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
