Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin

One of my favourite bollywood movie, despite its lacking in few things. The movie is beautifully made, though it's copy of a Hollywood movie, the story execution till the end is perfectly done, befit to Indian scenario.

Pooja Bhatt is dam cute and fits the role perfectly well along with all actors in the movie.

The movie melts my heart and is dam funny till the end. I have watched it multiple times, and will probably watch it several more times.

Dil hai ke manta nahi.

As many of us know this movie is a rip-off of It Happened One Night. Not even one scene has been left out, yes songs have been added and some cheap comedy by the characters. I guess bollywood movies don't need storywriters or scriptwriters coz 99% of bollywood movies are copied/inspired/rip-offs from Hollywood or Japanese/Korean/French/Russian movies. If they(foreign counterparts) don't make movies, we'll be short of scripts and bollywood will be finished. But eventually I guess, nowadays we don't need their(Hollywood) story coz nowadays the quality of movies made in India are very pathetic. Nowadays, there is no storyline, the only genre of movies being made is comedy and that too very, very cheap. Item songs in a movie is a must nowadays for the success of the movie. We have and are acquiring the technology in film-making but not the class/quality of films.

I watched this movie when I was a teenager. Later I have watched it again a couple of times and its as entertaining as it was on the first time.

Anupam Kher is a talented actor, he fits well into a spectrum of roles. But I like him most as a comedian. In this movie he plays the father of the girl (Pooja Bhatt) and he plays it well :)

Some very nice songs too. Certainly worth watching.

From tackling grim and mature subjects like Arth (1982), Janam (1985) and Naam (1986) in the 80s, Mahesh Bhatt moved on to more commercial cinema in the 90s. Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahin was a musical romcom starring Aamir Khan, Pooja Bhatt and Anupam Kher.

Loosely inspired from 'It Happened One Night' (1934), Bhatt Saahab was clever enough to indianise the plot for his audience through a lovely soundtrack (Nadeem Shravan in full form) and presenting a fresh young pair - Aamir and Pooja - who sadly never teamed up again.

Pooja played a richie rich heiress on the run from her eccentric father (Anupam Kher) while Aamir Khan was Raghu Jaitley, a street smart journo, who strikes a deal to help her out in return for her exclusive story. The film also had elements of 'road movie genre' which was not quite common in Bollywood those days.

Aamir and Pooja rocked as a pair and this film certainly ranks amongst Pooja's top three performances - the other two being Daddy (1990) and Sadak (1991).

I watched the film in its first weekend at Gaiety Galaxy, Bandra and then multiple times on VHS. The melodious numbers, Aamir Pooja's super cool chemistry and the hilarious climax is still etched in my mind. Do give it a try if you still haven't seen it.

It is a great a movie. It has a very good storyline and it doesn't bore you for one moment. It is really fun to watch it. Aamir Khan and Pooja Bhatt are both great in it. Very good romantic movie with amazing songs.
