From my favorite movies..

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The acting in this movie is really good.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Since I discovered Bollywood when I arrived to Holland, found out they were subtitled in English,, so over the last 13 years I have been collecting them, last weekend I stumbled over a huge box full of Bollywood DVDs so hubby bought them for me, among the DVDs in the box was this film I am reviewing,I found it delightful, I am a huge SRK fan, I think he gets better with age LOL But to be honest the "leading man" was a disappointment, the young actress that played his Punjab wife was lovely and quite good ..I look forward seeing more of her. I loved the costumes that Shimmer wore, she had such beautiful clothes. I am a bit confused,I thought the movie took place in Miami Florida, but some one said Trinidad. I rate this a seven, it was a perfect movie for a rainy day.

I bought this movie with several other Bollywood flicks and didn't know what to expect from it. I liked it from beginning to end. Yes it's another un-believable Bollywood story, but if you watch this movie you know what to expect. The characters are reasonably well developed, even their motivations are well developed. Sushmita / Shimmer is the center character, making all others meet and interact. Her character is a celebrity hungry top model, but she soon befriends a young woman who was deceived by her new husband, who happens to be Shimmer's best friend. Then the Bollywood effect occurs and situations go on as characters have to react to them and delve into their inner feelings. The whole thing is well acted, led by Sushmita with strength and class (and awesome beauty).

My wife is a die hard Sharukh Khan fan, and even though Sharukh has a small performance in this movie, we had to see this one. Mostly Sharukh is a guarantee for a good movie. Not this time.The story is very poor. Fardeen Khan plays a player who has to marry Ishitta Sharma in order to get money from his father's will. He marries her, but only for his father's money and leaves the girl in her village. This girl transforms from Clark Kent to Superman. Is was great in 1978, but nowadays we don't swallow this crap anymore as an audience.I never liked Sushmita Sen as an actress and this movie doesn't change that feeling a bit. She acts very poor and it's very strange that there blows a wind indoor everywhere where she is and is blows only through her hair and not through the hair of other women. I don't get that from Bollywood movies; why does the wind have to blow through peoples hair when they are inside a building???Sharukh Khan has grown old. He still acts clumsy and is not refreshing. We still watch movies from him like DDLJ, KANK, Darr and so on. It's a pity we cannot enjoy his new movies because they are crap. Also the part he jumped into the ocean to get a dog toy from Sushmita was very stupid. What audience swallows this crap? It's like a standard Bollywood high school movie where a student can play the guitar because that should be cool. It might be, but it is not the reality. Like Hritik Roshan drives a Lamborghini when he goes to college in KKKG but still cannot tie his shoelaces.Ishitta Sharma is a beautiful girl, good as a model but not good enough as an actress. But in Bollywood mostly it is as an actress enough to be beautiful while you lack of acting skills, like Bipasha Basu or Priyanka Chopra. I can compare her performance with the performance of Jessica Alba and that's not a compliment.The way Fardeen Khan dumps his newly wedded wife and tries to hit on her while he does not know he already is married to her and Ishitta Sharma wants to win his love for her is very crazy and stupid. In what kind of world do these people live in? Blinded by money? When Fardeen Khan is drunk on the boat and shouts to Sharukh everybody listens to him. In real life nobody would listen to a drunk fool. And why did Fardeen want to give his mother's diary to "just a girl". Like this girl is interested in what his mother has written. No, she doesn't give a "peep".What a terrible movie. Sharukh doesn't make many movies nowadays and when he does make a movie I expect a lot of it. It's a pity he cannot keep the level we are used from him. Maybe he shouldn't have signed for this role at all, but that he should have signed for the role in Slumdog Millionaire. But his loss is a gain for an other magnificent actor.

A complete waste of time. Where you want to see your stars to surprise you and you get greatly disappointment in return. I don't know why SRK accepted this script but we know about Fardeen Khan as he get very little in good roles. On the part of Sushmita, she has once again disappointed the audience. Because people love to see her but at the same time we would love to see her acting, at least some inprovements in it. The story line is really weak. Having no surprises no thrill at all. Actually the movie is a mixture of some previous Bollywood movies. After watching the movie I thought the whole team just wanted to make a movie for fun with no expectations and they were quite successful in their try. I hope everyone in the Bollywood learn something from the real King Amir Khan to pursue perfection.
