Haan Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya is a love triangle
between Pooja Kashyap (Karisma Kapoor), Shiv Kumar |
|
(Abhishek Bachchan) and Raj Malhotra (Akshay
Kumar).
The film is about a happy young couple, Pooja and Shiv. Pooja is a bright and beautiful
girl and has a bright future. Shiv too is a bright and competitive spirited guy but he is
cool and takes life as it comes. Pooja being an idealistic and romantic girl leaves her
career behind and becomes a housewife. But life takes a turn when she suspects Shiv of
adultery. Things get worse when Shiv ends up spending a night with Simone Singh due to a
landslide. Pooja leaves him and goes. She then meets Raj who lends Pooja |
|
his shoulder to cry. Raj happens to be a
person who has everything life asks for, money, fame but not love, and that is what he
craves for. He hopelessly ends up falling in love with Pooja and Pooja too starts |
liking him. Just when they are about to get
married, Shiv re-enters into Pooja's life. She then finds herself torn between the two
.... Who will she choose is what is to be seen in this film.
Dharmesh Darshan has many good films to his credit: Lootere, Raja Hindustani and Dhadkan.
Unfortunately, this film isn't all that good and not as per expectation. The story is
nothing new and the only good thing about the film is it's brilliant star-cast. This film
has Abhishek and Karisma paired on the screen for the first time and as we all know they
are paired up in real life |
|
|
as well.
The dramatic sequences in the film are well handled by Dharmesh Darshan. There are light
moments |
|
provided by Kader Khan, Shakti Kapoor and
Himani Shivpuri. Music by Nadeem Shravan is good escpecially the title track, the second
best being "Zindagi ko bina pyaar koi kaise guzare". Cinematography by W.B. Rao
is upto the mark. The outdoor locales (Switzerland) are excellently shot. Dialogues are
ordinary.
Performance-wise Karisma is best. She has put in lot of hard work and her co-workers have
to say that she is one of the most dedicated actress Bollywood owns. Abhishek needs to
work on his expressions again and |
|
Akshay is okay.
Overall, Haan Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya has nothing new to offer and can be compared to
something like old wine in new bottle. |
