Review of Cheeni Kum (2007) by Molyneau D — 01 Oct 2007

Oh hands down DEFINITELY one of my all time faves right here! I don't know why ratings weren't as loving as I've been. The plot is typical, but done so well, it's as if you've never heard the tale of arranged marriage and age issues in relationships. Sexy snatches the show away with her quick wit written well beyond anything the audience could anticipate, and there's the humor the movie needed for the cheesier moments between Amitabh and Tabu. I read and heard about this, and didn't feel exactly drawn to it after watching Amitabh interviews in India news. But you would've laughed to see me asking folks to hush as I flew home on Air India and enjoyed every second during the in-flight movie!

I would love to own this one, now that Bollywood's had a remarkable confirmation about the sort of guy I would not consider in life!
