Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai
(translates as "it's my friend's wedding")
2002
3/5 stars
Sanjay (Uday Chopra) and Anjali (Tulip Joshi, credited as Sanjana) have been best friends for twenty years. When Anjali returns from a trip to America and announces that she is engaged to an American doctor (Rohit, played by Jimmy Sheirgill), Sanjay is stunned. After his friend and flatmate, Ria (Bipasha Basu), awakens him to the fact that he is in love with Anjali, he determines to stop the wedding.
The movie has a predictable and light plot, with nice cinematography and average music. Chopra and Sheirgill, while not fully lead material, are above average in this film, and have good chemistry together. Sadly, neither had any with Joshi. She is the weakest link in the movie, giving an unconvincing and unnatural performance, unlike Basu's generally strong one. Overall, it's forgettable and I wouldn't particularly recommend it, especially to those new to the Indian Cinema experience.
