Aish has touched the heart...

Aishwarya's acting is very good in the movie. and the 2nd half of the film is really touchy.

Aishwarya is Aishwarya.

Umrao Jaan

Mat maaro meri jaan!!! Umm hhh I mean to say that Mr Dutta should revert to making war movies and leave the delicate romance for those whose forte it is!!! The fans get diappointed...

i haven't seen movie but fm the day the trailors i saw didn't make me feel to watch umrao jaan. We can't compare the movies but as it has been already said Old is Gold. Abhi is wasted for that character & fm ash u can't expect acting other than only showing off her beauty. the way it has been played by rekhaji.So gracefully she had played that character.Songs were amazing in old one. mind blowing. I think JP dutta should make only movies realated to wars.
other thing ash & abhi Pair is worst pair onscreen as well as off screen. she looks aunty in front of him.they shouldn't do any movie together.

Umrao Jaan
by Shefali on Nov 04, 2006 06:00 PM

It's a good film. Go see it. Unless you have some past life memory of 1850 Lucknow and its tawaifs, yeh discussion fizool hai. Considering Aishwarya's repertoire (all her films so far) MANY may say that this is her best performance of all. It ought to be. It's called Umrao Jaan. Abhishek has done the best he can possibly do but Hrithik in the same role would have earned a lot more oohhs and aahhs from the girls.

There is no hero and there is no role model in this film. Well, we don't expect that in nawabi, kebabi, shababi Lucknow during British Raj. Actually we don't expect much of Uttar Pradesh now either, do we? Ha ha. This film does nothing to make me proud of the culture that existed - from child marriages to dancing girls to wasteful rich men.

Aishwarya shines and the rest of them (AB, Sunil, Puru, Shabana) shine in her light. See it with or without family and be happy! Paisa vasool. 7.5 out of 10.

New Umrao
by suresh on Nov 04, 2006 05:25 PM

New Umrao is no way better than the old one . Once again it is proved "Old is Gold" Be it a movie or songs. The film makers should give away the ideas of remake of legendary movies.
