As far as I am concerned this movie is OK. I see it from a very different light. 1. actors and actresses are supposed to be flexible and are supposed to be able to play all kinds of role or else we don't refer to them as good. So there is absolutely nothing wrong with our hero playing a romantic even though he's known for action packed roles. Even Hollywood actors and actresses play roles outside the ones they are known for e.g Tom Cruise in "Eyes wide shut" and "Vanilla sky", Bruce Willis in "Colour of the night" Even Arnold in "The twin"etc. SO I don't see that point against him at all.2 Well I agree the plot is guy saves girl from trouble and girl falls in love with guy and trouble because the family wont agree which is common but most Indian films are kind of something like and all the same the movie is still touching and it is OK for a romance film.Like I said before as far as I am concerned the movie is okay and I like it a lot I've watched the ending time and again for countless number of times cos I love it a lot. Kudos to the director. And my people in here you don't have to take things so personal as so many people are doing in here. If you hate the director there are better ways of expressing it.

i loved this movie and have the DVD i have watched it over 20 times everything in this movie is so good the songs the scenery acting everything its a love story between akshay and katrina and how they both fall in love with each other and then overcome the obstacles thrown towards them by them been engaged to sum1 else its very sweet and even though katrinas voice was dubbed she did a very good job acting wise akshay was great this guy can romance a 23 yr old at the age of 39 and look 25 only akshay could do that anil and bipasha also add a good touch to the movie but akshay and katrina carry this movie out fantastically watch it stuff the bad reviews this movie is a real tear jerker romance

"Humko Deewana Kar Gaye" is a quintessential romance movie directed by Raj Kanwar which showcases the ever evolving Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar. Fans as well as those who have never seen his films before will doubtless enjoy his charismatic performance. He shows sensitivity and strength in his portrayal of Aditya, a man who finds himself more and more captivated by the fragile and determined Jia portrayed by the beautiful Katrina Kaif. The problem is that both of them are engaged to be married to someone else. Shot on location in Calgary, Canada, the feel of the movie is very Western in many ways with a good amount of English dialogue sprinkled here and there. The music and dances perfectly compliment the budding love story and incorporate both Western and Indian dance. The colorful supporting cast starting with Aditya's fiancée, Sonia (the alluring Bipasha Basu) make the story more realistic by adding a familial dimension to it. The movie asks an important question. Will family traditions be honored or will love prevail? The answer to that question is to be found in this gem of a Bollywood movie which will show us that love is what truly connects us all.

this film is bollywood's classic love melodrama. in terms of plot it offers nothing new or interesting.but what is does offer is the fresh pairing of akshay & katrina, one of the positives of the film. director raj kanwar is famous for such melodramatic films and HDKG is no exception. there are many songs in the movie, and they keep irritating. the dialogues are okay, the technical features such as editing and cinematography are okay too, nothing brilliant. this is the type of film females will enjoy more as opposed to males.family audiences will be more suited to this film than others. the music is allover average, Fanaa is a great track and the title song is passablehdkg gets a mediocre rating more because of the fact that it offers nothing new, rather than the film being bad. i suppose, when you see too much of something, you start looking at it in a bad light??now to the performances. i have always maintained that akshay has the potential to be the amongst the top. he tries hard in hdkg, and succeeds. it is a restrained performance, another feather in his cap and makes the fact more prominent that hes amongst the best superstars today. katrina is a revelation. she looks great and acts well. a pity that her dialogues are still being dubbed! the rest of the cast are OK.in the end, the film is bad but isn't good either. watch it if you're an akshay/katrina fans or if love dramas is your cup of tea!
