Jan. 13th, 2010 08:45 pmThe DVD I'm watching tonight has a preview for this movie. I HAVE to see it! Romance, battles, India--total coolness!
(It sounds as if it's about as accurate as any Hollywood movie ("The director has admitted that about 70% of the movie is based on his imagination." If only some US directors would admit as much....) but it still looks like huge fun! Aishwarya Rai--rawr! Massive armies, huge palaces, spectacle--yay!
Netflixed!
ETA: The movie I'm watching (which had the trailer for Jodhaa Akbar) is Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal, which is proving to be a total kitsch gem. It's A Shot at Glory plus Bollywood, filmed in Brick Lane, with a touch of Mean Machine thrown in. The voice track is massively Hinglish, with Hindi sentences with English words thrown in and English sentences with a Hindi word or two stuck in.
I am imagining that I'm sharing the evening with my Dad. :-)
