Although I would have liked writing a detailed review, but there are already 79 reviews. Besides its a history subject and most of people like to sleep during there History classes during school days and so I wont want to put detail.


I wrote this poem an year ago, when I was reading History. I think its someway matching to the thoughts of Jodha in this movie, So I am pasting it here.


*The days ahead *


* One day came this conqueror;


he was also the emperor, *


*He had more to take than to give*


*And my father had to live.*


**


*He wasn’t young nor was he handsome, *


*My father could have given him some ransom.*


**


*But I was a good daughter of my father, *


*and the kingdom of my dad*


*Fulfill his wishes was a duty I had, *


*I took this decision good or otherwise*


*Although no one had asked me once, forget twice, *


*Kings and rulers as they were, *


*Was a girl’s opinion for them to care?*


**


*I had fears, for this had never happened in years*


*But the only option I could exercise was to shed tears*


**


*Is this my father’s justice? Leaving his lovely princess*


*To a person to whom I will be less a wife more a mistress*


*I thought this is very bad and felt very sad, *


*Is this the destiny I had?*


**


*Then I heard some people say*


*Their words made my day*


****


**“She has saved us from fierce battles, saved so many lives, **


** Sent the soldiers back to their families and  wives”**


**


*Although there was no option better than this , *


*I had to accompany to the harem of his.*


*I still feel proud of my act, *


*I have to suffer and that may be a fact. *


**


*I am happy I have saved so many heads go behead*


*I look forward hoping better days ahead


(I havent changed the poem, it stays the original as it was a year back when I wrote it)


The decisions taken by Akbar in the movie show the political mindset of Akbar,


The character of Akbar as portrayed in this movie is a little different from the known "Mughal-E-Azam" movie, where we know him more.


The actors are well suited for the characters, although I am not sure about the controversies, the problem with such a cinema becoming hit is that
