above all comes the magic of AR Rahman.His music works very well to build and sustain the mood that Ashutosh Gowariker intended for the film.Rahman's music is spectacular, bracing, pleasant and different.He is the one who dominated every one and every thing else present on the screen..the stars,huge sets or the thousands of extras on the screen are second to his music.
Review:: Story: Set in the sixteenth century, this epic romance begins as a marriage of alliance between two cultures and religions, for political gain, with King Bharmal of Amer giving his daughter Jodha's(Aishwarya Rai) hand to Emperor jalaluddin muhammad Akbar(Hrithik Roshan).When Jalaluddin accepts the marriage proposal, little does he know that in his efforts to strengthen his relations with the Rajputs, he would in turn be embarking on a new journey- the journey of true love. >From the battlefield where the young Jalaluddin was crowned, through the conquests that won him the title of Akbar the Great, to winning the love of the beautiful Jodhaa. Jodhaa Akbar traces the impressive graph of the mighty emperor and his romance with defiant princess. Highlights: >From the director of Lagaan comes another 'classic' in the name of Jodha Akbar.The director succeeded in delivering a sensible romantic drama on an exuberant scale. Hrithik looks impressive as Young emperor Jalaluddin.Hrithik gives subtle performance. Jodhaa is the perfect role for the beautiful Aishwarya Rai.No one can think about some other name for this role.Ash is just like a Mughal painting. Costumes by Nita lulla are awesome. The sets by Nitin Desai were a treat to the eye so is the cinematography by Kiran deohans. and above all comes the magic of AR Rahman.His music works very well to build and sustain the mood that Ashutosh Gowariker intended for the film.Rahman's music is spectacular, bracing, pleasant and different.He is the one who dominated every one and every thing else present on the screen..the stars,huge sets or the thousands of extras on the screen are second to his music. Sidelights: The duration of this film is very lengthy (3 hours 30mins) Narration is slow.First half is a bit boring though the second half is good. Public Talk: Good but slow and lengthy.Worth a watch. Industry Talk:Decent hit but may not be as huge as expected. http://www.oniondosa.net/reviews/Jodha-Akbar.htm
