Rating: - A review from an ABCD
I saw this movie in the theaters when it first came out in 1999. This is a typical "bigger than life" movie that places more emphasis on color and music than plot and acting. (I don't like Salman Khan - the jilted lover.) I enjoyed watching it because of the dances and scenery. I'm not going to bore you with plot details... there are several (hundred) places to find that!
People who are angry or annoyed with "Italian" scenes taking place in Budapest should remember one thing. Movie ... Read More
Rating:  - Like broadway, only from india
Great movie with really nice music and dance. Scenes are beauitful and costumes are stunning. Who ever thought passing wind was universally Funny.
Rating: - A Bollywood film that I would like to recommend
If you like Aishwarya Rai because you already saw "Bride and Prejudice" and "The Mistress of Spices", then check out some of her famous Bollywood films directly from India.
"Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam" (Straight From the Heart) is a very beautiful Hindi film which touches on a very common theme about the warped "arranged marriage concept" and the misery it causes when two people fall in love.

Rating:  - A huge disappointment
I have a shelf full of Hindi romances, and this is the only one I could not sit through to the end. The acting is wooden, the music is mediocre and the plot is the worst masala of melodramatic plot twists I have ever seen. Everything is just stiff and unimaginative, in every aspect.
I've seen Ash act well in other films, so let's blame the director for this mess. (I've never seen Salman in anything I liked, so we'll blame him for that.)
There are so many other great Hindi romance films ... Read More
Rating: - Loved it !
I loved watching this film. It is a little long, but the beautiful scenery and wonerful music make the time fly by. The acting and performances are superior and Ajay Devgan is awesome in this role. Aishwarya is picture perfect in this film and the reference to "Miss World" was very funny. The costuming and music video cut-aways were great as well.
