This is one of the few refreshing movies.. which came and went without fireworks... reminds me of Lamhe. To tell you the truth I really liked the movie. It definitely will not appeal to the mass Indian audience coz there is no masala ... very real facts of life.
Preity Zinta is admirable in her role. The story revolves round a college student(Preity Zinta)in a small town who falls in love with a rich boy and gets pregnant and the boy(Saif Khan) for some reason refuses to take the responsibility. Very typical. There is a friend(Chandrachur Singh) who is very supportive. He helps her out during this time to overcome embarrassment and respect herself and accept her situation. It strikes a chord among women who are very prone to making mistakes in life but they are very blind to accepting the mistake. This situation can be looked at in a moral manner. Situation arise but we have to accept it and find a solution out of it.
This girl who was adored by family and friends suddenly becomes an outcast. Due to the social pressure the parents are forced mentally and emotionally to reject their beloved daughter who in their eyes could do no wrong. As the movie continues the parents (Anupam Kher and Farida Jalal) realise their mistake and accept their daughter and her unborn child. This is another positive aspect as its very difficult to accept something like this in Indian society. This situation also displays social acceptance.
The movie then goes on to show how this girl survives the odds and makes the society accept her. Well thats typical of a hindi movie ... but hey otherwise it would not have come into the commercial category :) The emotions have been very well distributed. It has got all the works of a hindi movie otherwise...
If you like something which is thoda sa Hatke then you could watch this movie !!! Good story, good emoting, good location, good music, minimum violence .. what more do you need after a hard days work ??
I recommend that you check this movie out if you are not doing anything on the weekend !!! :):)
