And in a nation of 1 billion people - that is a HUGE phenomenon. Only 1 Superhit so far, way back in January! The year will be remembered of course for the debut of an actor named Hrithik Roshan who was a nationwide phenomenon in India. The new year 2000 is almost over and looking back at the year on the Hindi film industry - it hasn't been hot at all.
Kaho na pyar hai hrithik roshan movie#
Rakesh Roshan has taken a typical Bollywood movie and made it with a kind of sincerety that seems like respect for the audience, not just a successful launch for his son. The action scenes are well shot, the cinematography is great (specially with the ship) the dialogues are contemporary, witty and well-written. Specially her hysterical scenes are brilliantly done. Ameesha, although occasionally stiff while dancing, and hams a couple of times- but few enough for her first film has done a great job overall. Even when singing about HER the song "Kyun Chalti Hai Hawa" is more about HIM SINGING about her, than about her- if you know what I mean- he doesnt really get into her (eg: Shahrukh and Kajol in "Kuchch Kuchch Hota Hai" Salman and Aishwarya in "Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam") except in one scene when she is tying a bandage on his arm and he is looking at her: Brilliant! The songs are infinitely hum-able. Hrithik never really conveys that attraction and passion for his leading lady. My only criticism is the lack of chemistry between the two lead actors. Notice when Raj asks his father for advice about his unrequited love for Sonia, how he uses his shoulders and hands to convey a feeling of frustration and helplessness without the typical histrionics. I loved the second half of the movie even more. He completely changes his persona from shy and unassuming to a charmer who can walk the walk and talk the talk. Besides his great looks and The Bod, he is completely comfortable and un-selfconscious on screen, moves like a gazelle, could probably dance rings around Ricky Martin and HEY- he is a good actor too! He has a double role and plays both convincingly. But amusingly enough, this is probably the closest I have been to that "ardent fan" title, having seen the movie more than an acceptable number of times, and being a Pakistani- I think we should forget the arms race- India has already conquered us with Hrithik!!!:) Hrithik is an absolute pleasure to watch. I never went through the ardent teeny bopper fan phase even in my teens. That's the one thing that I will certainly remember out of this somewhat shallow, but lighthearted and colorful movie. It's obvious that multi-talented Hrithik Roshan could make it big in the U.S. A good comparison would be to the old movies of Elvis Presley! This may have had a bit more realism and action than those, but the entire proceedings focus on Hrithik's singing, dancing, and posing in a way that glamorizes him to that extent. Much of what occurs on screen looks like a Hindi pop music video made for even pre-teenage audiences. Much of the movie is devoted to loving shots of Hrithik in various poses, and I'm certain that the female audiences in Mumbai were swooning in the crowded aisles each time he sang and danced. His charm and intense style are certainly enough to catch the interest of most any movie-goer. Suffice to say that this film would have been very average, save for Hrithik Roshan who carries the entire production on his able shoulders. Directed by his father, this spirited romp is actually a made-to-order showcase for his handsome and talented son. I later watched the dvd release of KNPH, Hrithik Roshan's first hit movie. This is a sweet, lovely popcorn movie, buy it on DVD to enjoy.Īfter reading about Hrithik Roshan, Bollywood's hottest movie star in GQ magazine, I was truly amazed at his popularity in his native India.
Theatrically, not especially challenging, but he manages to play the two roles as two different people. The songs are quite catchy, and whilst the dancing isn't as good as Hrithik's later films, I fully understand why this film made him a superstar. He is heart-meltingly sweet as both Rohit and Raj, and he does manage to convey the differences between them quite effectively (quite a difficult task as they are both "nice" young men).
This was Hrithik's debut, and as such it is a very assured performance. The story is not particularly original, but is materially lifted by the engaging performances of the two leads. Another young man with the face of her murdered love. Heartbroken young woman is sent to New Zealand, where fate has a strange trick to play upon her. He witnesses a crime committed by associates of her father, and is murdered on the eve of the concert which would have made him a huge success.

Beautiful young woman falls in love with poor, but honest, young man.
