This year, the Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai starrer period film "Jodhaa Akbar" completed its 17th anniversary since it premiered in 2008. Keeping that occasion in mind, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has arranged for a special screening of the movie this coming March, in Los Angeles. While an official date is yet to be confirmed, speculation suggests it will take place around the 97th Academy Awards, scheduled for March 3, in the same city.
"Jodhaa Akbar", directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, portrays the legendary love story of the Mughal royalty Akbar and the Rajputana princess Jodha Bai and remains a classic Bollywood fan-favourite. While the story itself is enough to keep viewers hooked to the screen, Hrithik and Aishwarya's charisma and charm took the film to new heights. The cherry on top of Gowariker's skillful direction, the movie offers an unforgettable experience to Bollywood fans of all ages.
Gowariker expressed his heartfelt gratitude to fans on this announcement, stating, "On this 17th Anniversary of 'Jodhaa Akbar', I'm filled with immense gratitude for the audiences, that have kept it in their memory and continue to express their love for it. The film's journey—from its release to now being honoured with a special screening at the Academy—is an acknowledgment of the artistic contribution of everyone involved. The appreciation 'Jodhaa Akbar' continues to receive is truly humbling, and I'm thrilled to see it resonate with audiences worldwide.
This screening at the Academy is not just a celebration of the film but also of the rich cultural heritage it represents." This is not the first instance of the movie grabbing international attention, The Academy showcased Aishwarya's stunning wedding lehenga from the film as part of its "Colour in Motion" exhibition, curated by the celebrated costume designer Neeta Lulla. This acknowledgment highlights the film's lasting influence on Indian cinema and its artistic achievements.
"Jodhaa Akbar" brought many accolades to Indian cinema with its blend of dynamic cinematography, captivating costumes, majestic sets, and last but not the least, soulful music and performances.
