BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Peter Young Fine, it has a Hrithik Roshan, and he gives a fantastic first performance, but come on, this film contains too many clichés to be called totally great. Ancient story, usual romance, cheesy dialogues are the correct descriptions for this mediocre film. I had so many expectations from this film because I generally like Rakesh Roshan's films and because it had such a positive reception. Well, but this was actually Rakesh's first film in a list of films made to promote his baby Hrithik. I started watching the film. I waited and waited hoping it would get better, but nothing happened. This film was just another commercial film and it fell flat. A guy meets a girl, they fall in love, he is killed by some criminals, time goes by and she meets another guy who looks exactly like her dead boyfriend. An ordinary romance turns into a thriller, and this thriller does not stand either.Of course, not everything is that bad. The music is nice, and Hrithik Roshan gives a very impressive debut performance. He is good looking, his expressions are correct, and he is convincing in the two roles, though he is far better as Rohit, the simple guy, because he was a bit unnatural in his first few scenes as Raj, the cool guy. Anyway, it is just a debut role - I think he deserved all the acclaim, although he certainly deserved to win all the awards he won for his performance in that year's gem Fiza (where he was much better) rather than this average flick. I think it goes without saying that without him this film would have been totally unwatchable. Amisha Patel is pretty average in her debut performance and it's quite obvious that her voice was dubbed in this film. All in all, Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai is a nice one-time watch thanks to Hrithik, but otherwise I rank it along with Raja Hindustani and to a lesser extent Hum Aapke Hain Koun as one of the most ridiculous films to have become huge blockbusters and won so many awards.

voke This film was my introduction to Bollywood films. I have to admit I watched it simply because of the looks of the lead actor Hrithik Roshan. Wow! He can act too. The film is beautifully photographed. The music and dancing are very western and very well done. After this I watched several other Bollywood films, some with much more traditional Indian themes and music, and I love them all. This one is very accessible for American audiences, and if it leaves you wanting more see HUM DIL DO CHUKE SANAAM, KUCH KUCH HOTA HAI, BOMBAY, and DIL SE just to get started.

Hemanshu Desai Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai is without doubt a very entertaining movieand a great launchpad for Hrithik Roshan, the son of actor/director Rakesh Roshan. At the start of the movie he is lovable as any Bollywood actor can be as a struggling singer. Amisha is just the cute looker needed to make Hrithik look like a great lover. Of course, Amisha has done her job well, which is basically to look cute. :) The second entry of Hrithik makes him look real dashing and we get to see 2 avataars of Hrithik in one movie. There is no comment about how this is possible in the film. Rakesh Roshan had used the second avataar formula for double roles in Karan Arjun where he had made a weird unacceptable explaination... Here he solves the problem by giving no explaination. Who cares, right as long as we get to see 2 Hrithiks for the price of one. :)

shailley A great fun movie. The story line is not exactly original, but the direction, editing and choreography more than make up for it. Newcomers Hritik and Ameesha look great. The movie is fast paced and sustains interest throughout. And Hritik really is the biggest draw. He is hunky, dances well and can act too. Just the right stuff for a Hollywood star.
