This is a classic Bollywood movie that has everything that makes a Bollywood movie a Bollywood movie. Catchy Songs, lavish sets....
Narayan Shankar is the principle of one the top Universities in India, he believes in hard work and has no time for day dreamers or love...Three new students instantly fall in love with women around the University campus. Shankar then hires a new music teacher Raj Aryan Malhotra; a man of music who vows to bring love and happiness into the University and so the two men collide with their values, soon it is revealed that Malhotra was once a former student, who was in love with Shankar's daughter.
The film is a romantic/comedy/drama.
I viewed this on the big screen and it sends shivers down your back when the instrumental theme hits the screen. The characters that stand out are Shankar, played by Bachan who sends a strict almost military touch to the role while SRK plays the role of Raj Malhotra with a difference, more mature and day dreaming type. The six supporting actors were very good and held their own. Its very sweet to see the guys run around love struck. However I would have liked to see more of Uday and Jimmy, their careers have seem to disappear...nonetheless this film captures their greatest performances...And its also nice to see Aishwariya Rai make an appearance.
The soundtrack is amazing, songs like 'Chalte Chalte' is very catchy and will have you singing. The lyrics are very touching, one of my favourite songs in Bollywood.
score 10/10
