 India FM shares a few views with me, and i dont want to reinvent the wheel :) so here is something directly from them<br /><br />A.R. Rahman's music is not the type that you take to instantly, but yes, it gels  beautifully with the mood of the film. 'Azeem-o-Shaan Shahenshah' and  'Jashn-e-Bahara' are the best tracks in terms of tune. In terms of choreography,  'Azeem-o-Shaan Shahenshah' is awe-inspiring, while the execution of 'Khwaja Mere  Khwaja' is outstanding. Rahman's background score is simply extra-ordinary. <br /><br />Some instances:<br /><b>*</b> The war sequence at the very outset. You realize the  scale and magnitude of the film at the very beginning.<br /><b>*</b> Hrithik  taming an out-of-control elephant. It's hair-raising. <br /><b>*</b> The two  pre-conditions set by Jodhaa, before her marriage to Akbar. Very interesting.  <br /><b>*</b> The confrontation between Ila Arun and Ash at the kitchen, when Ash  decides to make the meal herself. <br /><b>*</b> The immediate sequence, when Ash  is asked to taste the food herself by Ila before she's about to serve the food  to the Emperor and his associates. Once done, Hrithik demanding that he be  served the meal from the same platter that Jodhaa had used. <br /><b>*</b> The  intermission point, which sows the seeds of a misunderstanding between Hrithik  and Ash. <br /><b>*</b> Post-interval, Hrithik returning to Amer to get Ash back  to Agra and the welcome ceremony by his mother-in-law [Suhasini Mulay].  <br /><b>*</b> The sword fight the very next morning, between Hrithik and Ash.  <br /><b>*</b> The 'Azeem-o-Shaan Shahenshah' track, when the entire kingdom hails  Hrithik. <br /><b>*</b> The fight in the climax [reminds you of the fight between  Brad Pitt and Eric Bana in TROY]. <br />Amazing moments indeedâ€¦<br /><br />Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is superb. Oh yes, she looks ethereal -- a compliment she  has heard a trillion times before. What's new in that? But watch her emote in  this film. You realize the amazing talent that has hitherto not been tapped by  any movie maker. A flawless performance indeed! <br /><br /><span class="normal">On the whole, JODHAA AKBAR is, without a shred of doubt, a brilliant film in all  respects. This historical has all it takes to prove the first blockbuster of  2008. Very strongly recommended!</span> <br /><br />
