I saw Jodha Akbar(at Central Plaza) & it is amazingly HUGE movie, has to be seen on big screen. Lenght is quite big three & half hours, editing is slow sometimes, but catches pace once Jodha & Akabar gets together.
Hritik Roshan is perfect as Akbar(3 Khans could not have managed this role). Aishwarya is good as always(& my favourite). She has done one wonderful sequence of sword fight, (heard that both Ash & Duggu had days of practise before this). She looks mature in those Rajput outfits. Sets, ammunitions, storyline, jewellery, palaces, forts all take you to Mughal period. Its little difficult to understand Hi-Fi Urdu sometimes but can guess it. There is always a touch of fiction in such historic movies & Jodhaa Akbar is no different.
In other roles Sonu Sood is good, he has come a long way. The negative role done by the actor{dont know his name) is good. And as always AR Rehman has delivered, directors & producers can always depend on him, for he keeps on re-creating melodies.
Hats off to Ashu Gowariker again for his effort. We can surely make war historic war films - Hollywood ishtyle.
