Thereon the story is about them meeting and then separating again.
PERFORMANCES: Shahid Kapoor is marvelous in the film. The film rests on his shoulders and he does a wonderful job. Sonam Kapoor is decent too and is looking very pretty. Supriya Patak was also good in her role and all others characters have also played their roles well... The debut director Pankaj has done well but the script is weak and the climax is not so good, he should taken more care about the script but overall he has done a good job. Background music is appreciable.
The movie good and enjoyable in the first half but the fails to continue the same feel in the second half.

- Week Script
FINAL WORD: The film is a simple romantic movie, the first half is nice and leaves a mark but the second half is not so good and the climax is bad.. overall the film is a one time watch and film is a feel good movie.............
