    An amazing pot boiler of romance, thrill and lust!

    Usually when it comes to films by David Dhawan, we usually think of comedy! Well...this film is one amongst his rare multiemotional pot boiler films like Aankhein and Shola aur Shabnam. Both being excellent films!

    Speaking of the performances, the cast is very well chosen, while Rishi and Madhuri shines as the loving couple, it is the antagonist Raj Babbar who steals the show right from the beginning!

    Raj sinks his teeth deep into the role of JB, a chauvenist and a womanizer who is crazy after the woman he lusts after. One must watch out for his expressions, they are very very real!

    Shakti Kapoor and Kader Khan are equally good, however it is Shakti who will impress you right from the beginning! His emotions are worth holding onto.

    Overall a very good film...and last but not the least..the music is too good to miss! The song in the beginning will breeze away your sadness...(incase you are sad lol).

    Anyways I give this film a 9.5 out of 10!

    Go...watch it, if you haven't.

    A movie where Madhuri tries to be Julia Roberts

    Its basically a remake of sleeping with enemy. Julia Roberts in this movie is Madhuri Dixit and the movie is bit shaped in to comedy here. Sleeping with an enemy is offcourse a novel turned in to a film where Julia Roberts is amazing but i must say madhuri has watched the film because few shots are just the same Mads disguises in to a guy to see her aunt and Julia disguises as well the water fountain shot is just exactly the same

    This movie is basically a remake but here Madhuri is wed with Raj Babbar without her will and runs away that nuptial night and as Raj behind her she tries to disguise herself in to a fancy doll that Rishi kapoor gets attracted of and then because he is still a bachelor and his grandpa wants him to marry so Madhuri becomes the fake wife and acts and there is lots of silly comedy involved and Madhuri is brilliant in her dancing.

    Mera piya Gar aaya o ram ji song is in this movie and music goes along as well. People have done their jobs but i think it was a flop film but if you have nothing else to watch you can watch this film with family or by own self. Its a time pass bollywood flick mas-ala mix.
