Salaam-E-Ishq

The movie is fun to watch. It is an entertainer too. However some chaos erupted due to the huge star cast & mix up of stories. But it had to happen. 6 couples and more than 3.5 hrs is not an easy task after all.

Govinda's story is sweet & fun to watch & so is Akshay & Aisha's. Salman Khan again went over the top with Priyanka, need to work on it. Anil Kapur & Juhi are gud but nt much to do though. Similar was the case with John & Vidya. Sohail & Isha had just 4 scenes but of course there story ws nice & fun. Sohail seems to working gr8 on his comedy skills.

The transition between stories and scenes are good. And the song & music is just amazing. Cinematography is real gud too. But Nikhil needs to come up with a nice story to tell with similarly gud presentation. He needs to come out of shadow of Karan.

But still a nice attempt & a fair treat ;-)

What annoys me about this movie is that it could have been a classic. I mean come on this movie had so many stars in it and they couldn't afford a decent editor. I watched on a movie channel recently and with the adverts put in it was over 4 hours. I could see that the director was aiming for an epic love story on the lines of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Hum Aapke Hain Koun, which were long movies but he went too far.

Another problem with Salaam e Isnq is that there were so many stories and not all of them are good, I mean what was the point of the Sohail Khan storyline. They could have cut that part out and concentrated on the decent stories. The Salman Khan- Priyanka Chopra, Akshaye Khanna- Ayesha Takia story lines were an improvement but were still quite weak Amongst the good ones were the John Abraham-Vidya Balan, Govinda storyline and the Anil Kapoor- Juhi Chawla storyline.

The climax could have been thrilling but instead was a bore (I mean come on spending over 15 minutes on the climax you have got to be kidding me). On the other hand it is definitely not the worst film of the year and there were a lot of entertaining moments. The songs also were very good, especially the title song and Tenu Leke. If you have a couple of hours on your hands then you should give it a go. Could have been another Kuch Kuch Hota Hai instead becomes a Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna.

The movie is watchable ,but far from breathtaking. It has some great moments worth watching , but I can personally skip half of it.

There are 6 stories - some of them way too extended and some of them way too neglected.

The cast was overall good ,but the performer who really stole the show was Juhi Chawla (in those couple of minutes she had on-screen). She was the only one really acting. She delivered her role very well and made her character pretty believable.It is a miracle she did that with such a poor character story line. Govinda did a great job. Anil Kapoor and Vidya Balan were also good in terms of acting. All the others were simply okay by my opinion.

Overall not the best Hindi movie I've seen.

this movie has lot of downsides and thats all i could see. it is painfully long and awfully directed. i could see whole audience getting impatient and waiting for it to end. run time is way over 3 hrs which could have been edited to less then 2 hrs.

transition between stories is average. most people confessed being on seating expecting something better to come out.

its funny only in pockets. ambitious project and a below par execution. govinda does a fair job, anil kapoor disappointed me, rest we as expected. if u r expecting anything close to babel or love actually then its no where close.

Salaam-E-Ishq tells an epic tale of six couples. Oblivious to one another and separated by miles of distance, they are tested by life's two eyes: Tribulation and Success. Yet somehow, through destiny and fate, these six couples are brought together by the phenomenon of love…

Shah Rukh may be the greatest start since Amitabh and Amir may be Bollywood's most authentic "actor/performer" but love him or hate him, Salman Khan has some magical element that no other ever has. His pairing with Priyanka is spot on....hopefully they do more projects together.

This is one long movie...goes over 3 hours but it is not laborous and if anything, it is needed to tell the tale of 6 couples coming together from different parts of the globe.

You would have to be mad to walk awaywith the feeling of contentment after watching this. Any movie that hasSalman Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Anil Kapoor, Juhi Chawla, Sohail Khan,John Abraham and Vidya Balan will ensure a top viewing just by theirpresence alone. Nikhil Advani does a great job putting it all together.

The movie has everything...heart break and tears and laughter. John Abraham, Govinda and Akshay Khanna I'd have to say have given the performance of their careers. Vidaya Balan is not dolled up and the viewer can truly appreciate her acting talent here. Sohail Khan, while not having a major role, will make you laugh just with his facial expressions alone.

Guaranteed this one will have you back for more. Not a candy floss date movie but one to watch to really appreciate the good points of life and take some lessons out of it.
