rishi_ff The climax is special.. It made me cry. No words to describe. Watch it.It's worth watching the development of the main character as it all ends up well. Even those who seem to have nothing, have the biggest thing a human being can have.Every being is before anything else, human. This comes to show that no one is bigger than anyone else. Even the people in the TOP today were down under once. U don't grow alone without any help!For the nostalgia in the end 100/10. For the whole movie 8/10.The songs are nice, gaining fame, although some had no context in the movie.

shailensukul What an indulgent piece of crap! Shah Rukh Khan has truly started his decline into senility! Produced by his wife Gauri Khan, the only thing holding up this movie is the decent comic direction by Priyadarshan and the convincing acting by Irfan Khan. The overblown and self gratifying scenes from Shah Rukh Khan are truly annoying to watch (yes there is even a light saber in one of the many meaningless scenes). The story and movie would have performed so much better had it not been for the distractions of SRK. Come to think of it, why hide behind the on screen name of Sahir Khan when meaningless repeats of his other films are scattered throughout the glorifying shoots. It makes one wonder about the mental condition of the actor and the negative influence he has on the direction of movies (his company is the producer). Nevertheless, the supporting cast and Irfan Khan in particular are good and make for an enjoyable watch. This film might do well in India where Shah Rukh Khan does not really have to do much in his movies than to repeat the same old clichés (he is already revered as a demi god anyway). In a more discerning overseas market with a more intelligent audience, films have to work much harder for aceptance and therefore, this film will be soon forgotten, even loathed.

prashkum-1 You can watch it once but its not guaranteed to leave you satisfied. It might have been a good end product but looks like the SRK touch has spoiled this feel good village based drama into a cocktail of dance and song sequence with unreal dialogs (spoken words are rather odd and interesting..but then Priyadarshan is like that).The ending could have been handled little better to make it more heart warming and endearing.Irfaan Khan's character is handled well. SRK doesn't touch your soul. Music is OK but songs are rather inappropriate and abrupt. Other characters appear too loud and overdone and at times get to your nerves.

hippy_kizzy The storyline did have potential, i thought that it could have been a good watch. I don't have anything against the actors, and thought that Irfan Khan and Lara Dutta were pretty amazing in this film as a down to earth, honest couple. I was very impressed with them both, who are talented anyway.But the scene with the guest house manager... that character was not needed, and like most people have said, was NOT funny but really just a pain after the first five minutes. Om Puri wasn't funny in this film, Rajpal Yadav, bless him, was his usual annoying self. I thought that it took far too long to get into any sort of real story, which was a shame because the actors were good! I love SRK, biggest fan ever, but he did really play himself in this, and he really was not needed to act in the first half of the film, which wasn't his fault. Still, i would never complain of TV time where SRK is there!So the 4 out of 10 would be for the great Irfan Khan, Lara Dutta, some of the good item songs which were overdone but were worth it, and of course, Shahrukh Khan because as mainstream as he is, you cant fault the guy really.
