Jodha Akbar

So what is good about jodha akbar? i know it is a very odd way of starting with a review but very appropriate. i think the film should have a disclaimer- the contents of the film are nowhere a reflection of the acting abilities of hrithik and aishwarya, the laziness of the director and the editor has no bearing on the lead actors. having made that clear lets move on.
what was that about letters being written on parchments sorry thick paper in hindi? hindi in akbars time that too chaste hindi? this from the director of lagaan who had gone to britain to search for bats from that period? but there was aamir you said? you said it. so now we know the true spirit behind the authenticity of lagaan.
so what was it that gowarikar did? he took the budget..very generous one too and made something very grand with very grand actors but without any convictions. in the end you get something much more preachy than halla bol. when will these people stop letting the present cloud their judgement of the past?
what was it that gowarikar trying to convey, that akbar loved jodha and not just kept her confined in the harem? it took 4 hours to convey that. that akbar was virtuous and wise, so what made him think that he was also a stickler for women's rights in that age and time, isn't that looking at the past from todays perspective. the muslims spoke urdu and the hindus chaste hindi, wow.
where was the editor? the songs were long and boring. and after seeing films like mithya i find it demeaning that someone would try to hoist something so silly on us.
