Aishwarya Rai Jodha Akbar jewellery collection

Two hundred experts worked close to 2years, moulded 400 kg of gold and valuable and semi-precious stones to reproduce jewelleries of Mughal time in Ashutosh Gowariker's authentic sentiment Hindi film "Jodhaa Akbar" .

Tanishq, the leading jewellery brand, unveiled the jewellery worn by Aishwarya Rai, who plays the Rajput princess Jodhabai and Hrithik Roshan, who features as Mughal emperor Jalaluddin Akbar, in the movie.

The exquisite pieces include sarpech (feather pin), archer's ring, arsi (mirror ring), bhor (head jewel like in Indian tika) and hansali (choker).

A blend of Mughal and Rajasthani designs, the handcrafted jewels on display are breathtakingly beautiful and give an insight to India's glorious past.The basic difference was that Mughal jewellery was much finer in craftsmanship and Rajput jewellery was more rustic. At that time - Mughals used a lot more pearls than the Rajputs did."
