Trivia

Abhay Deol stated , "I went through some auditions where Imtiaz Ali (director of Socha Na Tha) selected me. At that time, he was in touch with another producer. That producer backed out. When I told Sunny, he wanted to meet the director and hear the script. Sunny liked it. And Vijeta Films took it up from there." After Socha Na Tha, Imtiaz was to make Jab We Met with Bobby Deol and Bhumika Chawla and Highway with Sunny Deol and Preity Zinta.

User Reviews

An Entertaining Movie

I thought this movie was going to be a typical, romantic cliché. But i was extremely wrong. Sure this movie's plot wasn't unusual but it is a romantic flick, and it has quality and plot twists, and most importantly, entertainment; and at the end of the day that's all that matters. It is a love story so there is no need to over analyze the movie. Camera angles weren't too great and neither were the songs, but the script was good and comedic (and i'm very picky when it comes to humour). The acting was fairly good. Although there weren't any really dramatic scenes, Abhay Deol and Ayesha Takia were very convincing in their roles, and best of all, no overacting which we see in most bollywood movies. I hope Deol and Takia are very successful in their acting careers.
