The story is very simple about a love between a 60-year old man and an 18-year old girl but was told in a very stylish format. The aqua blue cinematography was excellent that really did suited the mood for the film and it's similar to Zinda. Jiah Khan's acting was quite good for her first film. I really liked her voice and it was a good idea that she had to speak a lot of English throughout the whole film because she was from Australia and it made her look foreign. Amitabh Bachchan is simply the best actor in Bollywood and he took care of the whole film. Nishabd was so much based on reality and it's true that most woman like older men & older men like younger women although there was a 42-year age difference between them. The best thing about the movie is that they didn't fall in love on first sight. Vijay (Amitabh) took Jiah out because his daughter was injured and couldn't make it. They both had a good time and slowly they fell in love which was much more sensible. The best scene is when Jiah was soaking herself with the water hose & Vijay was taking pictures of her. Music is also good although there are only two songs and they are not in the film but there are CDs & tapes. Rozana is a terrific song & Take light is also good but Rozana is one of the best songs of 2007.
