MAIN AUR MRS KHANNA had the potential to be an intense, intricate, complicated story of love. However, the weak writing has let the film down. It’s really sad because they had one of the best actresses in Bollywood playing the lead in Kareena Kapoor.
They also had Salman Khan, a top draw for distributors across the globe. But the intensity of the romance between Salman and Kareena is wasted away by novice twist, which takes the sting out of the tale.
The meeting between Samir Khanna (Salman Khan) and Raina (Kareena Kapoor), too is not very convincing. But the film does take off after that and then crash lands at the Melbourne airport with the introduction of the ’twist’. Samir marries Raina who is from an orphanage.
However, his parents are not too happy with their son’s choice of bride. They move to Melbourne, Australia, to begin their marital life. Here, Samir faces some tough financial times, we learn, as he is involved in his firm losing out on a lot of money in the stock exchange. Not able to get a job in Australia, he decides to shift base to Singapore at the insistence of his friend.
