  Jodhaa-Akbar ( जोधा-अकबर ) directed and produced by
 Ashutosh Gowariker, the director of Oscar-nominated Lagaan is the buzz
 of India. It stars Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in lead
 roles. Extensive research has gone into the making of this film which
 begun shooting at Karjat.
 
 
 
 
 
  The film centers around the romance between the Muslim Mughal
 Emperor Akbar, played by Hrithik Roshan and his Hindu wife, Jodhabai,
 played by Aishwarya. The music will be composed by acclaimed music
 composer A. R. Rahman. The soundtrack of the movie released on January

  In reality Akbar's wife was never known as Jodhabai. The use of the
 name Jodhabai appears to have been a 19th century mistake. Her real
 name was Hira-kunwari before marriage and after marriage she was known
 as Mariam-uz-Zamani. While this name change is debatable, Jodha,
 however,remained Hindu for the rest of her life she was married to
 Akbar.The music review of the film and the free download of Jodha
 Akbar songs are given below. The songs are in mp3 format.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  Music Review of Jodha Akbar
 
 
 
 
 
  Azeem-O-Shaan Shahenshah - Mohammed Aslam, Bony Chakravarthy  Chorus
 
 
 
  After seeing the stills of Aishwarya and Hrithik in royal costumes,
 listening to this song immediately, I was in awe of how brilliantly
 Rahman has captured the greatness and grandeur of the Mughal king and
 the era in his music! This is the song which sits in heart instantly.
 I loved the chorus and the way the female voices join the male voices
 and the male voices with the female in the second part of the song, in
 a beautiful humming . With the wonderful beats throughout the song,
 this song becomes an aural treat. There is a line in this song about
 the greatness of Akbar - Jitna kahe hum, utna kam hai †The same
 can be said about this song and the greatness of Rahman’s music!
 
 
 
 
 
  Jashn-E-Bahaaraa - Javed Ali
 
 
 
 
 
  This is a soft, lovely song that is completely in contrast to
 Azeem-O-Shaan. When I listened to this song first (in the trailer), I
 didn’t like Javed Ali’s voice that much. Now, after listening to
 the full song so many times, my opinion has changed and I find his
 voice so well suited for this song.
 
 
 
 
 
  Jashn-E-Bahaaraa (Instrumental - Flute)
 
 
 
 
 
  I love the flute. I am so happy that Rahman chose to release the
 instrumental version of the full song. If you liked the lyrics of
 Jashn-E-Bahaara and felt that you were able to relate to the mood of
 the song all the more because of the lyrics and the rendition of it by
 Javed Ali, then listen to this one that is sans lyrics. With music
 like this one, you need no lyrics.
 
 
 
 
 
  Inn Lamhon Ke Daaman Mein - Sonu Nigam  Madhushree
 
 
 
 
 
  Sonu Nigam’s voice always adds more beauty to a song, however
 good or bad it might be. The song starts with Sonu Nigam singing it so
 softly with soft beats and instruments in the background. You get
 completely immersed in it when all of a sudden you hear the chorus
 singing accompanied by some amazing percussion and then there is Sonu
 again! Wow! I loved the interlude between Sonu Nigam’s and
 Madhushree’s part. As Madhushree starts singing, I noticed that the
 lyrics didn’t have any (or many?) Urdu words. Since Jodha was a
 Rajput, there is no Urdu? If Madhushree’s voice sounded sweet when
 she sings those beautiful lines, what can you say about the part sung
 by Sonu Nigam that follows?!
 
 
 
 
 
  Mere khwaabon ke iss gulistaan mein,
 
  Tumse hee toh bahaar chhaayi hai,
 
  Phoolon mein rang mere the lekin,
 
  Inn mein Khushboo tumhee se aayi hain..
 
 
 
 
 
  Rahman’s music, Sonu Nigam’s voice or Javed Akhtar’s lyrics?
 You can’t pinpoint on one of these and say this is what makes these
 lines sound so lovely! I wouldn’t have minded if the song had ended
 right there but we are treated to the chorus and Sonu Nigam’s voice
 once again and by the time the song ends, I just can’t have enough
 of it and end up listening to the song in a loop.
 
 
 
  Mann Mohanaa - Bela Shende
 
 
 
  Like many others, I too initially didn’t like this song that much
 and felt it to be too sad and too long. But it always takes time to
 get the feel of such songs. And as I listened to it carefully , i
 heard some tabla, some string instrument playing in the background,
