Friends,


Today's was a nice episode, i must say quite improved one. Tell me what was not present in this today. Giving a detailed update.! Ignore the grammatical  errors, as i am writing this at a great speed, as i have to rush back to some work again.!

1. Our Bad man Sharif-ud-din came back in Jodha Akbar today.
2. Salim touched feet of his mother - MUZ and even hugged his father.! Some respect shown atleast.!
3. Man Singh and Sharif-ud-din's confrontation, though short was worth watching.!!!


At the end of this update, I have mentioned the history part related to the divine experience which Akbar had during that time.

Today's update

Scene-1
People are protesting against Akbar openly. Salima Begum, HB and Jodha present. Danial, Murad, Navratans and Mansoor present. Akbar tries to explain to people that those fields were burnt for their benefit only. People become calm and start listening to Akbar.Some one throws knife on him. But Akbar stops his soldiers from attacking the people. People say what good will happen by burning the fields.

Then people again stop, and say ->
"un sikkon par Khuda ka naam likhaya apne naam ke saath. Hum aapki baat nahi sunenge..."

People do not listen to AKbar and protest continues. Birbal and others take Akbar inside.


Scene-2
A Hakim(doctor) operates on Jalal. HB and Jodha present.

Jalal tries to leave as he has much work to do. Salim also present. But they all stop Akbar as he is not well. Akbar instructs Birbal to work for betterment of people.

Salima and Jodha tell Akbar to take care of his health.

Jalal is instructed to take rest. But Jalal insists on taking care of welfare works, but since he is stopped from working. So, Finally, he instructs Birbal to take care of welfare works.

Birbal tells -> Wheat and other ration are not in sufficient quantity, We need to import it.! Also, there are reports that the neighbors have stopped providing any ration to Sultanate. Birbal offers to go to import ration from overseas but Akbar says he needs Birbal, hence someone else will go. Salim agrees to go for this assignment.
Jalal asks Salim -> Do this work carefully, my son. Salim nods his head and leaves.

Next Scene
Salim decides to go to some place via ocean route to get necessary ration for the aawam. Salim instructs Qutub to remain at palace and take care of the aawam in his absence.


Scene between MUZ and Salim.
MUZ gives her wishes to Salim and bless' him.
Then, Ruqs kisses Salim on forehead. HB also gives her blessing to Salim.
Salim leaves. 

Man Singh and Mirza Hakim scene..

Man Singh tries to know how big is the force of Mirza Hakim. Hakim says its quite large and there is no need to worry about it. Hakim also tells that his people are creating situation of revolt in Agra.

OMG.!! What did i see?
Entry of Sharif-ud-din in Jodha Akbar.! This is a surprise package from the creatives.!
Much appreciated entry.!

Man Singh gets very angry seeing him but controls himself. Even Sharif gets angry seeing Man Singh. Sharif tries to kill Man Singh. Both were ready for a fight.!

He shouts to Hakim->"Man Singh can never betray Jalal no matter what happens."
Hakim cools down Sharif-ud-din but still Sharif says that he won't believe Man Singh can ever betray Akbar.!
Then, Hakim and Sharif tell Man Singh that Shah Mansoor is giving all the internal info from palace to them.
 
As i said in my earlier updates, Mansoor is hand in glove with the conspirators!
So today that thing became clear.!!

Scene of Anar and Salim

Salim comes to meet Anar. Anar refuses to see him. Anar's mom goes to meet Salim. She says Anar is not well and is sleeping. Salim leaves and asks her to take care of Anar, and incase of any need they can contact the royal palace. Then, Salim leaves.


Next scene

MUZ applies tilak on Salim forehead.
Salim EVEN touches feet of MUZ and then hugs Akbar.
What a poignant scene.!!

 
Scene of Akbar and MUZ
Jodha and Akbar sitting before Kanha. Akbar consoles Jodha who got emotional thinking about change in Salim. MUZ asks Akbar to sleep.
Akbar replies -> "He will sleep only when his aawaam sleeps well". He asks Jodha to sleep.


Dream of Jodha
"Akbar sees a Brahmin who gives him a shawl to cover himself . Dead people are lying every where." This was Jodha's dream. Jodha thinks of informing Akbar about his dream, but she stops as Akbar wont believe it.!

Note:
Today, I did not find this supernatural premonition of Jodha to be OTT. Akbar is also shown to be having a divine vision in 2 episodes now. Hence, this dream also looks fine to me in this serial!


Scene of DEK
Murad asks about health of Akbar.
Akbar replies first he has to think about the welfare of his people not about his own health.

Birbal informs there are lots of probelms in Sultanate:
1. The insects/worms are infecting people.
2. North West Provinces and Bengal area are in serious condition. Chances of revolt.
(I mentioned this in my history updates. Link : Click here to read about God Track..)

Pir Sahab asks Akbar to visit Ajmer. Akbar could not go as he has to take care of his aawaam who is like his children to him. Birbal also supports AKbar in this decision.

Mariam Makani says she will go to Ajmer Sharif instead of Akbar and ask for well being of the Sultanate.!


Vision:
The same kid who came earlier in dream, speaks to Akbar again, and warns him not to think of himself as God. The kid asks Akbar to mend his ways. ""Next 3 months can be bad for him. ""
Soldiers arrive and Akbar asks them to search his room for some intruder but no one is found. MUZ arrives and asks what happened. Akbar says that same kid who appeared earlier before him came today also. MUZ remembers the words of Pir Baba that this kid is some divine soul. Akbar faints.!

Precap:
Poison of the insect spreads in Akbar's body, hence he can not work now. To stay on Bed, perhaps he is brain-dead. This is "Natkiya Rupanter/Drama" Version of CV's. :-P. 

As i am more interested in REAL history, so I am updating the history related information related to Akbar's Vision. :)

Akbar had a major "issue" happened to him around 1578. 
Though, modern texts call it, "epilepsy attack" not a divine experience.

But, Abul Fazl, Badayuni, Kandhari, have recorded this was a DIVINE intervention and for some time it appeared that the Emperor "would leave this world". No one knew(could understand) what had happened to the emperor, and there were rumors that the Emperor was under a STRANGE-DISorder and the panic spread like wild fire. 

In Kandhari's words ->"A divine intervention had fallen on the emperor which hazed him."
Abul Fazl says --> "A sublime divinity took possession of his body."
Badayuni says --> "A strange state fell upon the Emperor and the precedence was unaccounted for."

I will post a separate history article on this.
Right now, i have this much information. :)
