Love and dreams follow two starry-eyed actors across three decades and two incarnations in this splashy Hindi musical. It's the early '70s, and Om Prakash Makhija (Shah Rukh Khan) is a young would-be actor who has been playing bit parts in Bollywood musicals while looking for his big break. Om's ambition is to become a film star and win the heart of beautiful screen siren Shantipriya (Deepika Padukone), and his pal Pappu (Shreyas Talpade) and his mother, Bela (Kirron Kher), both encourage him not to give up on his dreams. One day, Om meets Shantipriya on a movie set, and he feels as if destiny is finally smiling on him, but when he overhears her having an argument with studio chief Mukesh Mehra (Arjun Rampal), Om senses things are not as they should be. Before Om can decide what to make of his misgivings, the studio burns to the ground, claiming the lives of Om and Shantipriya. Thirty years later, a bit of Om's spirit seems to live on in Om Kapoor (also played by Shah Rukh Khan), a popular film actor with a large ego and a fear of flame who was born the day the old studio burned down. Despite his fame, Om is lonely, at least until he meets Sandhya (also played by Deepika Padukone), a shy but eager would-be actress looking for her chance to become a star. Om Shanti Om was directed and co-written by Farah Khan, who was a top choreographer in the Indian film industry before moving up to the director's chair, and features guest spots from a number of Bollywood's greatest stars, a few appearing in the form of digital recreations taken from films of the '70s. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Two friends fight over a woman who isn't especially interested in either of them in this musical comedy from India. Samir (Salman Khan) is a good-looking lifeguard who could have his pick of any girl on the beach; however, he only has eyes for Rani (Priyanka Chopra), a beautiful woman who lives in the same apartment building as him. Rami is trying to establish herself as a designer, and her romance takes a back seat to her career, at least for now. This doesn't stop Samir from trying to win her heart, but he soon discovers he has competition -- his friend and roommate, Sunny (Akshay Kumar), has also fallen for Rami and is doing his darndest to steal her out from under his buddy. Both men have to contend not only with a resistant woman but her eccentric father (Amrish Puri), who doesn't believe that any man is good enough for his daughter. A major box-office success in India, Mujhse Shaadi Karogi also fared well in Great Britain, opening as the eighth top-grossing film of the week in its first seven days. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Translated into English as "Something is Happening," this Hindi-language Bollywood film tells the story of two close friends at college, male Rahul (Shahrukh Khan) and tomboy-ish female Anjali (Kajol). Seemingly proving the age old theory that men and women can never be platonic friends without complications, Anjali falls in love with Rahul, without his knowledge. Rahul then tells the poor girl that he's fallen for Tina (Rani Mukherji), and Anjali flees the college. The tale then cuts to a point in time years later, after Tina has unexpectedly died, leaving Rahul as a single parent, free to meet Anjali again. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
