Nice effects though.
It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Since I discovered Bollywood when I arrived to Holland, found out they were subtitled in English,, so over the last 13 years I have been collecting them, last weekend I stumbled over a huge box full of Bollywood DVDs so hubby bought them for me, among the DVDs in the box was this film I am reviewing,I found it delightful, I am a huge SRK fan, I think he gets better with age LOL But to be honest the "leading man" was a disappointment, the young actress that played his Punjab wife was lovely and quite good ..I look forward seeing more of her. I loved the costumes that Shimmer wore, she had such beautiful clothes. I am a bit confused,I thought the movie took place in Miami Florida, but some one said Trinidad. I rate this a seven, it was a perfect movie for a rainy day.
View Moreo.k. So this movie was lacking in the dialog department. Also it is over-the-top in a way that only Bollywood can carry off. Unfortunately it is difficult to tell in this movie if the silly melodrama is the plan or if the directing was abysmal. None-the-less, in a year of mediocre movies I enjoyed it. The stories are interesting. The younger female role, played by Ishitta Sharma was acted with sensitivity. The friendship between Shimmer (Sushmita) and Samara (Ishitta) was interesting. But it is the scenes between Shushmita Sen and Shahrukh Khan that make this movie. Shahrukh plays his character straight in this very melodramatic film and it proves to be the saving of what would otherwise have been an unwatchable film. The scenes between him and Shushmita are touching and fun and their story makes the movie.
View MoreFirst of all Iam not a Fardeen Khan or Sushmita Sen fan....and this movie was the last choice to see on a Boring day.And what a surprise....This movie was actually good....Sushmita Sen acted so good, and looked so good and even Fardeen Khan was good in the movie.BUT the scene stealer was the new girl....she is Beautiful...and her acting was top-notch....Iam sure we will see more of her in Bollwywood, and maybe she might be one of the Top ladies in Bollywood.The story has been seen before BUT still this movie has soul, and that made it good...and SRK's role was actually very good.all in all a Very good surprise, I went to the cinema for killing 2.5 hours and came out with a smile and a good experience.Forget VEER, this movie is much better.
View MoreShah Rukh Khan and Sushmita Sen are fun to see together again, but this movie has an abysmal script with inept direction and a hodgepodge of superficially presented topics. We went to see it only because of the SRK "special appearance," which makes the second half entertaining when he is on screen. Take him off screen, however, and the movie falls into the holes the director digs for the cast with slapstick taking the place of subtlety in scene after scene. Sushmita Sen surely deserves a better vehicle for her talents. As always, SRK generously does his best with his role, but we wonder if he had any regrets after seeing the final product, a movie that we bet will be out of theaters soon.
