* When you watch historicals like MUGHAL-E-AZAM and RAZIA SULTAN, the usage of chaste Urdu is difficult to comprehend at times. Otherwise, the 3 + hours are very well spent. Oh yes, the length does pinch you at one crucial point, when a song breaks out. Does the viewer of today have the patience to watch a really lengthy film in today’s times? But once into JODHAA AKBAR, the sequence of events, the drama, the romance, the war… every aspect keeps you mesmerized. * A lot has been said and written about its length. While MUGHAL-E-AZAM was primarily about the legendary romance between Salim and Anarkali, a subject that has been attempted quite a few times on the Hindi screen before, JODHAA AKBAR is about the relationship that the young Akbar shared with Jodhaa. * It’s blasphemous to compare MUGHAL-E-AZAM and JODHAA AKBAR. Now let’s clear a few misconceptions pertaining to the film… And convinced you are after watching JODHAA AKBAR, a film of epic proportions. Only when you’re convinced yourself can you convince millions of moviegoers.
40 crores in a film that could go either ways. But more than anything else, it requires your firm belief in the subject, the belief to attempt a historical when historicals are considered an absolute no-no in the industry, the belief to spend almost Rs. It requires courage, prowess, patience, aptitude, knowledge, passion and of course, loads of currency to attempt a movie like JODHAA AKBAR. It’s not just body beautiful, but there’s soul as well.
Let’s get one thing straight: You haven’t watched anything so opulent, so magnificent like this in a long, long time on the Hindi screen. Cast: Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai, Sonu Sood, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Suhasini Mulay
