has anyone else noticed how similar both stories are?? the 'funny' intelligent but average girl falling in love with someone higher up and having a really good friend who loves her too...and ishaan getting engaged to a model is also very similar to bridget jones. and if the story is going this direction then i am going to like the end result :)

basically 'bridget jone's diary' is the story of a woman who works for a newspaper and likes her boss called daniel...and daniel also flirts with her. when they get together, he loses interest after getting what he wanted from her and goes back to flirting with other women and cheats on bridget with another girl 😡 after that, bridget gets a job presenting in tv for a news channel and she becomes very popular and loved by the audience, and she also becomes more self-confident. bridget also starts to get close to mark, the son of her parent's friends 😛
just when bridget and mark start to go further in the relationship, daniel starts to pursue bridget once again, and tries to win her back...
i think mahi way is going to go in the same direction. i know how the story of bridget jones ends but i wont post it, as it may become a spoiler for the readers coz im sure mahi way is going to end the same way 😳 if you want to find out more just rent the movie its such a nice story!!
sorry if this comparison has been made before, i had no idea!!

nice movie...hugh grant played daniel and colin firth, mark.

And bridget was played by renee zellweger.

And yes, the ending is totally unexpected and awesome.


PLOT

Bridget Jones is frustrated; in her early thirties, still single, and worried about her weight. She works in publicity at a book publishing company in London where her main focus is fantasizing about her boss Daniel Cleaver. At a Christmas party hosted by her parents, she meets Mark Darcy, the barrister son of her parents' friends. After their initial meeting, Mark thinks that Bridget is a fool, and Bridget thinks that he is arrogant and rude. On New Year's Day, she finally decides to turn it all around and starts her own diary, which covers all her attempts to stop smoking, lose weight, and catch her Mr. Right

.

Bridget and Daniel begin to flirt heavily at work, first over email. They eventually start dating, despite the fact that he is a notorious womanizer with a questionable personality, which Bridget is aware of, stating earlier in the film that he is an "alcoholic, workaholic, peeping-tom, megalomaniac, emotional f**kwit and a pervert". Bridget learns from Daniel that he and Mark have a history and as a result, hate each other. Daniel informs Bridget of their fallout, telling her that Mark broke their friendship by sleeping with his fiance.


Daniel's dubious character becomes clearer and clearer to Bridget, and eventually she breaks off their relationship when she catches him with another woman, a colleague of his, Lara, from work in New York. She finds a new job in television. In the meantime, she and Mark have a series of run-ins at a book launch, at a bed-and-breakfast, and at a mutual friend's dinner party. During the party, Mark (who has come to the dinner with his colleague, Natasha) privately confesses to Bridget that, despite Bridget's faults, he likes her just the way that she is. He later helps her to land a major interview for work. Bridget begins to develop feelings for Mark. Just as Bridget and Mark's mutual attraction for each other comes together at a birthday dinner party hosted by Bridget, Daniel comes back into the picture claiming Bridget's attention. Mark originally leaves the party, but comes back to face Daniel. Mark punches Daniel and the two fight, resulting in Daniel passing out. Bridget, still thinking that Daniel had been the wronged one, chastises Mark. Afterward, she tells Daniel that she doesn't want to be with him.


Bridget eventually learns the truth about Mark and Daniel's fallout, in which Daniel had seduced Mark's ex-wife when they were still married. At a dinner party the same day, Bridget confesses her feelings for Mark, only to find out that he and Natasha are both leaving to accept jobs in New York. Just as Bridget starts to embark on a trip to Paris with her friends to mend her broken heart, Mark returns to stay with Bridget.


As they're about to kiss for the first time, Bridget exits to her bedroom to change her undergarments, remarking that it is "an occasion for genuinely tiny knickers". While Bridget is changing, Mark spies her diary, in which she has written many insults about him. Bridget returns to find that he has left. Realising that he had read her diary and that she might potentially lose him again, Bridget runs outside after him in a thin coat and her undergarments. Unable to find him and disheartened, she is about to return home when Mark appears holding a new diary. It becomes apparent that the new diary was to be a gift from Mark to give their relationship a fresh start. They kiss in the snow-covered streets and the movie concludes.
