(translates as "I am crazy about Prem")
2003
4/5 stars
Sanjana (Kareena Kapoor) falls deeply in reciprocated love with Prem (Hrithik Roshan), a wealthy NRI and the choice of her parents. Every one is ecstatic over the match until another Prem (Abhishek Bachchan) arrives and also falls in love with Sanjana. He is even more eligible, and he and Sanjana have much in common. Sanjana's mother (Himani Shivpuri) pushes for this match, instead. As in any love triangle, someone must come away hurt.
The plot is predictable, which doesn't lessen the enjoyment, but the resolution lacked the depth of emotion that it should have had. Kapoor was vivacious and acted her part well. Roshan's Prem was overly enthusiastic and outgoing, and that made it hard to warm to him at first; I don't know if this was Roshan overacting, or the fault of the script. Bachchan played his gentle Prem well, and drew the audience to him. The musical numbers were good, with one being particularly memorable. The scenery was lovely, giving an excellent backdrop to the film. Overall, it's a enjoyable time pass, though weak in parts.
This cast also includes Johnny Lever, Rema Lagoo, and Pankaj Kapur.
This movie is free with Amazon Prime.
