Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke

The first film which stars Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai together is directed by Raj Kanwar. The film is about the twist and turns in love because of certain unexpected circumstances and misunderstandings. It extends to prove that God has written the future marriage of a person already and one cannot change it. The story is of Karan, a captain in army who loves Nisha and is on the way to meet her and propose for marriage. But he rescues a girl named Sahiba from murderers. Will it change the destiny of Karan?

There was also a cameo appearance of Salman Khan as a truck driver who left Karan in Nisha's place. His role had probably no importance but it was done to just attract audience to the film.

The music by Jatin-Lalit and lyrics penned by Sameer is excellent. Most songs were sung by Babul Supriyo and Anuradha Paudwal. There were nature-environment songs, group classical dances, and the Rabba Song of desert which is very similar to a song in Andaaz (2003) which Raj Kanwar shot two years after. The film Kitne Door Kitne Paas (2002) is also having a story which is little similar to Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke (2000). The total duration of the film was approximately 2hours 37 minutes (if we exclude the interval) and it is a great movie to explore the Indian culture in wedding.

This is the first time that Abhishek and Aishwariya starred in a movie together and next to GURU this is their best movie so far. So the movie is ïnspired"by the Keanu Reeves film A WALK IN THE CLOUDS. so what. Nice to know is that Abhishek's ex-grilfriend Sonali Bendre also has a small role in the film. Special mention must go to the fact that this is so far the only movie and there never will be another in which you get to see Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwariya Rai AND Salman Khan together. Yes, you read it right. The title song of the movie which has approx 4 versions is quite nice on the ears. Anupam, Amrish, Shakti and all the other supporting actors are quite good. Abhishek made this movie in his flop period before he was successful but you can see that he is a chip if the old (Godly) block

What are they thinking about when they make drivel like this. No plot, just melodrama, same stereotypes and same typecast actors in same crap no plot movie.

Abhishek doesn't belong in a role opposite Ash, he is better placed behind a terminal at Wipro Infotech.

On top of that who is that gay dude who comes as Vik to marry Ash and take her money. He is the son of Bhushan from Buiniyaad , yet another historical typecast fellow.

The only thong missing was Alok Nath as a a overemotional uncle of Ash.

...Aamir Khan

As most Bollywood movies, the plot in this one is not complicated and quite predictable. Nice & shy guy met pretty girl who fell in love with him, but he loved the other girl back home; after the 'girl friend' in his heart got married, guy went back to seek the love he missed... The problem is that hero changed his heart for another girl too 'naturally' after his unspoken love failed. True, someone's loss is someone's gain. Yet what a condescending "gain" for the poor girl who didn't get his love in the first place.

Most of the dancing scenes are imaginary and quite senseless.

Aishwarya Rai was good at playing such poignant role for sure, but she needs more colorful characters to enrich her performance experience.

I absolutely love this movie! Particularly, when compared to the abundance of contemporary films lacking in acting prowess and compelling narratives, this movie truly stood out. It not only managed to make complete sense, but also left a profound impact on me. Additionally, the exquisite beauty of its songs added an extra layer of enjoyment to the overall experience. The moment I began watching, I was immediately drawn into the world of this film. Unlike the countless movies that fall short in terms of acting and storytelling, this one exceeded all expectations. The performances were so genuine and powerful that I felt fully immersed in the characters' lives. The actors' talent shone through, making each scene feel authentic and captivating.
