very interesting subject and has presented it equally well but then he lost out on

and gets her pardon but it is not so easy when he finds Radhika, she gives him a
hard time and finally teaches him a lesson before she forgives and forgets. In the
meantime, Gayatri realizes Raj's true love and starts reaching out for him but then
he is not around. And what happens hereafter is to be seen on the screen.
Presentation:
The dialogues were good, the visuals were stunning and the locations were out of
the world, however the script was weak and the screenplay was shoddily executed.
Even the songs failed to impact except for 'Khuda Jaane' but the background score
was impressive. Editing should have been better during the second half,
cinematography was spectacular. Ranbir surely fitted the role of a flirtatious
playboy and the transformation to a realization was well executed by him, Minissha
is pretty but needs to work on her diction, Deepika is beautiful but then her role
was written in haste and lacked depth. The real show stealer was Bipasha who really
stole the limelight with her towering presence and some captivating emotional
scenes. Kunal Kapoor was elegant and though his role was brief he made his presence
felt strongly. Hiten paintal was a revelation, he has talent. The others did not
have much to do in it.
