Dil, Bollywood Movies Dvd

if I had known this had been a melodrama and not a "corny 80s romantic comedy" as one reviewer described it, I would have been up for the long, long, ride full of typical Bollywood plot features. This movie was at times ridiculous, frustrating, and unsettling. NOT a feel good romantic comedy. - user's daughter, long time bollywood fan. . . but not of this one.

Magical love story on the order of those love stories I love from Hrithrik Roshan. Sacrifical love story far above other love stories I have seen from Bollywood. Aamir Khan is magical!

Okay, it's corny. It's also addictive. The music and dancing is wonderful, and it's a treat to see a young Aamir and a young Madhuri together...they are both so beautiful and believable. The plot goes from silly to serious, way over the top, but if you are a fan, you won't get tired of watching it.

love is an eternal theme

One of the finest hindi/indian movies of 1990s , loved it as a teenager and still love it everyday

I SO ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH.

I first discover both the amazing talent of Aamir Khan and the appeal of Bollywood films when I first saw "Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India" which is a fantastic film from 2003. And then, it wasn't long before a saw a song video of the dance talent and beauty of Madhuri Dixit from the film "Sailaab" from 1990. The song was call "Humko Aaj Kal Hai".I bought "Dil" almost right away when I knew these two beautiful people were together in the same film. I started to hang around Indian video stores alot as I started to learn more about Bollywood, and I have discovered so many beautiful Bollywood actresses. Before I knew it, I was watching Bollywood films and/or song/video collections from Bollywood nearly every day for many years.This film isn't in the best for sound or video quality, so I had to learn to look passed that and enjoy the beautiful people and to tolerate having to read English sub-titles, and I had to allow myself to get totally engrossed into a story that, in many cases, is nearly three hours long.But, as this story goes, Raja (Aamir Khan) lives a poor lifestyle along with his dad, Hazari Prasad (Anapam Kher) and mom. He attends college where he has several run-ins with wealthy fellow-collegian, Madhu Mehra (Madhuri Dixit). Matters escalate to such an extent that she accuses him of sexually molesting her. When his dad comes to know, he decides to seize this chance to get rich quickly, masquerades as a wealthy businessman, approaches Mr. Mehra, and arranges for their children to get married. Murphy's law prevails at the time of the engagement - changing everyone's lives forever.Hazari Prasad is a waste-material vendor, who lives with his young son, Raja, who studies at a Prestigious College and his wife. Hazari is a miser who values money the most and always had big dreams of getting his son married to a rich-man daughter; so that he can demand huge sums of money as dowry. His encounters lead him to meet up with wealthy Mr. Mehra; and he decides to masquerade as a wealthy industrialist to fool Mehra, luck favors him and he does succeed in his endeavor, and the engagement of Raja and Madhu is set. But Raja had many upping at the college with Madhu until she accuse him of sexually molesting her, an angry Raja carried off Madhu to make her realize what she had done to him and both end up falling in love and the engagement is celebrated with pomp and ceremony only to break off when Mehra exposes Hazari, publicly humiliates him and cancel the engagement. It is at this point Hazari and Mehra will realize how they will have to pay a heavy price for there children's happiness.With all the flaws this DVD has, it is still a worthy story. And I have about a hundred Bollywood DVD's, and about 25 Bollywood Blu-ray (which look and sound phenomenal! And I have a personal love for over 40 different Bollywood actresses. I keep an eye out for new blu-ray releases of Bollywood films with a hope that some of my older DVD favorites can be upgraded in quality.

excellent

Ich habe folgende Filme mit Aamir Khan gesehen:1. Lagaan *****2. Fanaa *****3. Mann *****4. The Rising *****5. Rang de Basanti *****6. Akele Hum Akele Tum *****und eben "Dil",wobei "Dil" hier nur 3 *** bekommt aus folgenden Gründen:Ich sage nicht das der Film schlecht ist!Aamir und Madhuri Dixit(die ich fast nicht erkannt hätte, weil sie noch sehrjung ist & nichts mehr mit der Frau gemeinsam hatdie sie heute ist)spielen ihre Rollen recht gut.Wer mich stört ist Anupam Kher denn der muß einewiderliche Rolle spielen und sieht auch noch schrecklich aus!Die Story ist am Anfang jetzt auch nicht so der "Reißer"denn Aamir & Madhuri müßen sich gegenseitig massiveund auch sehr derbe Streiche spielen, die fast ineiner Vergewaltigung enden, bis sie merken dassie sich lieben.(Wobei ich mir einmal mehr überlegen würde,ob ich mich in einen Mann verliebe, der mir solcheAngst gemacht hat und so zugesetzt hat...)Schon seltsam für eine Liebesgeschichte finde ich.Bis der Film in die richtige Richtung geht vergeht dadoch schon fast ne Stunde!Aber dann widersetzen sie sich gegen alle die etwas gegendie Verbindung haben und es wird doch noch romantisch undzum Teil dramatisch!Ich rate dazu sich den Film erst mal auszuleihen,denn wennich ehrlich bin trifft er nicht Jedermann's Geschmack!Aamir überzeugt mich hier nur mit seiner Entschlossenheit,seinem Mut und der Ehrlichkeit die er ausstrahltIch finde aber auch das "DIl" nichts für Bollywood Einsteigerist,sondern eher für hartgesottene Bollywoodfans, die sichschon länger mit diversen Bollywood Filmen befassen!Alles in allem ist "Dil" nicht schlecht, wenn auchetwas gewöhnungsbedürftig!Wer bessere Filme mit Aamir sehen will, dem empfehle ichdann doch eher die weiter oben aufgeführten Filme dieich mit 5 Sternen bewertet habe.Viel spaß beim "eigene-Meinung-bilden!;-)

I watched it many times. Now I will say out of all the movies this has got to be in one of my top ten! If you haven't watched this movie, trust me you will enjoy this very much so. Great I can't say enough about it.

Blockbuster 1990
