Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Gypsi Bates Nandini is the daughter of a renown singer, Pandit, who takes Sameer to be a pupil. Nandini and Sameer secretly fall in love. As her family doesn't know, they betroth her to another man, Vanraj. When Pandit learns of the love between his daughter and student, he sends Sameer away and Nandini is married to Vanraj. Vanraj learns of her love for Sameer, and, as is inevitable with a love triangle, heartbreak happens.Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam begins as a romantic-comedy, light-hearted and fun, with a sweetly developing romance. About half way through, it turns into a drama that, quite frankly, had me ugly-crying by the end. While a love triangle is not a new plot, this one was well written and deep.Aishwayra Rai is a terrific actress and acted her part magnificently. Both Salman Kahn and Ajay Devgan were excellent as well, each one giving depth to his character. The music and choreography was memorable, and the cinematography breath-taking. This is a superb, emotional romance that is all around spectacular. I highly recommend it.
jesuswalk A creative adoption of novel by Maitreyi Devi, some great performances by Aishwarya Rai and Ajay Devgan , wonderful screenplay by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and a judgmental and sweet music score by Ismail Darbar, These are few things which combine to make this a masterpiece. Film is a simple love triangle but how Bansali has served it to us is watchable. He has mixed the Perfection of direction, the strength of the emotion and joy of drama together in a way the best it could be. nobody can expect that a actress can give such a heart touching beautiful performance in just starting of her acting carrier like Aishwarya Rai did and I am still wondering how Bhansali trusted her that she could carry this big movie on her own shoulder as a fresher in industry but she did it. She lived the character of Nandini and played both her life phases so genuinely in this film that it is still one of her career's great performances. Ajay Devgan, everybody knows is a great and deep actor and he does full judgment to the expectations. His entry in the movie creates excitement and brings freshness to the Soryline. Salman Khan's has both comic and emotional touch and his performance is average in movie. Sets are Grand and the colorful and magnetic culture of Rajasthan and Gujrat states is shown beautifully in movie. Story line is so gripping that we connect us to the story right from the starting and dialogs are so good that our opinion changes according to the situation in the movie. Cinematography is nice and costumes are just perfect for every scene. Last but not the least, it is the music score of the movie which take audiences to the deep of the movie and helps actors to express their emotions on screen because it so much situational and composed beautifully. Thanks to Ismail Darbar. A MUST WATCH MOVIE IF YOU LOVE 1.PERFECTION IN MOVIE, 2.MEANINGFUL CINEMA AND YES 3.INDIAN CULTURE.
suri1011 I congratulate myself for going to watch it in the theater ! It was my luck that my friend dragged me to watch this timeless masterpiece by the Guru "Sanjay Leela Bhansali". Otherwise I detest chick-flicks like DDLJ and Devdas - crap it is in comparison to this Magnum Opus! Firstly, the ravishing performance by Rai - the deserving Miss world and film fare award for this performance.And the sensitive performance by Ajay who made this film a classic. His unconditional and selfless love towards the heroine! Salman was okay. Looked good but didn't act well.Other factors like music, cinematography, choreography and locations add value to the flick and make it a BLOCKBUSTER!! A worthy successor to the music Singing in the Rain'.An infinite out of ten from my side!!
Akinrotohun Oluwafemi This movie is absolutely OK I've even bought the DVD. The acting is fine and the songs are good even though I'm not Indian I love those songs. Ash was also looking gorgeous. But somehow I feel I would have liked the film better if Sameer had gotten Nadini at last. You know even though I really love to I've never been able to bring myself to watch the film the second time. I feel somehow like their love failed and to me love never fails unless of course if all the while what Sameer and Nadini had for each other had just been a crush and Nadini later saw developed real love towards her husband when she realized he could sacrifice anything for her even his own happiness just to make her happy.
