Jodhaa-Akbar
The 2007 Review
WHAT A YEAR!

2007 was a big year in Bollywood. From Chak De India to Eklavya from Guru to Taare Zameen Par there was no shortage of quality cinema. It was a year when Abhishek Bachchan finally proved his acting prowess. Shahrukh Khan cemented his position as the best in the industry.

Golmaal (1979)
