In 2008, her first film Jodha Akbar, opposite Hrithik Roshan was very successful. She depicted the royal style of living of Rajasthani women in the historical film. She exhibited both her beauty and her pardanashin image. There was controversy relating to the story that was depicted in the Jodha Akbar and also the relationship of Jodha with Akbar. Hrithik Roshan was sublime in his performance and Aishwarya Rai complemented him with her majestic performance.
