Kal Ho Naa Ho (Hindi Language) (DVD)

...A Heartbeat". I watched Kal Ho Na Ho (If Tomorrow Never Comes) for the first time recently and though it was released some time ago I felt I had to review it as I really enjoyed the film (even though it was a real weepie in some parts). Be warned - it's about 3 hours long, so you might want to watch it in 2 separate sittings! ~*~ CAST/CREW ~*~ Starring the charismatic Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, the beautiful Preity Zinta and the gorgeous ...
...Ho Naa Ho was released in November 2003 and is certified 12. The film is directed by Nikhil Advani (his first film) and was written and produced by Karan Johar (who has produced many a hit Bollywood film in recent years). The cinematography is by Anil Mehta. ~*~ PLOT TEASER ~*~ Naina (Preity Zinta) is a 23 year old Indian girl brought up in Manhattan, New York - on first appearances you think she has almost everything a girl could wish for: a stable ...

...take seriously. Happily though, Kal Ho Naa Ho (KHNH) manages to stay faithful to time honored elements of the Bollywood tradition while at the same time achieving funny dialogue, a stellar soundtrack, and overall decent performances. The Bollywood musical has just gotten a makeover, and the results couldn't be more pleasing to the audience. Cast: Preity Zinta - Naina Catherine Kapur Shah Rukh Khan - Aman Mathur Saif Ali Khan - Rohit Patel Jaya ...
...theme song of the movie, Kal Ho Naa Ho that is my absolute favorite. Akhtar has combined a haunting melody with introspective lyrics that captures the melancholy side of the movie perfectly. The songs fit well with the movie, and run the range from all out exuberance to bittersweet sadness. Yes, the movie is excessively long, with many parts in the second half that could easily have been cut. Yes, Karan Johar unnecessarily ruined what would have ...

...been in love ever since. Kal ho naa ho was probaby my, what, fourth, fifth indian film that I'd seen ever and, mark my words, it will leave its mark on you. Handed to me by my friend who tried to explain the synopsis briefly but failed miserably, she huffed hotly, "Just watch it." And watch it, I did. ~ The situation ~ This tall tale follows the main character Naina, a pretty day-to-day indian New Yorker struggling with her family problems that ...
...matter with another woman... Kal ho naa ho translates into "If tomorrow never comes" and this film is a beautiful portrayal of this statement. It tackles the issues of family problems, love, confusion, heartbreak and the stresses of the busy life swarming around us. ~ The trial ~ Joking and serious at the same time, I thought this film was beautiful and is one of my favourite films, Bollywood or not. From its direction to personal performances ...

...by Javed Akhtar. **PLOT** Kal Ho Naa Ho is an excellent piece of work from Shahrukh Khan, who plays the loveable character Aman. Kal Ho Naa Ho is the story of three people who become friends and whose relationship is based on unconditional love and emotional understanding with one another. The setting is New York in present times. Life for Naina Catherine Kapur (Preity Zinta) is quite gloomy. The cause of her sombre lifestyle is a family tragedy ...
...Her daily routine includes her chores in her half Punjabi-half Catholic household in which she has to deal with a short tempered grand-mother, has to look after her little adopted sister and brother besides helping her mother Jennifer [Jaya Bachchan] deal with the family's financial troubles and study at the same time. In short, life could not be worse for this hardworking girl. But things change with the coming of Aman Mathur [Shah Rukh Khan] into ...

Review of Kal Ho Naa Ho (Hindi Language) (DVD)

Kal Ho Naa Ho(If there's no tomorrow) is easily Karan Johar's most accomplished work as a writer. Directed by Nikhil Advani and starring Shahrukh Khan,Preity Zinta and Saif Ali Khan, it is about life,love,friendship and death. The film starts off with Aman(played by SRK) moving into a newyork Indian neighborhood where he meets Naina(Preity) and _____(Saif).Naina is a shy girl who feels Aman is an irritating neighbour who tries to get on her nerves, ...

Despite of loving each other, Aman knows that he can't be with her since he has a life altering secret which he has been hiding from everyone. The film has a very emotional string attached, but never goes away from its light and entertaining treatment. The writer and director ...

this is an excellent film which can be enjoyed by all ages and the whole family.The story is a typical love story, but with a twist! Without giving too much away, the story is about 3 friends: Naina,(too busy for fun & partying!) who falls in love with Aman. Rohit,(a rich & eligible batchelor) who falls in love with Naina and Aman(fun loving and helpful with a heart of gold!), who loves Naina, but helps her to fall in love with with Rohit, rather ...

Is there a tomorrow? This film is the emotional film of all time! It makes you think about live and how we have little time to live it! We should go for what our heart says! The story evolves around three people who soon become mates! Shahrukh khan is the best acting so far which makes you cry your eyes out. He only can live up to a few months and tries to make everyone happy before he goes. Great songs with great acting make this a film to be proud ...
...a movie to remember! A typical over the top hindi film certainly worth watching. Although unrealistic (only in Bollywood do you get young female doctors blessed with glamour model looks who socialise with their perfectly healthy looking patients, who have merely months to live), the humorous and highly emotive storyline makes it enjoyable. ...

Wonderful romantic movie that can be seen again and again. Shah Rukh Khan once again does not disappoint, he plays his character, the match maker down to a tee. In my eyes there is only one Shah Rukh Khan, no matter what others have said in the past, he remains a character with so much energy, enthusiasm and as much charisma as when he first starred in his first movie. The music is catchy, the sing along type, which is always good in the car when ...
