7/10
A Good Film!
31 August 2011
'Kal Ho Naa Ho' is A Good Film, that catches your attention. While The First-Hour is funny & lively, the Second-Hour, though dragging, is emotionally engaging. Also, the performances, are quite good!

'Kal Ho Naa Ho' Synopsis: Life of a very serious girl Naina, changes on the arrival of her new neighbor, Aman, who teaches her a new way to live.

The film works in most times and manages some memorable moments, that stay with you even after the film has ended. But, the second-hour is definitely dragging and needed to be trimmed. The excessive running time, does act as a speed breaker. Nikhil Advani's Direction is good. The Screenplay by Niranjan Iyengar & Karan Johar, is impressive. Cinematography is striking. Music by Shankar-Eshaan-Loy, is Excellent. Editing is fairly nice.

Performance-Wise: Shahrukh does well, but it's Saif Ali Khan, who undoubtedly owns the film. He delivers a wonderful performance, that is truly worth immense praise. Preity Zinta does very well, especially in the emotional scenes. Jaya Bachchan is efficient. Rajpal Yadav appears in a hilarious cameo. Satish Shah, Ketaki Dave & Sulbha Arya are superb. Reema Lagoo, Sushma Seth, Lilette Dubey & Delnaaz Paul, are effective. Sonali Bendre & Sanjay Kapoor appear in a brief roles.

On the whole, A Good film, that is definitely worth a watch. Thumbs Up!
