Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who's survived a family wedding and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse. A good follow-up to Dil Chahta Hai.
The mood
Warm and romantic, feel-good.
The pace
A big, patient story, at 2 hr 36 min.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's long: 2 hr 36 min.
  • It's in Hindi, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1962: an older pace and style.

To her parents' chagrin, an idealistic doctor weds the unemployed man who saved her life while her ex makes it his mission to break up her marriage.
