Genre: Romance,
Summary: A rich, rascal and nincompoop Raj falls in love with a pretty and docile Simran. There's opposition but love wins in the end.
That's Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge in a nutshell. The film had a rich repertoire of performances. Shah Rukh and Kajol apart, there was Anupam Kher, Amrish Puri, Fareeda Jalal, Satish Shah, Parmeet Sethi Himani Shivpuri, all providing for a rare variety of entertainment.
DDLJ was a departure from the earlier love stories in some ways. Usually love stories had rebellious and defying lovers who broke shackles of caste, class and race barriers to unite. There was clear disrespect for elders, especially parents, who more often than not served as stumbling blocks.
SRK and Kajol pitch in with good performances
Review: I bought this movie after I saw Veer-Zaara because it was produced and directed by the same people. I was so bummed. I started it with my family and we turned it off halfway through because "Raj" was so immature and annoying to "Simran". She has a couple suggestive dance scenes, the filming is slightly pixely, and it was just a big disappointment. I'm going to rewatch it and maybe I'll change my rating but for now, it's towards the bottom of my list.
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars.
