Review: This is the highest grossing Bollywood film ever. It has some hysterical scenes with Shahrukh and is for the most part an enjoyable film. On the other hand, the storyline is pretty creepy. I'm not including the actual synopsis because it's too hard to explain. (for a full synopsis go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Om_Shanti_Om) There are 2 risque dance scenes, a murder scene (no gore), and a very rough beating (bloody). The music is awesome as is the acting. I enjoyed it more than I disliked it but I can't decide what my final thought on it is. Maybe I should watch it again =)

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
