Featured reviews
If you know how to suspend disbelief, you will enjoy this movie. It was my first Hindi movie and I saw it in India. It was GREAT!! I don't normally enjoy musicals, but this was an exception. The singing & dancing were terrific. The title song is a big hit in India. The movie didn't look much like the India I saw, but the cinematography was excellent, and the sound was Dolby Digital (Indians like their movies loud). I could follow the storyline even though I understand no Hindi. It helped that there was a smattering of english throughout the movie. I can't wait to see it again with subtitles. Apparently most Indian movies have the same plot, singing, and dancing, so if you have seen a lot of these movies, it may not excite you like it did me, but I thought it was a well made (slick comes to mind), well acted, and a well produced piece of "Bollywood". The producer introduced his son with this picture, and he has become the heartthrob of India. I'm not good at analyzing movies so I'll finish by just saying, I came out of the theater with a smile on my face, and a tune in my head. This movie was FUN!
Among recent hindi movies, KNPH (Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai) is just the perfect date movie for Valentine's day. And since this was the time around which it was released, it became a box-office blockbuster in no time.
This is no artistic movie. And its stars are not exactly skilled veterans who will challenge the likes of Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks for the 'best actor' oscar. But, this film certainly knows what it wants to give to the audience - 3 hours of entertainment, in its purest form. Its ingredients are nothing out of the ordinary - a proper love story, an antagonist, picture-perfect filming locations and a reasonably good potrayal of the ultimate triumph of true love. But, unlike other run-of-the-mill bollywood romances, the story in this one has a very nice pace and flow to it. Never once did I feel bored, or think about anything else during the movie. The film just doesn't let you too.
On the whole, a nice movie for the whole family, and especially for couples.

Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai is without doubt a very entertaining movie
and a great launchpad for Hrithik Roshan, the son of actor/director Rakesh Roshan. At the start of the movie he is lovable as any Bollywood actor can be as a struggling singer. Amisha is just the cute looker needed to make Hrithik look like a great lover. Of course, Amisha has done her job well, which is basically to look cute. :) The second entry of Hrithik makes him look real dashing and we get to see 2 avataars of Hrithik in one movie. There is no comment about how this is possible in the film. Rakesh Roshan had used the second avataar formula for double roles in Karan Arjun where he had made a weird unacceptable explaination... Here he solves the problem by giving no explaination. Who cares, right as long as we get to see 2 Hrithiks for the price of one. :)

This is one of the most adorable movies ever made. The story may not be extremely original and some of the songs may not be great but the overall effect is sure to leave you smiling. Don't expect a deep art film or edge of the seat thriller this is a feel good movie with romance comedy and a little action. and even if you don't like the movie you will have to love the guy. This dude is gonna conqueor bollywood. Watch this great movie free of vulgarity and violence often filling the screen.and u will love kaho naa... pyaar hai
Catchy songs, great dancing, beautiful locations, decent story with a touch of "Vertigo (1958)" and the debut of Hrithik Roshan, Bollywood's (Hollywood's?) next superstar. Not to be missed if you are into commercial Indian films, if not, worth a try anyway. Attention! This movie can be addictive. Consume with moderation, now that the DVD is out. :-)
