Will Rohan succeed in his mission? Review KABHI KHUSHI KABHIE GHAM will re-write box-office history. Its massive star cast, historic opening and extra-ordinary merits will unquestionably make it one of the biggest grosser of all times. For the drought-stricken film industry, the film will prove to be khushi, more khushi and only khushi. --www.platform47.comThis film shines from start to finish, and runs the gamut of emotions. The cinematography, sets, and costumes are brilliant. The sparkling performances of six of India's leading actors alone makes the movie worth seeing, even if some might not feel comfortable with the deep sentimentality displayed by the leading men (women are fine with this; American men sometimes find it unnerving). Hrithik Roshan is pure eye candy for women of all ages, somehow oozing sweetness and innocent sexuality at the same time. The catchy song and dance number he performs with the lovely Kareena Kapoor at their 'prom,' "You Are My Soniya," has gotten regular replays in this household for weeks (even by my 79-year old mother, who will say, "I need a Soniya fix" - it really cheers her up!). The other musical numbers are very enjoyable, too, and never seem out of place or at odds with the flow of the film. Shahrukh Khan is adorable, as always, as the favorite son, and can hold his own in the dance numbers, too. Kajol gets to show her comic side, and was great at it! And knowing that the 'parents,' Amitabh and Jaya are a married couple in 'real life' just makes their interactions in the film that much better. Don't miss this wonderful movie! If you see just one Hindi movie, make it this one! --www.platform47.comThe premise of the movie is simple, but it is the storytelling that deserves the highest marks. Karan Johar once again proves his mettle in presenting an emotional saga in a beautiful manner.He brings out the best out of his actors as well.Amitabh Bachchan as the arrogant and strict father is convincing. Jaya Bachchan is good as always. Shahrukh Khan is in top form,watch out for his chemistry with Kajol. Kajol as a typical loud Punjabi girl fits the character to the tee. Hrithik Roshan has style, emotes and dances well, and definitely steals the hearts of youngsters.The movie is a complete family entertainer. --www.platform47.comThis film shines from start to finish, and runs the gamut of emotions.
