    It's truly disheartening that this cinematic gem received such low ratings on IMDb and suffered a box office failure.

    Good for a lazy afternoon.

    This is a story about Simran and her best friend-Rohan. Everyone in college thinks they love each other, but Rohan has his heart set on the pretty Preeti. And Simran is already engaged to be married to Vicky. Its just a normal college flick which takes a major turn. The girl can't do anything about it. So when no one, not even her fiancé or her parents stand by her, her bestfriend - Rohan is there for her. They start falling for each other. At this point the fiancé comes back in her life, and realises his mistake. Now Simran has to make a choice. Between her happiness and the right thing. I would recommend this movie for a lazy afternoon. Although it isn't the best movie you'll find in the recent times, its worth a watch. This is just another version of the clichéd 'Love vs Friendship' dramas. Still, the actors are sincere. The relationship between the character has a streak of innocence to it. Its all about doing the right thing.

    Great Movie

    Koi Aap Sa is a great story about friendship and how it can turn to love. Aftab and Natassha are best friends. Natassha gets raped by her boyfriend's friend and becomes pregnant. When word gets out that Natassha is pregnant everyone wants to know who's baby it is. After telling her boyfriend and parents that she was raped they don't believe her and starts claiming that Aftab is the child's father. No one stands by her when she needs them the most, not even her boyfriend; only Aftab - Her best friend. Not being able to stand everyone's comments about the baby, Aftab decides he will marry Natassha and give the baby his name. Slowly you can see their friendship grow into love. But when her boyfriend finds out the truth about her being raped he decides he wants to be with her again.

    Koi Aap Sa was an extremely great movie. Aftabs acting was great and I've never seen Natassha in another movie before this one and she acted with such ease you would almost forget shes acting and think this is really happening to her.

    It's so nice to see how your real friends would stick by you no matter what happens in life.

    Not what I expected

    The film didn't start on the best footing as the acting wasn't great and the plot seemed a repetition of the same old story line: friends discovering that they have feelings for each other. To my surprise there was a sudden twist in the plot and after that the plot and the acting only got better!

    Rohan and Simran's friendship is solid and the view that the world has on it, is realistic.

    The film took a pleasant turn and it ended up being rather good.
