Movie Rec of the Day: Kal Ho Na Ho (India, 2003)

Jun 01, 2006 16:19

Today's movie rec and pic spam of the day is Kal Ho Na Ho. It's a fun, funny, tongue-in-cheek movie that turns melodramatically heart-breaking and which I adore. It's not a masterpiece but a movie I can rewatch ad nauseam. And it's set in New York City ( Read more... )

MY FAVE MOVIE WHOOO!!!!! Hee, I was actually thinking that I am long overdue to watch this movie again. :)

It's funny because the first time I saw it I liked it, but wasn't crazy about it. And then every time I saw it I liked it better and better and now I love it and it's infinitely rewatchable.

I love KHNH! It's one of my faves and eminently rewatchable. I love all the songs (maybe with the exception of "It's the Time to Disco") and the film is so funny and sad and heartbreaking and romantic.

I actually enjoy the disco song for its cheese. And yeah, it's totally totally rewatchable (which is true of all Johar movies, IMO) and it's such a perfect combo/hodge-podge of everything. Love it. And for once, a love triangle where I adore all the characters and don't know who to root for!

Okay... this is probably one I have to watch pretty soon ;) I really like Preity Zainta and Saif Ali Khan and for what you say about the premise of the film... I think I'm going to like it very much!!!

Thanks for the pic spam. I really enjoy them ;)

One of my fav Bolly movies!!! Everytime I watch it I spend the last hour crying my eyes out, seriously!!!

I know! It's such a fun, funny movie and I remember being delighted. And then that last hour sneaks in and hits you like a punch in the gut. That scene with Aman and Naina on that platform, and her crying and repeating "why do you love me so much" as he is in tears himself and is still denying it all "I don't love you" but he can't help it and his arms go around her? Waaaaaaaaaah.
