A film that begins as a raunchy Bollywood sex farce and evolves into a gritty psychological thriller, Sunjay S. Zaveri's Fun. . . Can Be Dangerous Sometimes (2005) opens with a trio of thrill-seeking, ennui-ridden housewives plotting and scheming to indulge in a torrid game of "husband swapping" on a beach vacation. Unsurprisingly, the husbands each concur; one, Aryan (Siddarth Koirala), falls in love with a girl named Megha (Henna Rehman) whom he saves from drowning. He fails to realize, however, that she's married to the wealthy tycoon Raj (Aryan Vaid) - albeit grossly unhappily. When the couples return to the city, horrid violence begins to plague Raj and Megha - Raj survives numerous attacks on his life, and Megha turns up dead. Naturally, Aryan is the foremost suspect - though it remains unclear if he is guilty, or if someone else bears responsibility. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Add Koi... Mil Gaya to Queue 
A scientist (director Rakesh Roshan) invents a computer to send sounds into outer space. Using the sound "Aum," he makes contact with an alien life form, but his fellow scientists laugh at his claims. Despondent, he drives home with his wife (Rekha). A spaceship interrupts their journey, and causes the excited Sanjay to crash. He is killed and his unborn child is injured in the accident. Rohit (Bollywood heartthrob Hrithik Roshan) grows up brain-damaged. He's stuck in a class with much younger kids and longs to advance academically, but he continually flunks. On top of that, he and his young friends are frequently bullied by Raj (Rajat Bedi) and his gang of thugs. Then Nisha (Preity Zinta), a beautiful young woman, moves to town. After a couple of comic misunderstandings, Nisha takes an interest in Rohit. Rohit asks Nisha to teach him computers, and they dig up his father's old device, inadvertently sending another message into space. Soon, another ship arrives, and this time, a funny little blue alien is left behind. Rohit takes the little one in, and soon finds himself being magically healed. Suddenly, he can see without his glasses, and soon he develops a quick mind and superhuman strength. Not only that -- he can dance. So he and his friends call the alien "Jadoo." Raj grows jealous of all the time Nisha is spending with Rohit. He finds that now Rohit is strong enough to defend himself. But the authorities are searching for Jadoo, and Rohit is determined to keep his little friend safe, no matter what the cost. Director Rakesh Roshan last directed his son, Hrithik, in Kaho Naa...Pyaar Hai, the film that made him a star. The big-budget Koi...Mil Gaya was promoted as the first science fiction film to come out of Bollywood. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi

In this Bollywood action opus (complete with several song and dance numbers), a world-wide tribunal of master criminals names Devraj (Akshay Kumar) as the new International Khiladi, or Crime Boss of the World. Devraj doesn't get much of a chance to enjoy his new status before a well-known police informant (Vivek) is found dead, and Devraj is considered the prime suspect by Inspector Amit (Rajat Bedi). The police also discover that Payal (Twinkle Khanna), a reporter, has been raped and beaten, and lies close to death in her apartment. Eager to interview the notorious Devraj, the plucky journalist began following the notorious outlaw, and in their many brief meetings along the way, Payal finds herself falling in love with him. Devraj also developed strong feelings for Payal, but when he discovered that she was also working with the police -- and a close friend of the informer -- her life with the Khiladi moved from risky to potentially deadly. International Khiladi proved to be a box-office success for Akshay Kumar, a major star in his native India. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Bollywood director Raj N. Sippy's police procedural thriller Case No. 2001 follows two cops - a veteran (Jackie Shroff) and a risk-loving neophyte (Rajat Bedi) - as they attempt to solve an enigmatic series of homicides. The serial killer in question sports an m.o. that involves leaving the number "2001" at the scene of each slaying. As he proceeds to terrorize the urban landscape, the city virtually explodes with tension; to pin him down, the partnered officers courageously step into the seedy underworld and routinely confront the most loathsome criminals in town. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
