5.0 out of 5 stars India will bless your soul with this film., February 21, 2011

This review is from: Umrao Jaan (DVD)

India will bless your soul with this film as it touches the depth and beauty of love without reservation. The story of the beautiful courtesan, Umrao Jaan, is so profoundly moving that you might personally experience both impatience for a love so passionate, and conversely fear it. Delve heart first into the complex layers of the beauty of India, her mannerisms and customs, and the characters of this story, impeccably portrayed by Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan. They deserve nothing but the highest praise as they become your iridescent ambassadors into the richness of India, and to life here on this Earth-plane as we seek to find the beauty and inspiration in our own lives thru true, unconditional and unblemished love. This production, directed by J.P. Dutta, is artistry that can only have been channeled from the heavens.

If you fascinated by India, as i am, then you will absolutely adore this movie. Aishwarya Rai is as gorgeous as it can be. Beautiful story, breath taking dances and songs.Not a single kiss during the entire movie. So pure and innosent, unlike European movies. The movie is 3 hour long, so take your time and enjoy every second of it. I sure did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Umrao Jaan, November 20, 2010

By 

Mohammed Abdulla Akbar "Dr. Akbar" (Florida USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Umrao Jaan (DVD)

This is a remarkable movie that touches one mind, body, soul and emotions. Life is hard, but it is fair. Umrao Jann, was rejected, detested, and even hated. Despite, the hand that life handed her she accepted her fate a made the best of it. It not unusual for the life of a cortiscan to be extremely painful. Her spirit was broken in her professional, but her soul had the strength to surrender to her destiny.
