Mildly Entertaining

I had seen every Aishwarya Rai movie except for this. The movie is not her worst (i.e. Aur Pyar Ho Gaya, Albela, and Jeans) but it is definitely not her best (i.e. Devdas, Josh, and Khakee). Unlike most of her horrible movies, she comes as more than just a beauty queen. And trust me she did come HOT. She does do good acting, and rises heavily above her script. The script and story were two major let downs. Actually the story had a nice thing going, but I lost track of the story in the second half. The introduction for Aishwarya Rai feels out of place, but the introduction of Sanjay Dutt reminded me of Khal Nayak. Sanjay Dutt plays a very similar role to Khal Nayak, but not as good. Don't get me wrong, because he actually does the best acting. Amitabh Bachchan probably was bored so he chose a wacky film to make and prove that he doesn't rely on the movie; the movie relies on him. Did he succeed? I Guess. Ajay Devgan is okay, but then again he looses his place in the movie. Another let down was the climax. Aishwarya Rai tries hard to save it, with all the actors listening to the dumb script, but it wasn't enough. One thing for sure is that every time I hear a song, I think of Aishwarya Rai in the music video. The songs are passable, but the music videos have a affect on you. Aishwarya Rai looks nice especially in Main Sohni Tu Mahiwal, dances nicely in O Sapno Ke Saudagar, and is natural in Dulhe Raja. So is the movie worth watching? Only if you are a fan of Aishwarya Rai and Sanjay Dutt. Watch it if you wish you can see a movie where you only see Aishwarya Rai dance and look nice.
