Tumko Na Bhool Paayenge

The movie reminds me of a delicacy with a surprise element(and then what are thrillers for). This is one movie which keeps you engaged with its comical and romantic moments right from the start and puts you entirely at ease in the first half. For those who would be expecting a run of the mill romantic movie, avoid the second half and watch the end. For those who came expecting an action movie as the reviews may have it, the first half is boring and apparently pointless. But the suspense builds up slowly without crying out loud. And all elements in the first half are woven pretty well for the "two halves" to create a decent whole. What I found eye-catching was the way the two elements in the movie were combined. Arguably one of the better Indian movies.

One of the best Salman Khan's film! Best songs of the time, seriously worth watching!

Tumko Naa Bhool Payenge is a amazing Thriller with a superb twist. I have seen thousands of films in Cinema. This is one of the best Salman films I've enjoyed, you get that real good atmosphere feeling in the cinema. It was a big HIT in UK, we appreciate good filmmaking. I was told it Flopped in India, because of religion (If you see the film, you will understand). Salman wears a Islamic Chain and a Hindu Chain together, there is a reason why he does this, doesn't mean you give the film a Flop, some critics will never learn. Plus i heard not many peolle saw it because of Salman being in trouble with the law during release which is a shame because its much better then most of his future big hits. Although, it was a LITTLE borrowed from Hollywood films Bourne Supremacy and Long Kiss Goodnight. This bollywood version is FAR BETTER in every way. I'm not gonna say, what the film is about, its Best if you see it yourself. The storyline may sound boring, but its not (This is a Movie Genius Review). Salman Khan delivers one of the Best performances of his life. The Very Sexy Sushmita Sen gives a good performance. Diya Mirza looks sexy as ever, kind of a Aishwarya look alike. Great Twist, and some nice songs. Forget some of the critics with no taste giving this a flop, I recommend this.

TNBP was another post-2000 release in Salman's career that had a short venture at the box-office. Although the movie is not AS bad as its box-office fairing would say, but its hardly any great shakes either.

TNBP can be broken down in two parts: 1) The first half shows Salman's dull life with his parents in a village where he visualizes weird things abt his past every now and then. 2) In the 2nd half u see Salman out in search to piece together who he used to be as he slowly gains his memory back.

The pros to me were definitely the well directed action scenes that mostly involved Salman Khan - whose at his best when he's beating up the gundas here. Other positives were a couple of twists in the story that def. caught me by surprise and kept me interested till the very end. One thing is for sure, once the initial twist occurs b4 the intermission, TNBP will keep u glued to the screen till the end.

Cons:

• Most of the first half is just plain boring cuz nothing happens other then some lame jokes and actors looking bad while trying to speak in their village's accent.

• The cinematography has a dry feel to it throughout which makes the mood of the film appear quite dull. U can obviously tell not a lot of money was spent on this movie.

• The songs only happen to be unnecessary stop gaps.

Other then that, i would say TNBP is a decent movie that's worth a watch once for Salman's presence and some interesting twists in the storyline.

Tumko Na Bhool Paayenge is straight out of The Long Kiss Goodnight but here the director has replaced the main character with a man.

Veer (Salman Khan) is the only son of a Thakur and is the apple of his parent's eyes. Soon after his engagement to the village gal Muskan (Diya Mirza), he starts having strange visions of uniformed men chasing him and a ferocious dog attacking him. He and his family are perplexed. Is this case of reincarnation or hallucination, a long lost twin brother or amnesia.

Veer goes to Mumbai to learn more about these visions but as soon as he arrives, he meets people calling him Ali; a woman named Mehak (Sushmita Sen) claiming to be his ex gal friend, a young guy calling him bhai(guy from bad side of society) and policemen chasing him.

The first half of the film is a little too simple and long but the second half is fast-paced, slickly filmed and interesting. Action scenes are well choreographed and intelligently performed. The special effects in the flashback scenes are highlight of the film and those shots are executed with lots of style.

However placements of songs looked forced, editing needed there to make it look more impact full. Dialogues b/w Salman Khan and Diya Mirza are bad. there seems to be no consistency in the dialect as it fluctuates b/w Rajesthani and Punjabi.

Salman Khan leaves an impression in latter half of the film. while both ladies of the film i.e. Sushmita Sen and Diya Mirza look beautiful in their own ways. Recommended for action lovers.
