It's a pleasure to hear the main characters of Umrao Jaan mouth dialogue in chaste Urdu. It takes courage to do an Urdu film, in an age where Hinglish is fast becoming the linguafranca of people. įirst and foremost, I appreciate Dutta's good intentions of exposing today's generation to the beauty of Urdu Zabaan and Lakhnawi Tehzeeb. Umrao has a new admirer, Nawab Faiz Ali, who proposes to take her. He gives up his father's palatial house and goes to live in the brothel, but re-locates to live with his uncle in Gadi after being taunted by Khanum Jaan. Umrao and Sultan fall in love with each other, much to the chagrin of Sujat, who instructs Sultan either to give up Umrao or to lose his inheritance, and Sultan chooses Umrao. Years later, Umrao has matured, is a well-known Courtesan with many patrons, chief amongst them are Nawab Sujat Ali Khan and his son, Sultan. Ameeran ends up in a brothel run by Lucknow's Madame Khanum Jaan, where she is taught dance and poetry, and is subsequently re-named Umrao Jaan. When no money is forthcoming, he sells her. When her dad testifies against the local corrupt cop, Dilawar Khan, Khan swears to avenge this humiliation, and several years later, abducts Ameeran, holds her for ransom. Umrao Jaan (2006) is considered one of the best Drama,Romance movie in India and around the world.Īmeeran lives a poor-lifestyle with her mom, dad, and brother, Jamal, in Faizabad, British India. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan,Shabana Azmi,Sunil Shetty,Abhishek Bachchan are the starring of this movie.
