first of let me confess that i hardly watch a bollywood movie in theatre more than once. 
jodha akbar is an exception.  i was not sure when i read mixed responses..but better be the judge yourself than falling for other people’s opinions....so i went to watch the movie and i am glad that i decided to watch......it was something which we don’t get to see and admire often.

i saw it three times in a week....
reason...its one of those movies that make you want to stay with the mood of the movie even after you come out of the theatre....you will still be with akbar and jodha ...and admire their lives ...want to be part of it if you can help it.  the direction is just brilliant ...ashtosh creatively weaved his imagination about  what would have been the  emotional side of moghal king emperor akbar ......
 in those rigid times  being princess was grand but one hardly had a personal choice  ......what it is be like married to someone whom you don’t know at all...for some political reasons...  walking into a place of totally different religion and culture... ..and are unsure what awaits you next ..but slowly discover certain ceautiful amazing passionate moments ..that you will cherish for ever....

we all only know that akbar was a great emperor and wanted to expand his kingdom...was a great ruler and warrior...but here akbar is portrayed not only as a political power icon but also as a young handsome royal moghal who is coming to the power and discovering india in his own terms.....he is all for any ideas that helps him expand the kingdom..be it marrying a hindu rajput princess or be it any other way.. and then quite amazingly we get to see his emotional side ..which is again beautiful......

for those who  want to see detailed history .....  they can even read that in the books.  this is a movie if you are curious about how akbar was as a person.   all in all an amazing movie.

those who love masala stuff will not be impressed something as sensitive and subtle as this. most of the people who are restless and come to the theatre to just watch some bollywood dance numbers or obvious comedies or hardcore hollywood actions   will not have the patience to enjoy grandeur and period romance...certain beautiful moments shown in jodha akbar...they can’t because most of the time they are busy checking there mobile phones ..or yawning...thats unfortunate for such people ..they miss the moments of splendour shown in the movie.....and the rest love it.
