   what it is today, particularly the Rajput samaj. This is not to take side
with the rioters
   but the point is the director may have projected Jodhabai in a poor
state, and I must
  say I haven't seen the film yet. But I have seen the movie Mogal-E-Azam,
more than
once and I quite remember Kamal Amrohi had given respectful role to Jodha.
If Rajputs
are out to deny that Jodha was never Jalaluddin Mohammed Akbar's wife, then
that's
pure rubbish.
Anyway, if from such and other like incidents if anyone is trying to infer
that the country
is rolling backwards, he is doing the mistake of his lifetime. Progress of
10 steps forward anywhere, as in India, doesn't occur in 10 str have the
aight linear steps, it always happens like 12 steps forward and 2 steps
backwards.
Only 7 years ago, the USA did not have the draconian, barbarian system of
finger printing
every prospective tourist and immigrants. Should this mean the US is
headfing towards
utter darkness ?? Maloy sent this link only to malign India's onward march
by citing few
odd incidents. Hence my tution to him in simple arithmatic : 10 = 12 - 2.
Why take such stray incidents all that seriously and draw up vital
conclusions, leading to
falacy.
And if old movie Mughal-E-Azam has rerun in Rajasthan, it will still draw
full house crowd !!
Depends how Jodha is projected in
Jodha-Akbar...........................................................
