Kuch Naa Kaho

Kuch Naa Kaho
(translates as "don't say anything")
2003
4/5 stars

I think that the less one knows about this film, the better the viewing experience.  So, in short: Namrata (Aishwarya Rai), an abandoned wife, finds another chance at love with Raj (Abhishek Bachchan) but her past will make happiness impossible.

Cast also incudes Arbaaz Khan, Parth Dave, Satish Shah, Suhasini Mulay, Jaspal Bhatti, and Himani Shivpuri, among others.

This is an enjoyable romantic-comedy-drama, with a mostly well-written plot.  The music is average and less, with the exception of the title song.  Choreography is simplistic, due, I'm sure, to the fact that Bachchan is not the best dancer.  Rai is vivacious, sassy, and credible.  Bachchan is charming, funny, and believable.  Arbaaz Khan, in his negative role, is excellent.  Child actor Parth Dave is convincing, as well, and manages important scenes professionally.  The only problem with this film is that the ending is too quick and neat, lessening the impact of the overall drama. It's still one I would recommend, and will probably re-watch.
