This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

From my favorite movies..

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This was the film that first got me hooked on foreign-made movies. I rented it on a lark and thoroughly enjoyed it -- the overblown production numbers, the lively music, the humor, the colorful direction, the slice of Indian culture (however thin), even the subtitles. And except for one minor bit of what might be considered toilet humor, it's squeaky clean. Maybe that's part of the problem with some of those who didn't like the movie and have come to expect at least some sexuality or provocative scenes in every film.Unfortunately, even Bollywood is beginning to move into some R-rated fare instead of films like this that are closer to PG. But for those who want good, clean entertainment and don't mind subtitles and lavish musical numbers, this film makes for a good choice.

Note: The above recommendation refers only to people trying not to start counting hairs on their head for entertainment.Kehta Hai Dil Baar Baar (KHDBB), another creative title from Bollywood also follows in the great tradition of copying Hollywood movies. In this case it is Meet the Parents which was a big hit in the United States. To their credit they at least picked a good movie to rip off.The story goes like this. Sundar is a certified doctor who instead of curing people of diseases and such things, wants to attack diseases at their source: FOOD! Yes food. So he becomes a 'bawarchi' (chef) and sells healthy (!) Indian food on the streets of New York City. One day he spots Ritu Patel (Kim Sharma) who is also a doctor. The typical love story ensues after which we find out that Ritu has a very protective papa, Roger Patel (Paresh Rawal) who will only let her get married to a '3 P wala' : a Professional Patel owning Property.Unfortunately for Sundar, he is a punjabi cum south Indian, who cooks for a living and lives in his 'India on Wheels' truck. He just does not fit into Roger's mold. And so follows the tug of war between Roger and Sundar. Things get crazier before ending, Bollywood ishtyle.Although the story is a good one, the rest of the film is not upto the mark. Instead of being filled with jokes, the screenplay turns out to be a big joke itself. The lines are overused and simply not funny. Acting is also below par. I actually liked Jimmy Shergill in Mohabbatein. I thought he had some promise, but as Sundar he is below average. Kim Sharma is also below par but I didn't expect much from her so it wasn't a great disappointment. Paresh Rawal is one of my favorite actors. He usually brings his everything and manages to save even the worst of films (case in point: Awaara Paagal Deewana). But as 'The Roger Patel' he is also disappointing. I couldn't blame him too much though, he didn't have much to work with. Music is also below average. Some songs are hummable but have no long term potential.
So as I've said before, you don't want to watch this movie unless you have absolutely nothing else to do, taking into consideration that admiring your nails is something.

if you have seen the movie MEET THE PARENTS. then you practically know the whole story of the movie.paresh rawal, the father was in some scens funny. but sometimes he overacted. and his sentence CUS I'M THE ROGER PATEL made me sick.some pieces in the movie were different than meet the parents en some were even funier.the songs in this movie were nice.this movie on the whole is worth seeing but for only one time. not unlik meet the parents which i've seen a couple times.i would give this movie a 5.5. it is a standard bollywood lovestory.and if you knwo the end of meet the parents. you know what always happens in the bollywood lovestories
