2011
4/5 stars
Bodyguard Lovely Singh (Salman Khan) has been assigned to college student, Divya (Kareena Kapoor). She is frustrated by having him tag along and comes up with a plan to distract him: by giving him a secret admirer. Divya's plan works well, and Lovely falls for the mysterious Chhaya of the phone calls, but Divya never foresaw the results of her actions.
This film (a remake of the 2010 Malayalam movie of the same name) is a mix of action, romance, and drama. Khan's character is a too-serious, over-conscientious one, and the movie pokes fun of itself through him in a thoroughly funny way. The fight scenes are unbelievable, but no less enjoyable for that. The musical scenes, costumes and film work are average. The story, though, becomes entirely engrossing, and throws a few surprises. Overall, I recommend it, as long as the viewer knows not to take it too seriously.
One a personal note: I loved this movie! It's one I'll watch again and again.
