Probably the worst movie made by the Yash Chopra banner - it was a disapointment to see how shamelessly they could lift the screenplay from one of the best English movies and totally slaughter it. So much for being creative. Yash Chopra films were movies for which you did not have to wait for someone else's review - you could be ensured of a good time but with this movie that reputation is at stake. But he deserves a second chance, more so because it has been made by his son whose first film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge was a big hit and must have got a swollen head from that. The dialogue and the scenes were quite tacky. Girls roaming around in skimpy outfits feel insulted when they are thrown into a swimming pool. A strong professor dismissing his daughter's lover without even seeing his face. And after getting dismissed the lover doesn't even bother to get in touch with the daughter ?? The entire movie looked like trailers from other Hindi movies. Amitabh is good but wasted, Shah rukh is not as arrogant, newcomers Jimmy & Preeti are good in the 'Prem Rog' trailer. Erase from memory - not worth remembering
