This massive Bollywood spectacle is a romance of epic scale. In the 16th century, the third great Mughal emperor of India, Akbar, extends his empire through conquest. For political alliance, he marries Princess Jodhaa of the Rajputs, the most belligerent alliance of Hindus. Akbar's biggest challenge now is not merely to win battles but also to win the true love of Jodhaa and overcome resentment and prejudice. (2008; 3 hrs 29 mins; Hindi language with English subtitles; not rated: most likely PG-13)
Dr. John Henry Rice, VMFA’s E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Curator of South Asian and Islamic Art, will provide a brief introduction. This film is presented in tribute to VMFA’s special exhibition "India’s Great Mughals: Art, Power, and Opulence."
