Hooray for Bollywood
28 August 2003
Koi...Mil Gaya proves that Indian cinema has nothing to envy any other type of cinema. Bollywood produces hundreds of films that are pleasant, if somehow naive, for the Western taste, but they are so well intentioned that who can find fault with them? Either you go and enjoy, or avoid them like the plague!

This film has a little bit for everyone. Director Rakesh Roshan has crafted this film very carefully. The beauty of the region where it was filmed, is the best backdrop to this movie with the right elements to please whoever venture to the theatre to watch it.

The film is greatly helped by the two stars, Hrithik Roshan and Preitty Zinta. Both are handsome performers, as well as dancers. The musical numbers are very well staged. At times they feel one is watching a musical video of an Indian song.

While this film will not convert anyone to a Bollywood devotee, it's pretty enough to enjoy. Spending a steamy summer afternoon in air-conditioned surroundings taking the music and dance numbers will make you think: Yes, Hooray for Bollywood!!!!
