DDLJ (1995) - Page 2

This movie is so wildly overrated in my opinion that I am surprised to think about it being ranked among the best Bollywood productions. This is solely due to the fact that it was a commercial hit. If the movie had been a flop, it wouldn't have been regarded as such a great thing because it doesn't contain anything unique. From a content standpoint, it has nothing new to offer; it was only the buzz that made it a good runner.

I just love everything about this movie. SRK-Kajol chemistry, all the characters were perfectly casted and the movie was strangely grounded in it's essence.

The songs and music welded beautifully with the movie.

The story is whatever but what works is their incredible chemistry. Kajol was magical.

I like this movie just for its fun element....otherwise it is a mixed bag for me...

I will never in a million years understand the thinking that a father can marry his daughter to some unknown person living in an Indian village....when she was raised in UK....I mean how did he expect her to adjust in an unknown family, unknown surroundings?? I have a daughter born and raised in USA....I can't even imagine marrying her off to someone she has never seen...give up her life style, her friends, her familiar surrounding.....it doesn't matter if I promised someone and its my best friend's son....

The thing I like is that Raj wanted to marry Simran with her family's consent....he tried to woo her family as well(the way he did it was wrong but his heart was in the right place). I think one of the reasons it worked because we desi people don't marry our spouse...we marry their whole family..😆

There are other things that were illogical or I didn't like the idea behind them...but the above two are my main points....but if u keep the serious things aside..its a fun movie to watch.

I am yet to see any girl (or boy for that matter) born and raised in UK/USA who speak as fluent Hindi as they do in movies 😆Forget about singing early morning Aarti when your parents aren't even awake 🤣
