Main Aur Mrs Khanna

Main Aur Mrs Khanna
(translates as "Me and Mrs. Khanna")
2009
4/5 stars

Loving couple Samir (Salman Khan) and Raina (Kareena Kapoor) experiences marital troubles when Samir looses his job.  They decide to move from Melbourne to Singapore where Samir hopes to restart his career.  Certain things happen, and as a result Raina remains behind in Melbourne, with Samir promising to return for her.  She takes a job and makes new friends, one of which, Akash (Sohail Khan) falls in love with her. With the help of his friend Arsh (Yash Tonk), Akash sets about to woo her and discredit Samir.

This romance has a good, if predictable, plot that nicely combines humor with drama. The songs are good, some especially so.  Kapoor is sometimes stiff, but Sohail Khan has good energy and gives a good performance.  Salman Khan's role is brief and two-dimensional, and he doesn't give much emotion to it.  On the whole, while it's not an exceptional film, it gives good entertainment.

Special appearances by Preity Zinta and Deepika Padukone.
