Umarao jaan!
A flop show!

To sum up this whole film, its nothing but a disaster!
Sheer waste of energy time and money.. you might be asking me as to why I went for this movie then?
The answer is because my brother bought the tickets for this movie inspite of telling him not to buy tickets for this movie. The movie for which I wanted to go was DON. But he messed it up just because he had seen the movie already with his friends two days backL.

Now coming back to the movie, its nothing but the newer version of the old movie. The director has given it more colourful. The resources invested in this movie is all sheer waste. Aishwarya rai, has wrinkles on her face and she looks old!
Consolation to the movie are abhishek and sunil shetty(both don’t have much role to play though).
Shabana Azmi as usual comes out with a neat and a flawless performance.
It needs a lot of patience to sit through the whole movie. Each and every scene is very long. And the story also does not have a proper ending. Its too abrupt, but by that time the audience is too relived about the fact that the movie is actually over that they are not much bothered about the ending.

I have seen historical movies, but I don see any point in this movie being retaken for any reason without nay change from the original version that too when the whole trend is about giving fast paced racy movies. Umrao jaan fails to satisfy any of the demands of the present day film goers!
