    Nice musical love story from 1999. It had fantastic music by A.R. Rahman, and this album is one his best work. Anil Kapoor was nice in his role as a cool music producer. The acting of Akshaye Khanna and Aishwarya Rai wasn?t that convincing, but the movie survived.

    It was a lot...( read more) of product placement in the movie, and particularly of Coca-Cola, which was somehow irritating. It was simply too much.

    Otherwise, a good movie.
