Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein

Good movie to watch for especially it is a perfect movie with great acting from madhavan

Not all movies with low box office earnings are duds.. This cute flick proves just that. And another point to ponder is how can guys deciding the various awards recipients' could not recognize the valiant effort of a man, an amchi Mumbai guy, popularly known thereafter as simply Maddi!!! How many a times one can recollect an actor by his screen name n not his actual one, that too from a movie that could not ring the box office bells??? To be true, if such a thing happens then that only in a way can depict the heavy role played by that character in the picture... Meet Maddi, the local amchi Mumbai man who is an Indian at heart n gets bowled over by a truly magnificent looking girl at first sight... He breathes life into his role & puts in such a performance to have shamed many an established stars., He brings in his own style n one is gonna love him for that.. Be it his rowdy look, his mischievous nature, his ascent or his anger, its simply a style that is inimitable.. N in fact the best parts of the movie are when he is with his love interest, doing what he does best, romance.. Its a sheer pleasure seeing him emote, confessing his love, getting excited on hearing the partner's approval of him or gifting a memento to his friend , i mean he does it with a class n energy n uniqueness unheard of before.. Towards the end one can be seen equally moved n dejected on the guy being rejected!!! Not for something he ruled the charts down south n was sought by directors like Mani Ratnam sir for varied roles.. He may not have made it big in bollywood but i guess his time will come... Ably given company by the eye catching miss diya who gives a decent performance n paves way for some great on screen chemistry with Maddy.. A simple, no-nonsense girl character has been given some new dimensions by her., she will leave u spellbound by her beauty, freshness, charm n simplicity... The other co stars too act good.. Saif too pitches in with a satisfactory show. My review would be incomplete without talking about the music.. The music director from south has given some compositions dat can still be heard after more than 10years!!. Be it the beautifully sung melodious tunes in *Zara Zara*& * Dill KO tumse* & my favorite from the versatile singer KK* sach keh raha hai deewana*, a song that Will make you cry, literally n very meaningfully penned.. Another noteworthy point that may have gone against the movie is shoddy dresses given to Maddi, that simply looked old fashioned n southern in character unlike the ones adored by the lead actress. Guys, its a movie that one movie buff must have in his/her collection.. Maddy u are a diamond that needs a director to give it the sheen it truly deserves......... U not only rock but dazzle too..

This movie is just wow. Goals for all 90s kid. From music, acting everything simply beautiful.

Firstly I'd like to say that people wanting to see this film should not read the synopsis, as it gives away to much and takes the "shock" or surprise factor from the films pacing.

It is good and simple love story of a spoilt guy who falls in love at first sight, then he tries to get her by any means and re discovers his sense of righteousness.

The story is very simple and just similar to any other film of its genre. It's nothing one hasn't seen in Bollywood. The second half fairs a little better than the first as it has a minute novelty factor. The film manages to keep you engaged but at the same time feels a bit "lengthy". It could have been cut short a bit by either removing a few unnecessary scenes or songs. As, it just has only a couple of good songs, one of them is the legendary and timeless "Zara Zara" by Oscar winner A.R. Rehman and Oscar nominee Bombay Jayshree. This is the song which brought the movie in limelight upon its release. A great song indeed.

Another commendable part of the film is the performance of R. Madhavan. He solely bears the film on his shoulders and sees it to the end. He depicts wide range of expressions along with a striking charm.

Direction: Good.

Script: Strong.

Acting: R Madhavan all the way. Dia is average and one fails to feel the love towards her character. Saif is Average. Anupam Ji is good. Side actors like Madhavan's friend Vrajesh has done a good job.

Music: Zara Zara is outstanding. Songs are good but are in excess.

An enjoyable film, a bit lengthy but a good watch.

This movie was rather different in style and approach. The story was simple, thus adding to the charm of the movie. There where no "goodies" or "baddies", and the characters show some depth time and again. The rivalry between Sam and Maddy being the premise of the movie, made it a lot more interesting than your regular love drama.

I initially took this movie out as I'm a Saif Ali-Khan fan, but at the end of the movie I was a Mahdhavn fan. He is a good actor, and the character "Maddy" was so colorful that you can't help but fall for him. This movie had the best acting Diya Mirza has done to date, bar her performance in Tehzeeb. Unfortunately an actor of Saif's caliber was under-used, but Saif still manages to inject some life to the character Sam which is rather flat in comparison to the character Maddy. The surprising sensitivity that Sam shows at the end of the film was well written.

The only criticism I would have is that the character Rina seemed unable to make up her mind at the end and needs Sam to intervene, but this may be something to be expected as her family's expectations are huge weight on her shoulders. This ad's to the realism of the film.

Another reason I like this film is that it was shot on location in New Zealand, and at one point I see Diya Mirza running down a street I used to live on! They also dance in the Octogen in Duedin which is where I lived during Univesity. So to me this movie holds a special place because of the locations it was shot in, as well as being a thorough entertainer!
