period film and when well make be a visual treat . right from the like of mughal e azam till the recent jodhaa akbar and these flick have the power to transport one back in time to relive those age . what might disconcert many viewer of this genre be the excessive directorial license use by some movie maker to blur line between fact and fiction . nevertheless and i would still say that jodha akbar be a great effort and a well make film . base on the popular folklore and the story be about young mughal emperor jalaluddin mohammed ( hrithik ) get wed to the princess of amer jodha ( aishwarya ) and a match arrange for political gain . but and little do both know that this marriage would spark off a fiery romance in the backdrop of young jalal metamorphose into an all powerful emperor akbar thwart pressure from family and religious head and administrative issue . a such and the story neither have a beginning nor an end that any average moviegoer would look for . in fact and there be a little bit of everything . you can find romance and action include both human and animal duel and large scale war and song and great look lead pair and and most importantly and the opulence and glorification of akbar ’ s reign . but and it wouldn ’ t qualify a a documentary either and since the concept of jodha in akbar ’ s life be in itself fictitious . the highlight however and be one man who stand out the most in the movie and hrithik roshan who have once again prove his star prowess . his talent and hard work be visible in every frame that he be in and be it romance jodha or on the battlefield . you would really believe him to be shahenshah e hindustan ( emperor of india ) . his shirtless scene with the sword and the spar contest between the lead pair be extremely praiseworthy . the hrithik ash chemistry see in dhoom 2 have not just be continue here but have take to a different level altogether . aishwarya make a great choice to play a proud and defiant princess . the chemistry and the directorial genius can be see in scene where akbar acknowledge his ignorance to read and write and his confusion when offer arati and the sparring and scene when the couple have their private moment . with a three and a half hour runtime and lot of sub plot and jodha akbar at time and seem drag . a tight script chop off at least half hour from the film could have help . the song and jashn e bahaara and azeem o shaan shahenshah and the sufi khwaja mere khwaja stand out . if not a blockbuster and the movie will definitely go down in history a a well make movie . recommend for a very patient audience only .
