I personally never felt he loved either one of them. LOL. I think his "so-called pyaar" was ONLY and ONLY look based. I understand that its important to be physically attracted to a person to be in love or relationship or all that "idhar-udhar ke baatein". But I don't think this "pyaar" is only and solely limited to just looks as shown in KKHH. Jab Tina sundar laagi, usse pyaar ho gaya aur jab Anjali sundar lagi then history repeats. I didn't like Rahul's character. He was so easily seduced. When I saw KKHH as a kid,
I was so enraged that Anjali didn't end up with Aman. Anyways, my rant is over now.LOL
That makes two of us. I still hold the same today in fact. Rahul does not come across as a nice guy at all. If anything he is obnoxious and self contradictory. "Maa hum ek bhar jeete hain, ek bhar mar te hain, shaadi ek bhar hoti hain or Pyar bhi."...LOL JK unless the chick is hot then the motto gos flying out of the window.
Leaving the whole "was he, wasn't he always in love with Anjali" aside what grates me is the view that in order to be loved (even by your supposedly best friend) you need to look conventional which equates with sexy sari's, long luscious hair and performing random classical dance numbers in front of children who look so bored out of their mind.
As much as I enjoyed this movie as a kid, I think every eight year old wanted mini Anjali as their bestie, but I cannot help but cringe at the message that comes across.
As to Aman. In my eyes he should have been 'the guy.' Not only did he come across as the better son in law, but clearly if he's been pining for years then he too like Anjali understands what it is like to love someone forever. At the end of the day it was Anjali's choice, and more power to her for making the decision either way but yes, overall I can't help but say, I disagreed with her.
