Review of Eklavya: The Royal Guard (2007) by David Chute for L.A. Weekly — 04 Apr 2014
Eklavya contains only one song sequence, a lovely set piece for leading lady Vidya Balan (Salaam-e-Ishq), but it embraces the imperatives of dynastic family melodrama as fervently as any classic of Bollywood’s golden age.
This is robust storytelling, with blood and thunder pumping through its veins, and real whiskers on its face.
