A soft-spoken and cynical workaholic doctor crosses paths with an outgoing and boisterous female singer in director Tanuja Chandra's alternately hilarious and moving meditation on the true nature of love, and the manner in which opposites always seem to attract. Dr. Suraj Rihan (Shiney Ahuja) is all work and no play, but when he meets the fun-loving Kria (Sushmita Sen) one night in the hospital, there's just no denying the pathologically friendly girl's infectiously joyous outlook on life. Her family is equally as colorful, too. Kria isn't the kind of girl to take "no" for an answer, so when she invites the shy doctor over to meet the whole gang, he reluctantly agrees. Suddenly transformed by such a lively group, Dr. Rihan soon finds himself falling deeply in love with the dynamic Kria. Though the feelings are indeed mutual, it isn't long before the transformed doctor and the lively singer find themselves faced with the biggest crisis either has ever encountered. Will their burgeoning love prove strong enough to keep the pair together even in their darkest hour and will the powerful bond that they have formed provide each with the strength and support needed to brave the coming storm? ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
