It is a story of Kabir, a carefree guy who has been studying engineering for the last ten years now, whose life goes for a sixer when he meets the quirky and kinky Kuhu. Kabir always wanted a girl to love but he never in his wildest dreams thought he would encounter a girl who could make him dance around circles, run around naked, ride cycles without seats, wear high heels, and many other things

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

well,to start off,I say--TO COPY SOME1'S LITERARY WORK WITHOUT PERMISSION IS A CRIME(PLAGIARISM),BUT TO COPY IT PATHETICALLY IS A SIN"!!Another famous proverb in Hindi says--NAKAL BHI AKAL KE SAATH BAJTI HAI (It requires brains to copy well)To start off,this film is a scene-to-scene,dialogue-to-dialogue rip of Yeopgijeogin geunyeo(2001).Now why do Hindi film makers have to copy foreign/regional films,is what I fail to comprehend.Its simply because of the fact that they fail to invest in the core of any film,that is a story.They pick up a hit plot & plagiarize it.I would appreciate this practice if a copyright licence is obtained.(even though BUM BUM BOLE wasn't well made,yet it was an official remake of Children of heaven(Iranian movie))Anyways,coming back to Ugly aur Ugly...oops,I mean Ugly aur Pagli,its 1 contrived effort which infuriates you through its awkwardness.The director simply copies the scenes without even making the slightest attempt to modify them according to Indian tastes.oh I'm sorry,he does actually,like changing the location of shoe exchange scene from college campus to beach.the amusement park scene from the original shifts to a roof top & Left foot-right foot game scene is shot in a mall.More importantly,the director misses the undertones which are most beautifully depicted in the 2001 Korean movie.Why does Tae Hyun Cha(Gyeon Woo/Kyun Woo) stand upon the yellow line in metro station??(watch the film)).Why does The Girl(Gianna Jun)ask Tae Hyun Cha whether he can swim??(watch the movie).Now you can plagiarize scenes but not the undertones & emotions thus leaving the viewer irritated as Ugly aur Pagli is devoid of such artistry.May be the director of Mallika-Shorey starrer himself failed to comprehend the deep meanings,undertones & layers of emotions conveyed.He just re shot the scenes without much thought process involved.May be he needs to watch Yeopgijeogin geunyeo again (& again & again & again........)to realize what blunder he has made.He just touches the topic superficially without understanding how multi layered the Korean movie was.Even the Unintentionally comic scripts Gianna Jun wrote in the film conveyed a lot about her state of mind(which is disclosed in the climax in a subtle way,I won't tell).Neither could Mallika match the brilliance of Gianna in this bizarre role nor could Shorey generate sympathy for himself as Tae Hyun Cha's innocence does.(even though Shorey is a fine actor but script is so flawed,his attempt fails)Background score helps melodramatic scenes portray better.In Ugly aur Pagli,the music & background score score nothing(though Talli song is a saving grace).While in 2001 korean film,the Piano pieces used as background score arein perfect sync with the mood of the film,thus carrying forward the narrative.The song "I BELIEVE",whenever played,moves you.(especially when Hyun Cha sits on escalator stairs helplessly at metro station with Gianna Jun searching him).The comedy scenes in ugly aur pagli are boring & evoke no interest whatsoever.In fact,so poorly executed,you will feel boredom in all those scenes.In the end,after reading this review,you all might be saying that I've drawn a lot of parallels between the 2 films,but can't help it.Its just like Watching a shawshank redemption or a dark knight on pirated disc having watched it on BLU RAY earlier!!Trust me,neither is this Ugly & Pagli watchable nor the English remake(2008)(Though Cuthbert is a fine actress).Watch this innocent romcom in korean instead & fall the Love!!

UnP ran high on anticipation levels since it comes from the same house who gave us Pyar Ke Side Effects. Honestly UnP borrows concepts/ ideas heavily from PKSE and in lots of respects it overkills – which is why the movie fails to work. The story/ screenplay/ script lack the punch.Ranvir Shorey:: Gives his usual best.Mallika Sherwat:: Was a misfit IMO. Or probably her character should have been toned down.Zeenat Aman:: Good to see her after a long time.Songs are catchy and good.The climax is straight out of Mills & Boons (read that "cheesy").

I've never seen such a terrible movie as this one in my whole life. 23 years and haven't seen nothing like it. How low can you go to copy someone's movie frame by frame??, how dumb can u be?. Perhaps the director thought ooh "my sassy girl" is a Korean movie so not much people must have seen it, i'll make my copy and take it to the Oscar. crap ????. Who haven't seen my sassy girl?, probably 1/4 of all people in the universe. I think bollywood should change it's name to HollyCopy or "hollyXerox" cause most of it's movies are Hollywood copies. but this one takes the cake, the director did't bother to use his head and shamelessly copied someone's work. He did't change a thing, can u imagine?. If it was an examination he would have copied even the name, Idiot!!!

"It was senseless."Well, Mallika would have accepted the script 'cause she is kind of "Girls are better than Boys" kind of person, but Ranvir ????? I wonder why he signed it.There were certain emotional moments that couldn't make me empathize (with Mallika mostly).There was a scene about birthday present; now, even the world's most silliest girl wouldn't do that nor even the boy would be so silly. Less comedy, or should I say only two-three situations/lines were good.Well, I feel like my money wasted, buying a ticket. Rather change your TV channel if it is aired. Buying A DVD?? Out of question.I was sheerly disappointed 'cause I liked "Pyaar ke side-effects". The only good thing was Ranvir's acting.
