I've read bad reviews, but I don't agree. I found the whole film entirely enjoyable. Being used to 90 minute films I was worried about the length of Bollywood films, yet I didn't hardly notice the time.
The film captured my attention, partly due to Ash Rai and Abhishek Bachchan, both were captivating and carried the story. I even have the songs in my head still...and that only happens occasionally.
I don't know much about Indian culture but I did enjoy getting to see something un-American, to the point of deciding that maybe I should stick to World Cinema rather than Hollywood.
Personally I will be watching it many more times and encourage anyone who hasn't seen it yet to get a move on!
