Made in Rs 45 crore, lead actress wore 20 kg of real gold in THIS film, 50 guards used to protect her, jewellery was designed by..., the film is...
Released in 2008, Jodhaa Akbar starred Aishwarya Rai Bachchan alongside Hrithik Roshan, Sonu Sood, Nikitin Dheer, and others. The film became one of the biggest blockbuster of the decade and the chemistry between Aishwarya and Hrithik garnered immense praise. Apart from this, the historical drama captivated audiences with its regally designed costumes worn by Aishwarya. From silk sarees to pure ornate lehengas, the exquisite pieces worn by her in the film created quite a stir on the internet.
However, the major thing that came as a shocker was that the former Miss World wore a staggering 200 kg of jewellery pieces in the film. These exquisite pearls, ornaments and other luxurious metals were crafted with the support of 70 artisans. On the other hand, to ensure the safety of the jewellery, 50 guards were employed.
Aishwarya Rai looked ethereal in every frame of the film. The actress wore all kinds of different jewelleries, ranging from polki necklaces, maang teeka, to Haathphool and glass bangles.
Another intriguing detail to this historic tale is that Aishwarya discussed her own wedding attire with designer Neeta Lulla while donning her Jodhaa persona. She wanted to let go of movie's opulent costume, and opted for a stunning silk Kanjeevaram saree that evoked a strong sense of connection to her cultural roots.
Helmed by Ashutosh Gowariker, Jodhaa Akbar became the third-highest grossing film of the year. The film garnered widespread appeal, and also earned two awards: Best Choreography for the song Azeem O Shaan Shahenshah and Best Costume Design- all thanks to Neeta Lulla's impressive work.

Box Office: Housefull 5 has a good second weekend; Akshay Kumar starrer collects Rs 26 crore
The Akshay Kumar-led Housefull 5 has scored good results in the second weekend, as the film grew from Rs 5.75 crore on Friday, to Rs 11.00 crore on Sunday. The comic caper has clocked Rs 26 crore in the second weekend, taking 10-day total collections to Rs 140.25 crore. While the second-weekend trend is good, the overall collections are average, as a lot more is expected from the fifth instalment of a franchise film. With an upward trajectory in the second weekend, Housefull 5 stays in the race for a finish of Rs 175 crore in India, which ensures that the producers would not lose money, though there might not be profits too at this number. There is competition from Sitaare Zameen Par in the coming weekend, which means that the film will lose screens, but there should be enough showcasing to stay steady at lower numbers. Housefull 5 will end up being a success, though an average one. The film will stand in the north of Rs 150 crore at the end of the second week, and then it's all about the trend from there, which will decide if the run closes at Rs 175 crore, or Rs 190 crore. The global total at the end of second weekend for Housefull 5 stands around Rs 216 crore, and the film will be looking to finish in the range of Rs 270 crore. A finish in India around the Rs 200 crore mark, and a global closure at Rs 300 crore would have been sweeter, ensuring the clean hit tag, but none-the-less, the performance of Housefull 5 is decent enough, and a lot better than most of the releases featuring Akshay Kumar in the post-pandemic world. The actor would be looking to scale up further in September with Jolly LLB 3, which seems to be among the awaited films of the year. Housefull 5 Week Wise Box Office Collection: Week One: Rs 114.40 crore 2nd Friday: Rs 5.75 crore 2nd Saturday: Rs 9.10 crore 2nd Sunday: Rs 11.00 crore (Expected) Total: Rs 140.25 crore
