Saw Jodha Akbar yesterday...hmm...well what can i say...one thing is for sure its no Lagan or for that matter even Swades...its like the movie lacks a soul...the director has dealt with not just one matter/topic/issue...its neither just a story of their love nor just a story of Akbar...ashutosh has not been able to do justice to any one particular topic...this plus its 200 mins viewing time doesn't make u feel satisfied at the end of the show...nevertheless its a magnum opus in terms of the detailed sets, costumes, jewellery, etc. which add to its larger than life image/feel...the effort gone into making the movie is really commendable but then again the war scenes are very average...nothing much to write about on this front and the plot is also not very exciting...while watching the movie u will not feel bored but at the same time the proceedings are not exciting enough to keep u engrossed.

On the acting front full marks to Hrithik...splendid stuff from him...speaking abt aishwarya...hmm...did her part decently well but has much less screen time as compared to Hrithik...rest everyone is average to good.

Final Suggestion: if u have 3.5 hours(and more if u consider the entire act of movie watching) to spare its worth a watch or u can just re watch Troy/Kingdom of Heaven/Braveheart or any other war movie on a DVD at ur home...u will not be missing much. But a must for die hard Hrithik fans.
