Rab ne bana di jodi

Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma


The central plot of this movie was quite clever and could have been done so much better than it was. It fell flat though in my opinion. SRK was a shy, retiring bachelor who weds a lovely vibrant woman after a tragedy occurs in her family. SRK finds his alter ego when he decides to join a dance class that his wife has joined, disguised as a cavalier and womanizing, outgoing personality, so she won't recognize him. He knows that in real life his wife will never love him because of her tragic past, so he becomes this character in order to spend time with her and try to get her to open up to love again.
SRK as the husband is touching and sweet. However, his other character is a bit obnoxious and ill portrayed. Most of the movie was comedy centered but it mostly missed the mark for me. Fun and lighthearted but not very memorable.

  1. You KNOW I'm going to have to see this movie some time, but I'll wait until a time that I just need some light entertainment and not a good cry.

    Thank you for the review. LofC!
