Watch Umrao Jaan full movie on 123movies for free. Better than putlocker and fmovies. Plot: Bollywood film about the famous courtesan of the title.
Ameeran lives a poor-lifestyle with her mom, dad, and brother, Jamal, in Faizabad, British India. When her dad testifies against the local corrupt cop, Dilawar Khan, Khan swears to avenge this humiliation, and several years later, abducts Ameeran, holds her for ransom. When no money is forthcoming, he sells her. Ameeran ends up in a brothel run by Lucknow's Madame Khanum Jaan, where she is taught dance and poetry, and is subsequently re-named Umrao Jaan. Years later, Umrao has matured, is a well-known Courtesan with many patrons, chief amongst them are Nawab Sujat Ali Khan and his son, Sultan. Umrao and Sultan fall in love with each other, much to the chagrin of Sujat, who instructs Sultan either to give up Umrao or to lose his inheritance, and Sultan chooses Umrao. He gives up his father's palatial house and goes to live in the brothel, but re-locates to live with his uncle in Gadi after being taunted by Khanum Jaan.
Umrao has a new admirer, Nawab Faiz Ali, who proposes to take her. Overall its a good movie especially if you enjoy watching old classics again. The first half of the movie was very disappointing.
The acting was not up to the par and dialog didn't flow smoothly. Too many songs and some of the conversations were little too long.
They could have easily edited those long scenes to make it shorter and more appealing. The second half was great!
The story line picks up, there is more going on than just lovey dubbey conversations and songs between Umaro and Nawab as was the case in the first half. I think Aish acted really well and as always she looked great with those costumes, jewelery and expressive eyes.
