Karan Johar may be second attempt i think so, wow great screenplay and wonderful characters almost big stars in one home. Mother and Children love emotional scenes so beautiful. Mostly movie is moving with one family and few other characters. Sharukh and Kajol they proved again they are best jodi of bollywood. Their chemistry,fun making scenes absolutely fantastic. Hats off to Music director, lovely music mesmerize bgm and classic songs to audience.Karan Johar always took in his film Shrukh and Kajol jodi to show best couple,pair on screen it proved every time. His story narration is slow but its great to sit 3.30 hrs in theater. Finally movie is a small happy family and small misunderstands... a beautiful ending.

Coming late to the party, but this is a beautifully film shot with no expense spared when it comes to the sets and the actors involved. The story is a simple one of a prodigal son, but the caliber of most of the actors involved lifts up the whole film. Of particular note, Amitabh Bachchan plays the emotionally locked- down father with gravitas and power, and Jaya Bachchan is just very real playing the loving mother. Arguably the best performance comes from Shah Rukh Khan, who hits all the right notes in his role: He particularly excels when showing the emotional pain of his situation, most notably in the big (and best) final scene, where he is outstanding. Kajol's character confused me a little - she deviated between being loud and brash to timid and subservient in different scenes, with little explanation. Hrithik Roshan was good in some scenes, but I felt he was slightly out of his depth with the other actors, with the exception of Kareena Kapoor, who has been better in other films (And indeed, seemed to be in a different film altogether here). In terms of the film itself, it could have been even better with some pruning - the second half is particularly flabby, but that could have been due to my lack of interest in the younger son and his unconvincing romance. Really, the film has its best moments when it simply focuses on its strongest actors doing their thing in a simple room, and forgets the artificial opulence, glamorous locations and undeveloped or unexplained side-plots. Would I recommend this? Absolutely - for the simple story, and the superlative acting of the three main actors if nothing else.

"Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham" was a very good movie, and I loved the story. I would have to say the dance scenes in the movie were a bit too long for me. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy the music, songs and dance in the movies from India, but I found most of these dance scenes dragging me away from the actual story for longer than I wanted. I would get engrossed in what was going on with the family and then a lengthy dance scene would take place and I had to re-group to get back into it.I don't think this is a "spoiler" but the scene where Rahul and Anjali's son sings for the school brought tears to my eyes. It was a very touching scene and the audience watching him at the school responded the same way I would have. :-)I understand Yash, their Father, thought he was right to do what he did, but I found him to be heartless at that point. Fortunately, Rohan did too. The relationship between Rahul and Rohan tugs on your heartstrings, and I was so glad that Rohan moved forward on what "he" thought was right. His method of handling the situation was smart and it gave him a chance to see Rahul's wife and child as they live.Overall, I enjoyed this movie and I think most anyone who sees it will enjoy it as well.

Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham went onto become a blockbuster hit in the year 2001. But, sometimes we are so focused on the romantic family drama that we tend to ignore the flaws in the movie.I have listed some of the obvious oversights in this film:1. The movie is set in the year 1999, where we see Amitabh Bachchan talking to his younger son Hrithik. He is seen using a Nokia 9000 Communicator cell phone in 1991 whereas the phone was launched in 1996. While we agree that Big B is the Shahenshah of all things cool, the film is stuck in a weird flashback flash-forward tussle.2. We see Amitabh singing "Aati Kya Khandala" to his wife, in the flashback portion of the film which begins in 1991, whereas the movie Ghulam released in 1998. Aamir must have secretly released the movie seven years earlier so that Amitabh could a sing the cult song.3. When Kareena a.k.a Pooja a.k.a Poo is leaving home for the college prom night, she is seen wearing a red outfit with a scarf. But, when she reaches the venue, her scarf disappears and she is seen wearing a red coat. We do believe she had a trunk full of clothes in her car. Unfortunately, Poo wasn't the most unfortunate part of the film.4. When Kareena is leaving for prom night, Hrithik tells her that she's wearing two different sandals. Kareena dismisses him saying "It's fashion" and she leaves the house, with Robby, wearing two different sandals. Upon reaching the venue, we see her wearing the perfect pair of red stilettos. How Kareena?5. When Hrithik first meets Kareena at their college, he is seen driving a red convertible Lamborghini Countach. Later in the movie, when he offers a lift to Shah Rukh Khan, his car magically changes into a silver Mercedes! Wow! Now only if we had such powers!6. When Kareena Kapoor arrives at her college, she tells her minion 'Robbie' to park her car. Apparently, he couldn't understand her fake British Indian accent and you can still see the car parked where Kareena abandoned it.
