The film is based on a work of fiction (a poem) talking about a fictional character (the Queen), making it a work of fiction that’s not historically correct. From what people in Pakistan know from history books, Alauddin Khilji was not the kind of monster he is shown to be here. If you describe him in 2 words, it would be ‘Devil Incarnate’ which isn’t true. The depiction of Malik Ghafoor (Jim Sarbh) looks like a desperate attempt to make Alauddin Khilji come out as a bi-sexual when it is clear that he had the eyes for the females, beautiful ones. The 3D and Visual Effects are not as good as one expected from Bhansali and he needs to better it, just like he needs to better the quality of the film’s soundtrack.
