Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003)

My Rating

Movie Info

Naina might seem an ideal daughter, but she is a disappointment to her large Punjabi family for the standard reason--she is not married and has no immediate intention to be. Though Naina is involved in a teasing flirtation with a fellow student, the wealthy Rohit, she has closed her heart against love, a result of her father's mysterious suicide some years before. But suddenly a shooting star drops into her life in the form of Aman, an infectiously optimistic and energetic visitor from India.

This marks my first bona-fide Bollywood film. (No, Slumdog Millionaire doesn't count.) And it has its merits. I love how immersed everybody is with culture, not just their native Indian culture but also that of America. I love the spontaneous breakouts into song - such unique, colorful, big productions.
