[[File:jodha-akbar.jpg|frame]]
A 2008 Bollywood period movie that rivals ''Titanic'' in extravagance. The movie was made with a 400 million Rs. budget to support elaborate sets, period costumes and jewelery, battle scenes, A-list actors, and [[Filmi Music|Rahman]].
The story centers around sixteenth century Mughal Emperor Akbar (played by dreamy, green-eyed [[Hritik Roshan]]) and his Rajput wife, Jodhaa (played by [[Aishwarya Rai]] and her [[Everything's Sparkly with Jewelry|jewelry]]). The two are forced into marriage because Akbar wanted the Rajputs' allegiance. Akbar is Muslim and Jodhaa is Hindu, but despite their differences they slowly (and <s>predictably</s> charmingly) fall in love. As the romance progresses and Jodhaa becomes more influential, vague political tension builds in Akbar's court.
''Very'' Abusive of the [[Ermine Cape Effect]].
