From the start I knew this film was going to be good but I was wrong. It was not just good but it was fantastic. Definitely Shahrukh, Kajol and Karan\'s best film together. It is defnitely a Do Not Miss type film.
Overrated

Overated film. I thought Shah Rukh typically overacted. Kajol was excellent though. Some of this story line is ridiculous....almost laughable but then I suppose it is Bollywood. Yes go and see it but dont believe the hype about how amazing this film is. Sorry all you guys who have raved on and on about how this is the best film ever!
Bollywood has finally reached Hollywood Class!
