Very Well Made : A Definite Treat to Watch, 3 April 2005
7/10
Author: xbharath from United States

This is probably one of the best entertainment movies in recent times for many reasons: It is a movie about love and moves for most part on a happy note, and it has refreshingly fresh talent who *actually* have a role (unlike the usual 'Laila-Majnu' varieties). This movie is made along the lines of 'DDLJ' or 'HDDCS'.

Ayesha Takia is undeniably a hot actress in the current batch and she excels in acting too. Her role is quite subdued but an important part of the story. Abhay Deol has played the role of Viren quite well, and I think one will see more of him; hopefully in roles with more substance. The story revolves around Viren and his decisions that precipitate into bad things for his relationships. Viren is a confused character who is in search for his 'true love'. Though expectedly he finds it in the end.

What I really really liked are the long scenes with conversations that moved the story at a fast and impactive pace. Some of them go for a good 5 minutes without a break and are really enjoyable, and add beauty to the cinematic experience. Though the director need not have spent so much time on the enmity of the families or raised it to the extend he did. For the débutante director Imtiaz Ali, this is a laudable effort in keeping the story well-paced.

The comedy is built into the movie in a seamless fashion. The music is also pretty decent.

I definitely say : See It. you won't regret it.
