I would be happy, if the story is captivating.

Ashutosh Gowariker hired a research team of historians and scholars from New Delhi, Aligarh, Lucknow, Agra and Jaipur to guide him on this film and help him keep things historically accurate. He clarified that the name of the film remains Jodhaa-Akbar, and not Akbar-Jodhaa as reported by sections of the media. Akbar had many wives, some of them Rajput princesses.Īshutosh Gowariker hired a research team of historians and scholars from New Delhi, Aligarh, Lucknow, Agra and Jaipur to guide him on this film and help him keep things historically accurate. It was Akbar who proposed to her father for her hand in marriage to create an alliance and also because he somehow became very fond of her. Her real name was Hira-Kunwari before marriage and after marriage she was known as Mariam-uz-Zamani.Īccording to historical texts, Akbar actually did meet Jodha before they were married.
The use of the name Jodhabai appears to have been a 19th century mistake. In reality Akbar's wife was never known as Jodhabai. Wikipedia has to say - The film centers around the romance between the Muslim Mughal Emperor Akbar, played by Hrithik Roshan and his Hindu wife, Jodhabai, played by Aishwarya.
Here are some interesting tid-bits on the self-acclaimed "magnum opus of the year" (whatever that means!).
