever I am thinking, others also think the same or not. Thanks for ur (our) thoughts.
