To be fair enough, I'd give credit to the film's theme and treatment more for its success than only its stars (though Salman's MPK also did really well in whatever overseas territories it was released).

The traditional Indian values, ethnicity and culture made people lap it up. Old Indians got nostalgic while the young were fascinated. Indians abroad also used HAHK to make their kids connect to Indian culture and values.

Even the servant and pet are like family in this film. It's all happy, dream-like setting with ideal Indian values.

Overseas audience connected with their roots through HAHK I believe.


What if same kind of film releases now with Salman Khan and a known female actress with same supporting cast? I meant what will be the verdict?

Bollywood needs more of this genre. Even Hollywood had more family orientated recently

You always give credit to theme only... chahe woh 3I ho ya HAHK... how come other movies with same themes couldn't make big in which there were no KHANS?

I agree that HAHK inspired KJO and Adi but it doesn't mean that they're movies are a copy of HAHK.
I mean where is DDLJ and where is HAHK!(Both were awesome though)

As in..story wise. HAHK was more based on family values whereas DDLJ was a pure love story.
And as I said, both were awesome.
