    This movie was very different than I expected. When they were talking about three loves in one lifetime, etc, etc, I thought they were really talking about love. That is the mindset I went in with.

    *SPOILER ALERT*
    Unfortunately, it quickly becomes clear that Raj is a comple... read morete jerk. He uses and abuses women in quick succession, makes them love him, then leaves them (sometimes at the alter), after getting what he wants from them, until meeting a woman who knows his ways, knows his past, and has absolutely no intention of marrying. Then he proposes to her, she refuses, and he vows to fix his past. He tracks down his past lovers and tries to right the wrong he's done.

    There were things I really liked about the movie. It has lots of singing. It has a good plot, and very, very good dialogue.

    Things I didn't like about the movie: Raj is not in any way attractive. I fail to see how he gets so much play in the movie. His psychobabble gets women from his past to forgive him too easily...I don't think it would be that easy. Mahi always looks like she's been crying, even when she's supposed to be happy in the movie.

    Not a five star movie by any stretch, but definitely worth seeing.

Two and a half hours of this will try anyone's patience, so stave off the boredom by speculating about Kapoor and Padukone's off-screen romance; it looks like all that angsting paid off. Full Review

Bachna Ae Haseeno grows more serious and interesting as it contemplates the various permutations of romance in a culture with rapidly changing sexual mores. Full Review

Maitland McDonagh, TV Guide's Movie Guide

Siddarth Annan's light romantic comedy takes an abrupt, 11th-hour turn for the melodramatic that imbues it with unexpected resonance without seeming completely contrived. Full Review
