shanno_jee i can't believe no one noticed that its almost a ditto copy of Hollywood Movie "NINE MONTHS" starring Hugh Grant and Julianne Moore... Specially the last scene where Priety Zinta is taken to hospital and Abhishek shows up as a clumsy doctor... and in Nine Months the clumsy doctor is Robin Williams... Salam Namaste wasn't a bad movie but still the original is better... There were some really funny moments with Javed Jaffari but other than that nothing was original in this movie except for the Indian Actors. Saif Ali Khan is his usual Self... nothing out of the ordinary... wasn't his best performance... the only thing i actually enjoyed in this movie was the Music...
Dingataca I thoroughly enjoyed Salaam Namaste, I have seen it many times, and each time, I love it even more.Saif does a perfect job with his role, its flawless. He makes you laugh more than a few times, and he is brilliant. He is one of the few actors that have created a niche with the loverboy role, and can actually pull it off. Preity Zinta does also, an amazing job. She looks fresh, and has updated her sexy status. She still has the same charm she had back with earlier roles, which is fantastic, I love her acting too, its humorous, and great fun to watch.Javed Jaffrey, Abhishek Bachchan, and Jugal Hansraj make up important, but short appearances. I liked the way Abhishek narrated the story, with each introduction of a new character, the story paused and showed their history. It was very clever.Music is enjoyable - it has it all. A slow song, a fast song, a great title track, a cheesy song...The end gets a bit dreary and tries hard to maintains the humour. There are times it works, and times when it doesn't. Easier to understand when you see it.The director has done an excellent job, I must admit, Salaam Namaste is a great film, with few flaws. The script, music, directing, and acting are all fabulous. Siddharth Anand has proved himself in Indian Cinema, and has made a fantastic, very different film.Worth every minute.
nickdella This movie i found more enjoyable than Devdas new and old because Devdas i found had a very slow moving plot line and the songs didn't really capture me.I thought this was one of the best movies i had seen in a long time. I really enjoyed the songs and the storyline.The acting in the movie was great.The songs were very well written and were excellent at getting you involved in the movie. A movie without songs is not the sameThis is definitely worth watching.Nick
marugorlero2 I was so surprised by this movie! The only reason why I watched it was because my french teacher was making me watch it. I agreed after a while but I wasn't looking forward to it. I was so surprised at how good this movie was! I didn't want it to finish! It tells the story of a girl and a guy who, when they first talk don't like each other at all, but with time they fall in love and move in together. It is set in Australia and the characters are Indian. The movie, not only has a great story line, but it also shows us a lot about the Indian culture. It has a few songs in it, which are always fun. The movie has it all - i know that's cheesy - but it does! It is a great movie to have fun but it also has some really sad parts when you'll want to grab the tissues. It is amazing how many great movies there are out there but we don't realize it just because they aren't Hollywood. This kind of movie is great to have fun, and it also teaches us a lot about another country's culture. I recommend everyone to watch it, nobody will regret it... the acting is also pretty good, it is harder to tell when you don't understand the language, but it seemed decent. There are very funny lines, and of course the occasional sad part. A great movie that everyone should be able to enjoy!
