8/10
Hey, this was a great movie!
10 December 2004
I have to disagree with Andrea (butterflitter) on this movie, and yet it is typical for Bollywood that you will see these two extreme kinds of comments. Read the comments before watching the movie, because you have to have the right expectations to really enjoy it.

Welcome to the magic of Bollywood! These are fairy-tales of Princesses and Princes, take and enjoy them for what they are. Aap Mujhe Achche Lagne Lage is a wonderful specimen of this genre, where you can cry with the heroine and at every point you know that all will be well that ends well.

Amisha Patel is absolutely gorgeous. And if you don't understand that she must act hysterical, you have not understood Bollywood! Also -- to Amisha's defense -- her character is indeed supposed to have asthma! The scene that explained this was cut out during final editing, but you might have picked up sister-in-law's comments that she would have finally been able to "breathe freely" etc. So, the fact that Andrea has diagnosed this asthma means that Amisha has done a great job in this role.

This movie has lots of parallels to Gadar, and you should watch Gadar as well if you like a similar plot set in a historic background (Partition), and have adorable Amisha Patel again.
