Resent. Resent. More Resent.

I try to recognize it as a means to come to peace with it, but I can't. Is this just the remainder of my life?

June: Weddings

Jodhaa Akbar / Aishwarya Rai as Princess Jodhaa and Hrithik Roshan as Emperor Jalaluddin Mohammad Akbar

Time for some gorgeous costumes from two of my "comfort characters"!

As far as I can tell, they go through both a Hindu wedding ceremony and a Muslim one. I assume the mask of flowers and beads that the emperor wears is a traditional thing, although I wasn't able to find much information about it--partly because I don't know what it's called. Can anyone tell me more?

It's hard to say which outfit is more lavish, although Jodhaa clearly wins in the jewelry department. She even has ankle bracelets and toe rings! Her fingers and feet are dyed with a red substance called alta.

P.S. The movie is back on Netflix, yay!
