Amidst all the rumours and speculations, an official statement has finally been made from the office of Ashutosh Gowariker Productions, announcing that Jodhaa Akbar, Ashutosh Gowariker's much awaited epic romance, will hit the big screen worldwide on January 25, 2008.

The change of release date is due to the fact that Jodhaa Akbar has an extremely demanding post-production schedule. Hopefully this will put to rest the umpteen rumours doing rounds that the delay has been caused by specific members of the cast and crew. Going by the response that the initial teaser posters have attained, we are sure the wait will definitely be worth it!

Jodhaa Akbar is a sixteenth century story about a marriage of alliance that gave birth to true love between the greatest Mughal emperor that ruled Hindustan, Jalaluddin Mohammad Akbar, and the fiery young Rajput princess, Jodhaa.

With Hrithik Roshan as Akbar and Aishwarya Rai as Jodhaa, the film is produced by UTV Motion Pictures and Ashutosh Gowariker Productions.
