1999
5/5 stars
Nandini (Aishwayra Rai) is the daughter of a renown singer, Pandit (Vikram Gohkale), who takes Sameer (Salman Khan) to be a pupil. Nandini and Sameer secretly fall in love. As her family doesn't know, they betroth her to another man, Vanraj. When Pandit learns of the love between his daughter and student, he sends Sameer away and Nandini is married to Vanraj (Ajay Devgan). Vanraj learns of her love for Sameer, and, as is inevitable with a love triangle, heartbreak happens.
Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam begins as a romantic-comedy, light-hearted and fun, with a sweetly developing romance. About half way through, it turns into a drama that, quite frankly, had me ugly-crying by the end. While a love triangle is not a new plot, this one was well written and deep.
Aishwayra Rai is a terrific actress and acted her part magnificently. Both Salman Kahn and Ajay Devgan were excellent as well, each one giving depth to his character. The music and choreography was memorable, and the cinematography breath-taking. This is a superb, emotional romance that is all around spectacular. I highly recommend it.
