Every Rajput must watch Jodhaa Akbar: Gowarikar

It was perhaps the most awaited film of 2008 and it lived up to the expectations. Jodhaa Akbar has had its share of PR – good, bad and ugly. While the film wasn’t released in Rajasthan – after protests over its historical accuracy – voices of dissent are being heard in other cities as well.
But the opening weekend was good news for its producers. The film got a 70 per cent opening and the figures didn't drop over the weekend.
Jodhaa Akbar was made on Rs 40-crore budget and while it’s too early to predict if the movie will be a hit, director Ashutosh Gowarikar might just have the last laugh.
