Jodha Akbar

This is the first time, I am writing something about a movie.
Please do not consider this as a review of this movie.

Well the movie has many solid aspects which show that the director/crew have put a lot of effort in making a period movie.
Noticebly the grand sets...wow they are too good. They are so realistic to the extent that they look like Mughal Architecture being revived by some Scholars...!

Dress and ornaments, really catchy...both Akbar's as well as Jodha's...The armour worn by Akbar has been made with good care that it suits Hrithik very much...

The first war scene - The long shot was awesome.

Apart from the art section the movie had a good flow. It was not dragging.

Now coming to the part which I felt were the drawbacks. Honestly none of my friends agreed/witnessed this..!! :-)

I do agree this is a brilliant effort by an Indian director, but still..

Coming to the first war scene as mentioned above the long shot was awesome but when things were focussed close..it was kind incomplete. I felt the soldiers not putting much effort in fighting..For example when one of Akbar's associate is fighting with his counterpart, the soldiers around him showed less interest in fighting...probably it was because they were out of focus??!!!

I kinda got confused with the central theme of the movie...
Is it based on the love between Jodha and Akbar?
Is it a part of the big picture "Akbar the Great"?
I kinda felt that the theme had a mix of both...with the second part having a major portion..! The title could have been different:-)

Akbar as per my visualisation...was one of the strongest ruler of India...
A very aggressive ruler...and judiciously perfect...!
But the movie kinda potrayed Akbar as a highly influenced person...He gets influenced by almost every single person around him...Probably my history knowledge is too short to focus only on the great rule of this Mughal.
Even otherwise "Experience Maketh a Man" so the potrayal, to an extent was good..!

OK....If anyone else around thinks different on this do let me know...!
