I have seen so many people reacting to Bollywood but the way you analyse, describe, relate and articulate is amazing. People just look for the grandeur, or costumes, or how dashing/beautiful the person on screen is, but you deeply observe the content, theme, plot(before starting the video, which makes sense and is important btw and reactors who don't do that ends up laughing in the end. Dude you can't judge a piece without a pretext). This is why you're my favourite.
I completely agree with you. I love his appreciation for the intricacies in the songs and how they tell the story! He’s definitely my favourite Hindi movie reaction person 😊
Great reaction, sir! As a Scottish guy who also loves Bollywood and the visual beauty of these movies and the music, I am a huge fan of Aishwarya and appalled that this movie was a flop. This song is so astonishingly emotional, you just don't need to translate the lyrics. Try Ek toote huye dil ki from the same movie. Well done for highlighting the sheer beauty of Indian cinema
A lot of people say that she didn’t do justice to this role in comparison to rekha ji, but really is that so? Look at the emotion in her face, this movie was wonderfully done. Both actresses are very talented in their generation. I can’t even listen to this song without crying because of how powerful her performance was in this song alone. Thank you for being so candid and honest in your reaction.
Goodness me... I enjoyed this so much, I had to watch it twice. The first time my eyes were flooded ugh...she did an outstanding job conveying those deep sorrowful emotions. Love the reaction as usual. Don't know what you did differently to your hair but I'm loving the more relaxed, slightly messy look, very nice.
I can feel the sadness though I don't really get the point of what it speaks about. Overall how the scene made and how the actress acts are A+, they can make the audience feel the sadness as well. It also reminds me of Barbara Streisand's singing, in which able to make the listener tuned in to the song's emotion 🙂
Umrao Jaan is a real story she died in 1937 in Lucknow and a song named 'justaju jiski thi usko to na paya hamne' from the old Umrao Jaan movie was originally written by herself you should check the old one that was very close to originality
One of my favorite songs of this movie and this one truly is so powerful. Aishwarya perfectly conveyed the emotions for this one it really pulls on your heart and makes you want to watch it over and over again!
This was set at the time when it was hindustan 🇵🇰🇮🇳🇧🇩. The desi/south asian muslim culture is so beautiful. Umrao jaan is an Urdu novel and the first Umrao jaan movie was the Pakistani movie Umrao Jaan Ada 1972 starring pakistani actress Rani, and then bollywood made a remake starring rekha in 1981 which was clearly inspired by the pakistan one, and then bollywood made another remake in 2006 starring Aishwarya Rai which also had maintained the same essence that was in the first movie
This is actually not a particularly defining role in Aishwayra Rai's career. This film ended up being a mostly underwhelming and overlooked remake of the "Umrao Jaan" film made in the 1980s. That one is iconic, and is a defining role of the great actress Rekha,
You reacted to this song so well. Respect 🙌🏻 Please React to “Main na mil saku jo tumse” Song too of this same “Umrao Jaan” movie. These songs are soo good. You will definitely like.
Audience wasn't humbled but felt ashamed because they were humiliating her right before the song. She was performing in her hometown(her birth place) that's why she said that once who were friends are now strangers. Her own family refused to accept her as a courtesan + prostitute even after knowing that she was kidnapped and pushed into it.
Love your reaction from Usa 🇺🇸 Please react to the song (are re are ye kya hua ) from movie dil toh pagal hai staring srk and madhuri please please react ♥️
First film umrao jaan ada is release date is 1972 in urdu Pakistan drama film direacted by Hasan Tariq. Star is Rani. Then it release in india in 1981 star Rehka. And now 2006 .
Buddy in Hindi we mostly drop N if its the last alphabet in a word followed by i..like French drop H and S while pronunciating English words..N is pronounce through Nasal.
This song is testimony to Aishwarya's poweful acting, to humanise the misogynistic practices of the time; however, the clips that intersperse the song are a somewhat ham-fisted attempt to hold up a mirror to society (and the audience), whereas this had not been given sufficient prominence for much of the film. That said, while Aishwarya is, as ever, a technically brilliant and expressive dancer, I don't believe this was her best performance, as it seemed a little too maudlin in places (it had none of the complexity she brought to Jodha Akbar or Devdas), and the chemistry between her and Bachchan was wooden (frankly, Rai outshines him in every scene). The film also drew unfavourable comparisons with Memoirs of a Geisha, which was released a little earlier. You compare this film to Devdas, but a better comparison may be made with 1959 masterpiece, Mughal-e-Azam, in which a prince (Dilip Kumar) and a dancer of the court (Madhubala) defy the will of the king in truly epic fashion. But it is Madhubala who adds weight to the film, and is in a class of her own, both for her dancing and her acting (all the more remarkable given her terminal illness and her very real suffering at the hands of the director). Compulsory viewing has to be Jab Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya; I love how she is able to make the other characters in this song uncomfortable with her every piercing glance. Teri Mehfil Mein is another brilliant song from this film, but may serve better as an example of traditional poetic duelling - usually the preserve of masters of classical music. Indeed, the lyrics are very pointed in their meaning, being laced with barbs as much as debating the nature of love, and these barbs are a powerful expression of the rivalry between the two singers. The cinematography is tight, focusing mainly on the two singers, to the point where the love interest is almost irrelevant, until the very end. Peerless.
This is an old story retold in a new movie, the original movie was played by Bhanurekha Ganesan, Rekha. These stories are in fact strongly related to the demise of the post Mughal Indian Empire, stuff like this was the reason for the demise, it provided a chance to foreign companies to gain power and cunningly used the backing of the British Monarchy to seep into the areas of the country that were weakened in power due to immorality of royal members indulging into womanizing, gambling and drinking habits, maybe bad for the old India, but it eventually led to the rise of public and then the democratic freedom of the region in 1947 after almost 200 years. Regardless, it also sent out waves to the British Empire to start leaving the world alone, so most commonwealth nations got their freedom.
How girls were abducted and taken to different cities and sold to these places. Here, these girls were forcefully made to learn dancing and singing. Rich people of that time used to come to relax and pay large some of money.
I doubt the lyrics meant bruises on head.... Lyrics are translated literally, literally..... That verse should go like " How many bruises n marks are there on my body or how many blames are there on me, is it worth to make them count? "
Actually it's a remake of 'Joost joo jiski thi ' from the film Umrao Jaan made with Rekha ji. Of course a good remake. But then again the first film is a legend.
This is in no comparison to the original iconic Rekha’s Umrao Jaan. In my opinion this one fell quite placid. Ashwaraya in my opinion has never been a credible actors, only a decorative piece. The only movie I thought she did well was Ham Dil De Chukke Sanam. You should review songs from that movie. Great cast and the story line was very good with Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan. The song in particular to review is Nibooda Nibooda, but all other songs are also good.
Love to see you again reacting on my favortite actress :) there is just a litle problem we don' t hear you enought when you talk, the sound of the music is too loud compare to your voice :) send you love from France Sarah
Aishwarya was nominated at the National Film Awards for Best Actress for her brilliant performance in this film.
Well deserved.
@nick p yes there are.
Her acting us bad in the movie no expression
@@whiteblue6132 what the f???

