Kareena Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Akshay Kumar, and Lara Dutta in Dosti: Friends Forever (2005)
Karan (Bobby Deol) was wealthy and a mansion was his habitat. Raj (Akshay Kumar) had empty pockets and the sky was his roof. Karan's jet ensured that he could fly if he wanted. Raj could only depend on his two feet. Karan had a family and yet craved love. Raj had love to share, but craved a family. Karan was the eternal Casanova. Raj was the proverbial one-woman man. Karan had it all, and yet felt empty. Raj had nothing, but his heart was full. They were two people as different as can be. Yet they found a common ground. One that led to the glorious road of Friendship! Their bond was unshakable. If Karan gave Raj a home and all the material comforts, Raj gave Karan a shoulder and all the emotional security. If Karan supported Raj at every step, Raj covered up for all of Karan's misdoings. They laughed together, lied together, loved together and fought the odds together all in the name of friendship. Their blind faith in each other attracted the envy of the world. But it was this very world that never let them forget that theirs was not a relationship of equals. And how long could an unequal relationship sustain? Karan and Raj defied conventions proving that true friendship was above all such trivialities. But like a bolt out of the blue came a raging storm that threatened to sink the ship that housed the sentiments of the two friends. Was it ego? A misunderstanding? Or something more? Will it mean the end of their friendship? Will they succumb to it or will their bond survive the grueling test of time? Many talk about friendship. But only a few comprehend its sanctity.

    This is what Bollywood is all about.

    No shoddy remake of a Hollywood film. No re-hash of countless other buddy-buddy movies seen in Bollywood. No violence and no scenes that a family watching together would have to squirm at.

    Great songs, superb performances and a good solid Indian story. Suneel Darshan has again created a film that you can watch again and again. Bobby puts in one of his finest performances, Akshay is reliable as usual, Kareen and Lara give good performances for the time they have on screen. And its great to see Juhi in a role where she is not the older sister.

    Two wonderful twists, great comedy, wonderful drama, an emotional roller-coaster of a film that shows what Indian cinema is good at.

    Forget the Hollywood remakes, this is the type of film we love to see Bollywood producing.

    A Pure Emotional Romance...!!!

    Bobby Deol & Akshay Kumar as main lead was really fantastic. An Extreme Pleasure rolled throughout the film completely. Suneel Darshan coming through action thrillers to Romantic Drama proved a success one. Akshay Kumar Fitted the role well so Bobby Deol. Both Females Suppoting were good in the skin except Kareena loses somewhere in the film. It has good music & an emotional touching lyrics. Two Best Hits Songs were "Dulhania" & "Aur Tum Aaye". The Climax was too short & Akshay's Death was seen through Bobby's Son also Named "Raj". Dosti:-Friends Forever is a purely romantic emotional script thus showing how to maintain good friendship like Raj & Karan..!!! Wasiim rate it 5.8/10 citing the above statement & Its a Really Beautiful Film.

    wonderful movie

    As you can see the title of this movie is Dosti, so of course its about two best friends who can die for each other. And I really love this wonderful film.

    Its a beautiful Indian movie and I had never seen anything like this before in ma life and in Bollywood's history. So I strongly recommend you guys to watch it. There are too many emotions and a lots of comedy in this film. After all its staring Bobby Deol & Aksay Kumar.

    The story is little similar to KHNH but in this movie you can enjoy a lot. Plus, this one is much better than Kal Ho Na Ho. Because it contains friendship, love, comedy, songs and a sentimental touch that will surely make you cry in the end.

    Just another movie

    This is just another movie with a silly story, some songs & some tears. I don't want to waste my time in writing what's bad about the movie. I'll focus on the good things. Lara Dutta's performance is very good. She has such amazing screen presence. A couple of songs are really good. Kareena Kapoor is good in what she does & her acting skills are good as well. Bobby Deol is jinxed. He got the looks, the skills & the money. Unfortunately, all his movies are box office bombs. This is another multi-starer to hit cinemas. But we're really bored watching stories of friends turning into lovers, lovers turning into friends, friends being enemies, enemies being friends & so on. You can watch this movie if you're really bored. And I mean REALLY BORED!

    two friends who have such a strong bond...must see

    This is one hell of a movie....emotion....love....sadness....and lat of all but not least friendship. The story revolves around the friendship of 2 men Raj 'Akshay Kumar' and Karan 'Bobby Deol'. Even in the difference of their social status Karan a rich guy who lacked love and belonging in his life but never missed anything materialistic and Akshay who was poor and had to work hard for a living they still remained the best of friends. They were inseparable...if one cried the other made him laugh....the more unequal they were, social status etc the more closer the got and society simply envied this.However all good things always seem to come to an abrupt end eventually. Will both be affected by the society that they lived in that envied their friendship. THEY never thought so but life does have some unexpected turns and you'll have to watch the movie to find out what happens....
