SRK's Review...

Jodha Akbar...An Untold,Unconditional & Epic Love Story...

There's something extra ordinary about the movie
concerning the story and the way it unfolds...
The epic venture has been etched to perfection
regarding the cinematography, the settings of 16th century,
and the acting of the main protagonists...

The movie begins with a BANG!!!
presenting the viewer with a jaw dropping
and thrilling war sequence...
but there after it fails to keep up
that action-packed editing...
it nearly fades away from the magnificence showered
in the beginning..which kept the viewer interested...

The movie virtually crawls in the first hour...
but picks up in its drama and screenplay,
leading to the intermission...
but little can the story be blamed for
its lack of pace in the first half...
as the plot itself needs some valuable time
to unfold to the core...

The 2nd half makes up for the losing fragrance...
presenting some of the best moments
and scintillating series of events
that leads to the evolution of
"AKBAR", The Emperor...
All the scenes depicting the drama
and romance between Jodha-Akbar
have been enacted to the utmost perfection...

Both Hrithik and Aishwarya have just lived
their characters, and make us feel their emotions...
While Ash blossoms in her beauty and acting...
Hrithik discovers newer talents and greater heights
at times leaving the viewer spell bound...
with his sheer performance and dialogue delivery...

The music and the picturization of two songs
needs to be mentioned greatly..
one is the rare breed of sufi song "Khwaja ji"...
it has been choreographed,photographed and enacted
perfectly to the core...the other one being
the celebration of the Emperor Akbar, by his people
"Azeem O Shaan Shehenshah"....
the song has been picturized so magnificently
and spectacularly...that one finds no words
to describe how great a treat it is...

The drama further twists up on the verge of the climax...
which really keeps us at the edge of our seats...
The climax action sequence, again hasn't been
anything short of pure excellence...
But its the love of Jodha-Akbar that's again been
rightly given the pivotal role in the final scene...
where one finds it unbelieveable to experience such
an unconditional love shown even the last moment
of the movie...and makes us wonder...why did this
Eternal love story never get its praise and
went unnoticed somewhere in the great history
of our country...

On the whole, Jodha Akbar...is a Cinematic Masterpiece
right from the settings,art work,acting,music,
action,romance and drama that never fails to shower
the Epic Love Story into our hearts,even long after
the ending credits...

SRK's Verdict-***1/2

Such kind of a movie has very little chance
to be made again...So, Come & experience
the Golden Era of the Great Indian History...
And an Era of truthful,eternal & Epic Love Story...

-Dilse...
