Movie Reviews of Dilwale Dulhania Le JayengeMovie Review: Converted! Summary: 5 Stars
First, let me explain the literal English translation of this film's title. It is 'The Corageous One Will take Home the Bride'. A title, surely, that could only be used in Bollywood (which personally I like to call Hindi Film due to the continuous misuse of the word).
It is the sweet story of Simran (Kajol, an actress whom I now love)who is a 20-year-old Indian living with her family, a strict father (Om Puri)a kind mother and a philosophical 12-year-old sister. She dreams of falling in love et-al but agrees to an arranged marriage organised by her father.
it is also the story of Raj, a lazy party dude with a millionaire dad. They both end up on a Eurail train, Simran with a lot of sweat from her dad, and hate each other. However, they eventually fall in love. But when Simran's dad hears, she is rushed to Punjab for her marriage to Kuljit, a spoilt son who likes shoting things and planning to cheat on his wife.
Raj, being the Hindi Hero abd this being a Masala Movie, comes to Punjab to rescue Simi and come back hometo London with her As His Bride, ie married to him. However he doesn't realize about Simran's dad, who will NOT cancel the wedding. But, he does. All's well that end's well!
It's a 'fluffy' movie as other reviews hve poited out, but as a Bollywood fan I'm used to it. The acting is good in the love scenes and Om puri is gr8. I always feel little pags on my heart. if you're into hindi filmi music, it's good, and Shah Rukh, as my cousin put it is "cute" and she "would marry a guy like that". She also enjoyed 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', which I would most heartily reccomend to anyone who would enjoy this movie with some slapstick.
After watching this, i think a lot of peoplle will be Converted to Hndi films like I was. i feel it is important to learn about other countries' cultures and industries. I am glad that Amazon is starting to make thhese films more avaliable now.
