this film be not for everyone . it have the typical bollywood treatment and complete with a multitude of bright colour and pretty dancing girl and long dance number and and catchy tune . the set and fight scene be poor . the direction be disjoint and the edit clumsy . nonetheless the film have great charm . the tragic tale of prince asoka and the great emperor and disperser of bhuddism and probably bear no great resemblance to history than do shakespeare macbeth or anthony and cleopatra . but it do have something profound to say and it format a a tragedy can be move . the lead actor be competent and the script be deserve of good treatment . don not expect too much and you may find yourself move by it colour and pageantry and charm and message of the value of peace and fullfillment over war and ambition .
