I don't know about the Tamil version, but the Hindi version SUCKS

This is probably the top five worst movies I have seen. The movies wants to be all visually pleasing yet couldn't put in a proper story. After all, a movie is pleasing with a good story. I don't know what the ending was trying to prove but it became the worst ending I have seen in Bollywood. I am surprised the Tamil version did very well (and this movie was sent to the Oscars), because I was disappointed with the Hindi version. This movie has the worst acting ever. Prashanth is completely wooden and looks more like Aishwarya's little brother rather than her boyfriend. Aishwarya Rai tries hard to be good, but she is also wooden. She may look beautiful, but she needed to shape up (which she did in HDDCS). The rest of the cast needed to go back to acting school because I felt that they were hit on the head before they started this movie and lost their talents. Besides Aishwarya's beauty, I gave this movie another point for its music. My favorite was Kehta Hai Mera Dil (My Heart Says) which has not one, but TWO Aishwarya Rai. It had amazing dancing, and Aishwarya looked amazing. Hai Rabba and Ajooba were also nice songs, but were overdone in picturization. I won't even bother talking about the rest of the songs. The Hindi version is not worth a watch at all, but maybe go for the Tamil one.
