Actors: Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Dara Singh
Director: Imtiaz Ali
Music: Pritam Chakraborty, Sandesh Shandilya
Aditya (Shahid Kapoor), a defeated industrialist, is even more broken as the girl he loves is getting married. Unable to muster up the courage to return home, he aimlessly boards a train, bounding away into the night. As destiny would have it, on the train he meets Geet (Kareena Kapoor) - a beautiful but annoyingly talkative girl who is leaving Mumbai to go her hometown - Bhatinda (Punjab). Geet irritates Aditya to the point of getting him to leave the train. As she tries to get him back on the train, she ends up missing it and the two find themselves stranded on a desolate station with no luggage or money.
Geet’s family mistakes the two for lovers. Before this misconception can be cleared, Geet escapes to her boyfriend in Manali. Aditya leaves with her, and in Manali, Aditya feels empowered to return to Mumbai and resurrect his ailing business.
There is nothing greatly original in the story but the way director handled it was brilliant. Kareena has given her best effort up till now! Shahid was equally competent. It’s a cute love story, and feels like a breath of fresh air. This well made formula movie is a wonderful weekend bonanza
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
