A coming of age Bollywood movie which remains fresh and refreshing even 11 years later.
I love the youthfulness of the crew, and it was not just camera work. Imran Khan and Genelia D'Souza were both pretty young when they were shooting for this movie, and this vitality is in phase with the theme of this movie.
Two best friends ultimately finding that they are in love with each other - of course, this is an overused motif, and a story we have heard way too many times, but the beauty lies in the narration, and it felt good watching this story unfurl.
It's one of those movies where everything seems to happen in a bubble of fantasy, unaffected by whatever bad thing is happening in the outside - so in a way, this is a bad thing. But who wants a dose of realism when you just want to feel nice, and entertained?
The songs were of great, and I particularly love the Jazzy Intro, which made me feel transported to a really nice place.
As I mentioned above, the acting was fine, as it felt genuine. But this is no academy quality movie - this is basically something you would want to watch when you want to lighten your mood or something.
