Known for its lavish sets and extravagant costumes, Zee TV's
top-rated historical drama 'Jodha Akbar' always sees its lead pair - Jodha
(played by Paridhi Sharma) and Akbar (played by Rajat Tokas) in royal finery.
Investing time and effort in ensuring that their look is authentic, the costume
designers have always worked on designs that are both well-researched and bear
that unmistakable Mughal imperial stamp. Going the de-glam route this time for
an upcoming sequence, Jodha and Akbar will be seen disguising themselves as
commoners.
Following the track of the show, post her survival after the
poisonous encounter with Benazir, Akbar would want to take Jodha to a dargah to
pray for her well-being. While Jodha fought the battle for life bravely, it was
also due to Akbar's prayers that she survived. As a gesture of gratitude to the
Almighty for the well-being of Jodha, Akbar also wishes to build a palace for
her in a town called'Fatehpur Sikhri'. In order to reach the place, the two
decide to dress as commoners and pass the town not as the rulers of the state,
but as commoners.
Speaking of the special sequence, Paridhi said, "It was
a welcome break for us to not wear our usual princely attire but to experiment
with the look of a commoner. It's not half as heavy as the rich, ornate sarees
and jewellery that I generally wear as the Queen. In fact, it was a look I
quite enjoyed getting into. Let's hope the audience enjoy and appreciate the
simplicity of this avatar."
While the two embark on a journey, Jodha and Akbar start
developing a soft corner for each other. Only time will tell if the two will
give in and admit to each other about their feelings!
