She is interesting in parts, particularly the emotional ones, but appears rather flat when playing the coy wife or sword fighting with her husband to prove her Rajput valour.

She lays down two conditions before bowing down to the wish of her father, Raja Bharmal’s (Kulbhushan Kharbanda): She will not be forced to convert and will have a small shrine of Lord Krishna in her private quarters. Nevertheless, Ali’s narrative highlights the gentle love affair between a Muslim king and his Hindu princess. Some aver that she was his son, Jehangir’s wife. There is no clear record of Jodhaa being one of Akbar’s innumerable wives, 200 according to one estimate. Director Ashutosh Gowariker and writer Haidar Ali focus in their film on the royal romance between Jalaluddin Mohammad Akbar (Hrithik Roshan) and Jodhaa (Aishwarya Rai), which grew out of something as selfish and unfeeling as a political alliance between two vastly different States. Possibly his love for a Hindu Rajput princess, Jodhaa, was largely the reason for his tolerance. He allowed Hindus to freely practice their faith, even founding a new one called Din-i- Illahi, which borrowed from many religions. CHENNAI, India - “Jodhaa Akbar” is a sincere attempt to show that Islam is not all terror and religious fanaticism in its depiction of the 16th-century Mughal king, Akbar, who ruled over vast areas of India.
