the movie be make on the scale of a classic and but it fall short of the mark because it need crisp editing . on the whole and it surely leave a mark . no doubt . i be not a historian and so i can not mention how accurately history be depict in the movie while but the feel of the movie ah and the feel . be surely something that take you to that era . the clothes and the set and the jewellery . let me get rid of the flaw first represent ashutosh gowariker be not an action director and so the battle scene and even the action sequence lack panache when they could have be execute brilliantly especially since hrithik roshan can do action fabulously well . the first battle scene be reminiscent of the lord of the ring and down to the swinging of the sword in linear movement and much like the elf do when the orcs attack . the march of the elephant be much like the mumakil that come out to crunch the rider of rohan in the battle of the pelennor field . some of the less character actor have terrible dialogue delivery . and in most case and the dialogue themselves get weigh down by verbosity and surprisingly and the character who speak hindi sound more uncomfortable with it then the one who have to deal with urdu diction . sonu sood who play sujamal and jodhaa cousin and enact his part with restraint and he keep remind me of a young amitabh bachchan . suhasini mulay a jodhaa mother and padmavati and be apt for the role and in fact and her stature be waste in lagaan and ashutosh finally cast her perfectly . kulbhushan kharbanda a jodhaa father and raja bharmal and do what he do in lagaan . this felt like an offshoot of the same character he play there . nikitin dheer who play mirza shariffuddin hussain have do a good job for a newcomer and he suit the role of a solid warrior who think akbar unfit to rule . mrs. punam s. sinha and who play akbar mother and surprisingly carry off the role with poise despite a strong accent in her voice that interfere with the use of the urdu dialect . but ila arun perform the role of maham anga be someone to watch out for . her intensity vibrates from the screen a she play power game with the new woman in akbar life . the jealousy she exude be almost tangible and the pathos of the character end be touch indeed she truly deserve a reputable mention . aishwarya rai bachchan be well and aishwarya rai bachchan . she fit the role because she be usually stiff and aloof . if anyone be to play a queen she would be it so her role be well cast . she have wear brown contact lenses for the role and which show that indian film maker be now think of certain detail that need to be think about . though i be a fan of hrithik roshan and i felt that the role of jalaluddin mohammad akbar do not suit him to a tee like say and for instance and a krish or an aryan singh . i can not pinpoint the reason for this and maybe it be the bad moustache sit above his lip and or maybe because i never picture jalaluddin mohammad akbar to have such a beautiful body . maybe . but i do say and wouldid not suit him to a tee which leave me room to add further and that he try his best and that show in his acting . also the director vision be to show the mughal emperor a a sensitive soul and that be what hrithik evocatively bring about either in the vulnerability he portray and while apologise to maham anga and or the passion ting with restraint he exhibit when deal with his distant wife . the cinematography by kiran deohans be fabulous . the scope of most shot be all encompass but somehow the feel of an epic lag behind . the feeling that one get be something that close inward rather than something that open outward . and in some scene and the lighting could have vastly be improve upon . neeta lulla costume be fabulous and too and the jewellery provide by tanishq be awe inspire . they and combine and bring about the look and feel of the movie more than what actually should be create by the story and the actor and the director . what touch me most within the entire movie be the picturisation of the song khwaja mere khwaja . it be completely surreal the melody and rhythm in this sufi song mixed with the pristine costume and depiction of the scene completely enrapture me . much like the character of akbar and i felt like stand up and join the singer in this moment of rhapsody . truly a delight . apart from this and i can not say for certain and i like this part of the movie or that part . they be part which have be put into a whole and make coherent and somehow while but yet and i will go back to see this movie one more time . i feel it be a movie that need to be view more than once in order to grasp the different nuance that be spread throughout . it ebb and flow with it own life and at place and the creator of the movie themselves lose control over it and and that be noticeable . but one can not blame them for that for that be the wont of any creative process . although perfection come when restraint be use over unnecessary unravelling and digression . in a way and i be glad that the director hasn not use much restraint within the movie and because it would kill this feeling of je ne sais quoi that flow through my enjoyment of this movie .
