I wanted to watch Uday Chopra's movies so I ordered this one, but I thought I already knew how it ended based on the songs posted on youtube, but I was wrong. It ended so much better and I absolutely loved it. I think Uday is an amazing actor and this shows him off so wonderfully. It's a really great Bollywood story; very believable, grounded in reality. I mean, this could happen. It has great songs, great dance numbers, wonderful costumes and scenery, and ah - love! I highly recommend it; I've watched my copy serveral times already and I still want to keep watching it!

This was one of the first "Bollywood" movies I ever saw. Turned me into a huge fan!!
I've been trying to locate a copy for about 5 years, so thanks Amazon!!

This is the same story as ' My Best Friend's Wedding" except the genders are reversed. We have friends since childhood (Uday Chopra & Tulip Joshi). The girl rings the boy to say she is getting married to Jimmy Shergill. He realises he's always loved her and goes to undermine the wedding. He has a best friend (Bipashu Basu) who comes to help his plan and make the girl jealous.
The problem I had with this movie is that the leads (Uday & Tulip) are less charismatic than the support actors (Jimmy and Bapashu). This was also Tulips' first movie and she seemed wooden and self-conscious in her acting. So when the supports came on I lit up and when the leads came on I was less engaged. Uday is fine but this is romance rather than comedy (which many find him best in) and Jimmy is more the romantic hero. Uday and Jimmy reprise their characters from the much loved Mohabbatein (or do they play themselves in both??)
Mostly I found the music bright enough but unmemorable. As a Yash Raj film it has a professional quality look but it seemed very average for that. The story is fine and I don't mind them making remakes of Hollywood. I would have liked to care more though.
Elsewhere on the Net it gets about average - some a bit above and some a bit below. I won't bother holding onto this one.

This movie was the BEST!!!!! I found it very intertaning!!! This was my first Bollywood movie and i want more just like it!!!! I cant get enough of this movie. I watch it all the time for a pick me up! You will love it to. It is a must!!!!

This romantic comedy that is a remake of My Best Friend's Wedding (Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz) is cute, but fails to entertain you, except for the songs and the humour in the racy song 'Sharara Sharara'. Only see this if you are really bored or want a rather dry taste to Bollywood.
