KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

hached The movie is an Indian xerox of Switching Channels (1988), and strictly a decent one.

Velina Kozhuharova The film starts very nice and easy , allows the viewer to get used to the main characters and get to know them well enough. The story goes on to get more serious and in the same time not being overly dramatic or too much in your face. There is a lot of comedy brilliantly positioned on the right places. The cast is one of the best things about PBDHH. Shahrukh Khan plays his part excellently and you fall in love with his character pretty soon. Juhi Chawla is brilliant and brings the movie to a new level. She is one of the few Indian actresses who refuse to give the spotlight only to the hero of the movie.Her comedy timing and amazing facial expressions deserve to be applauded. Shahrukh and Juhi together are pure magic on screen. They compliment each other very well and are doing justice to their roles. Someone who really deserves mentioning is Johny Lever who delivers the best comic scenes in the movie. The rest of the cast is also doing a great job and no character is left behind. The movie has a frame and a story-line which keep you watching till the end. The overall message is strong and leaves the viewer satisfied. Overall an excellent Indian movie which gives you comedy , romance , drama and a good story. If you are a fan of Indian cinema and want to see some quality I recommend you to watch it.

Avinash Patalay Not many movies have been set against the media industry as the backdrop. The other ones that come to mind are "New Delhi Times" and "Main Azaad Hoon" and both of them though critically acclaimed didn't set the cash registers ringing. Hey, I am lost for words... jinxed perhaps?Year: 2000. Situation: TV channels was still an sunrise industry. There wasn't a glut in the market vying for the audience or a murky fight for the TRP's. Perhaps owing to which, the audience couldn't understand the meaning of media manipulation. The movie starts off on a light note with the boy and the girl working for competitor's TV channels on loggerheads with each other, no rocket science here... love-story ensues and finally getting down to serious business to fight for justice for unjust done to common man. The audience expectations were probably not correctly calibrated and the "fighting for a cause + patriotism + national movement" came as a bolt from blue to the audience resulting in an indigestible fare.• SRK:: Gives his 100% to the role making it a very convincing portrayal. • Juhi:: Very good and as usual compliments well with SRK.• Satish Shah & Dilip Tahil as gullible media magnets were justified.• Paresh Rawal as the "eye-of-the-storm" has his moments and delivers to the utmost perfection.• Govind Namdeo and Shakti Kapoor as vile politicians justify their parts well.• Johnny Lever is usual self.• It was nostalgic to see a few characters from "Nukkad".Jatin-Lalit provide good music. There is no doubt about Javed Akhtar's capabilities on lyrics. Sharmista Roy and Farah Khan deserve a special mention for contribution to art direction & choreography respectively.Director ensured that all the ingredients were in adequate proportions and doesn't go overboard on any of them. There is a soul in the movie and the goods have been delivered with conviction. Had the movie been made today, the audience would have related to it spot-on. The movie has a good social message and deserves to be posthumously declared as an satire on the media. PS: Evidently, outright rejection from the audience has put off SRK to make meaningful cinemas.

HeadleyLamarr Yes it is a bit overdone, not as slick, but it is 6-7 years older. The same story line, young folks starting out looking out for number one (themselves), then circumstances around them and the corrupt political scene changes them and patriotism takes over. The difference is that there is no violent ending and violence is not espoused in this film - but that was my least favorite part of RDB. Shahrukh Khan is of course the king himself and delivers the goods. This what he does best, the goofy adorable, the not very brave but eventually coming through boy next door type. Juhi is very beautiful and talented and does not disappoint. The music does a bit, but eventually you get to like it. The movie is very funny - a great way to be entertained.
