Mansoor Khan is known for giving us quality cinema, remember Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar(remake of Breaking Away), Akele Hum Akele Tum(remake of Kramer vs Kramer) and finally Josh a remake of West Side Story The film is the first film not to star his cousin Aamir Khan, in fact Aamir was offered the role played by Sharad Kapoor but he felt his character was overshadowed by Srk. The film took 4 years to complete, but did well at the B.O. The film is set in Goa, my hometown, where 2 gangs Eagle and Bichhoo reside(something I have never heard about,lol) anywayz Srk is the boss of Eagle Gang which comprises of christians while Bichoo gang are the hindus from outside of Goa. The film is set in 1980s, there is also a subplot of Alberto Vasco on whom the village was named, which however is not true, of course we never except realism in Hindi films and that too when stories are set in Goa. The film starts off with a clash between 2 gangs which are quite entertaining, Srk- Aishwarya who play twins have some good scenes, even scenes between Sharad Kapoor and Chandrachur Singh are well handled Mansoor gives most characters equal space and thats laudable. Chandrachur-Aish love story is also well handled, while Srk-Priya Gill portions do they their moments. The clash at the interval is fab, while the second half too starts well but things stagnate when Chandrachur comes to know a secret of Srk and Aish, things get stretched, also the revelation is very half baked, the climax too seems hurried
Direction is good, the director and writers do a great job handling the film Music is good by Anu Malik, Sailaro is a fun song, Hai Mera Dil and Haare Haare are good too, Apun Bola sung by Srk is fun, Mere Khyalon Ki Malika is good too, In this film Abhijeet who was normally Srk's voice didn't sing at all for him.
Shahrukh Khan played a tapori earlier in Ram Jaane but overdid it, here he does a superb job, he is in control and does a great job Aishwarya Rai who tanned her role does a good job too, though at times she prances too much Chandrachur Singh is good in his role, Sharad Kapoor does a superb job, he plays Prakash superbly, sadly his career didn't really move much even after this film. Sushant Singh is good, Vivek Vaswani is okay, Priya Gill is good too Sharat Saxena is good, rest are all okay
