## Description

Bollywood drama about a horseman who abducts a little girl and takes her to Lucknow where she is trained to become a courtesan and becomes famous as Umrao Jaan Ada (Rekha). Many years later, circumstances bring her back to her old home but as a feeling of deja vu begins to overwhelm her, she realises that she can never regain what she lost.

Review: Not Bollywood - World Cinema - There just isn't - in my mind - a better Indian film than this. The story is a tragedy of Shakespearian proportions, telling of how Umrao is snatched from her parents and sold as a courtesan and how her search for love is thwarted at every turn. It has music, but the story doesn't stop as the songs and dance are part of Umrao's role as an entertainer to her wealthy clients. And it has great acting, as Rekha won the Indian Oscar (National Film Award) for her portrayal of a tragic heroine of Indian literature ... It's something far better than the typical Bollywood crowd-pleaser, but it's much more accessible than, say, Satyajit Ray's arthouse offerings. I recommend this film to every one of my movie fan friends ... and you will too.
Review: These coutresans were like the japanese gheishas - It's an old film.But shows the courtesan history of Indian moslem culture.These coutresans were like the japanese gheishas.Usually there was no sex involved and exchange of poetry and intellectual communication was sought.
