Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai

This movie is so way ahead of times. During 90s showing lead actors as father was a BIG NO however no one else by Salman would have carried this kind of script.

This might be the only Hit film in Twinkle's career because of the onscreen chemistry which really worked.

They both look so much in love.

Music also fits to the T.

I remember I took my school mates to watch this first day first show and it was Crazy.

This movie taught me how to dream about the love stories everyone want to live in real life

Love Love and only love.

Whenever I want to watch a feel good movie I play JPKHH, must be more than 100 times now.

Suraj (Salman Khan) is a rich playboy who goes from woman to woman. When he meets Komal (Twinkle Khanna), he falls in love for the first time. Just as he has finally convinced her of his sincerity, his past returns in a very tangible way and threatens to ruin his happiness.

The plot is mostly excellent, beginning as a romantic comedy and turning into a serious drama. Khan acts his part well, first as playboy, then as reformed man. He is supported by a talented cast; Aditya Narayan was especially good.

Twinkle Khanna was not particularly convincing as Komal, nor was the part written well, as Komal was not entirely likable. This detracted from an otherwise great movie.

In my list of top Hindi films of the 1990s, 'Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai' would definitely rank among the best. It is a brilliant, moving and charming romantic drama with a fantastic story and beautiful songs. Salman Khan stars as Suraj, a young and carefree man who's popular with women and who's good for nothing but chasing women, partying and drinking. But one day he meets Komal and truly falls for her. After a few ups and downs the two finally get together. However, just when things go right and everything including marriage is planned, a little kid named Kabir appears on Suraj's doorstep and claims to be his son. This brings Suraj's past mistakes back and now he has to deal with that. From then on the story follows his relationship with both Komal and particularly Kabir, and shows how he gets close to his own child, who is the result of his past affair with Pooja, a woman who is no more.

The film is interesting and entertaining, and is very well written. Honey Irani's script does not disappoint, neither do Javed Siddiqui's dialogues. The film is not without its clichés, but it is not overly melodramatic like most of the films made at that time. It has many moving moments, particularly those portraying the relationship of Suraj and Kabir. Deepak Sareen, who was Yash Chopra's assistant, directs this feature and this is probably his best work. One must also note the superb soundtrack composed by Jatin-Lalit. Every song is a pleasure to listen to. Kumar Sanu, Udit Narayan and the divine Lata Mangeshkar sing most of the film's songs, and they perform brilliantly. "Is Dil Mein Kya Hai" is catchy and modern, "Madhosh Dil Ki" is quiet and nice, but the song which is most identified with the film is the wonderful "O Janna Na Jaana" which is beautifully shot across some breathtaking locations.

Those were the days when Salman Khan fully dedicated himself to his films and roles and did the best of what he was given. 'Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai' ranks amongst the finest performances of his career. He is totally believable as the womanising and irresponsible grandson, as the loving boyfriend, and finally as the man who just learns that he is actually a father and now has to deal with this situation and take responsibility. Khan plays his part with sincerity and depth and makes his character very easy to relate to. This film also marks the best work of Twinkle Khanna's short career. Aditya Narayan is fantastic as Kabir, Suraj's illegitimate and intelligent son. Anupam Kher lends adequate support, and the beautiful Namrata Shirodkar gives a fine debut performance as Pooja. To sum it up, 'Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai' is a memorable and underrated picture, and so is Salman Khan's convincing portrayal.

Perhaps, had I not been a social worker or recently seen much better films such as Hum Aapke Hain Koun, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, and Pardes, I might have enjoyed JPKHH better.

I felt that there were several areas that did not ring true with either Salman Khan's character or the storyline and those areas were so blatant that they had a jarring effect. I especially did not like a scene where a child popped an adult's pill used to comic effect. Johnny Lever's pill popping was totally unnecessary to the entire film and dragged it to a lower level.

I would still have to give this film a 7/10 because the acting was very good, the story was OK and had a few logical surprises, and the sets, scenery and songs were all fine. I just feel that, with a little fine tuning, JPKHH could have been a much better film.

I have watched this film many times, and will say this one thing that it is a light romantic complete family entertainer, Salman's acting is among the best of his career and all other cast is first-rate.The scenes between Salman and the kid are very sweet,cute and sometimes emotional,Anupam Kher as always is dependable and of course Johnny Lever is hilarious.Twinkle Khanna can be called as the surprise package here as she delivers unexpectedly quite a credible performance .The songs are hummable and can be heard repeatedly,they are beautifully shot too.The film has also got repeat value, all in all a sweet bollywood entertainer,the only problem could be that it drags a bit in the end reels,though still a must watch !