No wonder she is the most beautiful woman on this planet!!
U are absolutely right, devdas and this film were career defining roles for her.
Great reaction, sir! As a Scottish guy who also loves Bollywood and the visual beauty of these movies and the music, I am a huge fan of Aishwarya and appalled that this movie was a flop.

Brilliant reaction Matthew! You have such a pure soul...
Everyone is talking about Aish , can we take a moment to appreciate Alka Yagnik ma'am for her wonderful singing ❤️
Absolutely right!!

The way she emotes is unbelievable.
It's the story leading up to her performance, javed akthar's words, and of course her eyes
I can feel the sadness though I don't really get the point of what it speaks about. Overall how the scene made and how the actress acts are A+, they can make the audience feel the sadness as well.

Exactly. Career defining for Aishwarya was Devdas.
You should react to the songs of "JODHAA AKBAR".

Must watch this movie....

Please react to more aishwarya rai song videos
Please react to Laila Majnu from the movie Aaja Nachle.

I doubt the lyrics meant bruises on head....
Lyrics are translated literally, literally.....
That verse should go like " How many bruises n marks are there on my body or how many blames are there on me, is it worth to make them count? "
Subtitles could justify the deep meaning of lyrics.
Actually it's a remake of 'Joost joo jiski thi ' from the film Umrao Jaan made with Rekha ji. Of course a good remake. But then again the first film is a legend.
Mathew, watch the Malayalam song Oru murai vanthu pataya from Manichitrataalam.
