Not sure how much is true in this article but it says that the background score
is not complete.
Vijay/Rano,
Do you know if the score was recorded in India or elsewhere? It's an epic so
I hope it gets recorded with a nice orchestra that can do it some justice.

Jodhaa Akbar delayed?
Contrary to the official announcement, Jodhaa Akbar may not release on January
25, 2008 as the
post production work is far from complete
Sandipan Dalal
Hrithik Roshan
If sources are to be believed, the fate of Jodhaa Akbar featuring Hrithik
Roshan and Aishwarya
Rai is in a state of limbo. The film is suffering further delays and will not
release on
January 25, 2008, as declared by the director Ashutosh Gowarikar and producer
UTV Motion
Pictures.
This isn't the first time that the film's release has been delayed after the
filmmakers failed
to meet their initial release date of October 12, 2007. In circles where it
really matters, the
buzz is that the film is far from ready.
The editing is taking too long and the makers are apprehensive about the
length of the film. A
reliable source says, "Ashutosh is having a hard time cutting the film's
length to three hours.
He has too many scenes and shots to handle."
Gowarikar, however, has been unable to supervise the editing and other post
production work for
a while because of ill-health. The filmmaker has been suffering from back
problems and is
forced to stay indoors. A source from Ashutosh Gowarikar Productions Pvt Ltd
(AGPPL) says,
"Ashutosh has been unwell for a while and advised complete bed rest. We are
yet to do the
colour correction of the film."
The background score is not complete either. Gowarikar, who takes keen
interest in the music,
could not make it to the recording studios recently. Even the music launch of
the film has been
postponed to January 2008, as the music rights of the film has changed hands
from BIG music to
UTV's newly launched record label.
Previously, the actors Hrithik and Aishwarya had taken too much time to
complete the dubbing.
In fact, Gowarikar was so anxious that he even rushed to Hyderabad where Ash
was shooting for
other films and urged her to dub for the film at a local studio.
A source says, "Aishwarya was filming for Sarkar Raj and Pink Panther 2, which
left her with
barely any time to dub for Jodhaa Akbar. This prompted Ashutosh to head to
Hyderabad where Ash
was shooting for Sarkar Raj."
Ashutosh Gowarikar
UTV Motion Pictures had a high-profile meeting last week to determine the
final release date.
Apparently, they are considering February 15, but sources indicate that the
film's release may
get postponed to March. When quizzed about it, Siddharth Roy Kapoor, COO of
UTV says, "I cannot
comment on anything right now. Please wait for the official announcement."
Meanwhile, Hrithik Roshan has cut short the ongoing treatment of his knee
injury in Singapore,
and come back to the city to promote the film. Hrithik is taking active
interest in the
promotion and publicity materials of the film.
He has expressed a keen desire to be a part of all the meetings to decide on
the publicity of
the film with the director and producer. The actor is equally upset over the
delay and is
taking personal interest in the post production work as well.
