Direction was pretty good. Especially the screenplay and shot division were the best through out the movie. Ar Rahman Music was the great asset to the movie. He was just awesome with his tracks and the bgm was perfect and soothing to hear time and again. Hrithik was apt for the role and really felt good with the point where director didnt focus on his sixth finger throughout the movie. Few shots were perfect that when a thumb is used, it was of left hand instead of right one. For eg: when he keeps sindoor to aishwarya, hrithik keeps the sindhoor with his left hand by which viewers doesnt see the 6th finger. Not sure whether akbar was as gentleman as in the movie but as far as the story of the movie is concerned he was a torch bearer in many ways right from opting for peace before war to providing the privacy to jodha to built a small temple in her room and not touching her until jodha accepts him. All these were adding beauty to the character of protagonist. ARR deserves many awards for his work in the movie.
