Mughal-E-Azam's themes of love, loyalty and sacrifice remain as relevant as ever -- a true testament to director K Asif's vision and commitment.

Despite of all the grandeur, the film has a tender and delicate heart.

In this fully colorized version, K. Asif's already-spellbinding romance feels like it's finally, truly come into its own.

One of India's greatest feature films has been restored and colorized, giving a new generation of filmgoers a chance to see what all the fuss was about.

An example of popular folk art at its most endearing, and while the film is filled with considerable grace, as a mass entertainment it has not an ounce of subtlety.
