Vivaah Movie Reviews

I saw Vivaah on first day with my wife and friends.Yesterday I sent other five members of my family to watch the film.Clearly,Vivaah is a complete family movie.

It touches your heart so deeply that you ought to cry while watching it.All my friends cried while watching it.Some of them cried even after the film was over.

What a fitting reply by Sooraj Barjatya to the very American Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna.Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna tells the audience to live life on one's terms.Vivaah teaches you to live life for others and sacrifice for other's happiness.Sooraj Barjatya teaches you small-small indian cultures and leaves a permanant mark on you till the end.I felt the film was slow till interval.Even after that it does not have pace for 20 odd minutes.But after that the film completely outperperforms and leaves your eyes moist.Once the film is over,you realise how important it was for sooraj Badjatya to keep things slow till interval.Actually he develops the film and the indian traditions,values within you till interval and wins the match completely in the climax.Climax itself is of around 45 minutes.The whole cast gives the best performance in the the difficult emotional scenes in the end.The scenes look so real that you become part of the whole film.

I wont give you the details of the climax.You shuold go and watch the film instead.Amrita Rao has given her bestpeformance till date.You develop tremendous respect for Amrita Rao after watching the movie.She showed real emotions throughout the movie.All other characters have also given excellent performances.Watch out Alok Natch while signing the document.

It was a difficult subject to direct for Sooraj Badjatya because you see so many family stories in Saas-Bahu serials.But he handles the subject so well.Music of the film is boring.But the movie certainly has more aseets than liabilities.

Go watch it!

VIVAAH- As the title suggests it is related to marriage. The director of the film wanted to show, what can happen in between the time from engagement to marriage. To some extent the director is to express that, But the presentation is not impressive. The film's pace is very slow, audience is not bound with the film. Because of slow pace the film becomes BORING. The role the characters perform are too idealistic. All the actors in the film have done there job perfectly. The excitement of marriage, shown by Shahid kapoor is good. In latter half the film gains some momentum, but still the film tests audience patience. This film will specially help Shahid to recognize him as a good actor. Amrita has also played her role nicely. Rest of them Aloknath who is habited to play these type of roles is OK. Amrita’s sister acting is good. Anupam kher is as usual perfect in his role.

because I love love -story and also for sooraj barjataya because he is known for making family film. amrita rao and alok nath are at their best ,anupam kher as usual treat to watch and shahid kapoor looking mature as a actor and his brother and sister in law in movie done fabrolous job.

i don't know whether movie click or not but I enjoyed the movie very much after long time after lage raho munnabhai. movie has preditable story even than one can't complaint about .music of the movie may be possible not become chartbuster but according to situation and love to listen.i recommed to those person who can't believe in the intitution of arrange marriage and influenced by western culture. i also recommed to those who love family drama. I think sooraj should make these type of movie because he has commend on these subject because his last movies also deal with same subject.

As I don't write many reviews, I will come straight to the point. This movie is a disaster. It lacks a decent story (actually it lacks a story altogether), is EXTREMELY slow paced and it is grossly unbelievable. It ranks up there with alltime bad movies like Kisna where you almost tear your hair out (or if you haven't spent too much money on the ticket, you simply walk out)

So now that we have these things cleared up, let us come to story (or the lack thereoff). The story is basically of a girl from a small town where they speak shudh hindi (Amrita Rao a whole lot of jal in this movie) getting engaged to a guy from a very rich business family in Delhi. It suppoedly tells the story between the engagement and the wedding.

It is a typical Rajshri movie where all characters are sugar sweet and there are no shades of grey in any character.

Now for the problems with the plot:

1. Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao meet once for 5 minutes and say yes to get married, despite the fact that Shahid is a really modern guy.

   
   




2. They fall in love because they are engaged, despite not having spent any time with each other.

   
   




3. The movie is painfully slow and the songs are pretty much all forced and seem to make the movie stretch even more.

   
   




4. The shudh hindi seems artificial. I am myself from a small town but they are not really like that. I mean comeon, who calls water jal at home?

   
   

Overall I did like Amrita Rao and Shahid Kapoor in the movie but the lack of story line and badly defined characters do them in.

The song mujhe haq hai seems to repeat over and over again. Just to give you an idea, by the end of the movie I was singing "Mujhe haq hai ki main is screen ko jala doon for screening such a pathetic movie."So guys and gals, if you love your hair and don't fancy tearing them out, avoid this movie.

In the age of Himesh Reshammiya's moaning and Koena Mitra and Co's stripping, this beautifully romantic film with gorgeous traditional songs has come as a breath of well needed fresh air.

Firstly, I have to say that the chemistry between the two leads is breathtaking. Shahid (Prem) and Amrita (Poonam) make a beautiful couple.

The film gets going with Poonam's chacha (Alok Nath) telling the audience about Poonam and how he has brought her up since her parents died when she was very young. He has always loved her as much (you do get the impression he loved her more) as his younger daughter Chhoti (Amrita Prakash). His wife (Seema Biswas) however, has always hated Poonam because she is much prettier than her own daughter.

The story moves on to Prem, a handsome young business man who dad (Anupam Kher) decides he should get married. A mutual friend suggests Poonam as a potential rishta and the two families meet.

On their very first meeting, Poonam and Prem seem made for each other. They agree to the wedding and get engaged.

What follows is an extremely romantic six months where Prem and Poonam get to know each other and fall deeply in love. I have to say, this part of the film is slightly too long but still makes an impact.

The wedding day arrives eventually but tragedy strikes and you are left wondering will the shaadi happen?

The last 40 or so minutes are the best part of the film, the twist in the tale makes for good cinema.

As you've probably suspected, this being a Rajshri film and all, the ending is happy, just in case you were worried!

The plus points of the movie are: the chemistry between Shahid and Amrita is wonderful, both leads especially Shahid put in excellent performances, some of the songs are wonderful, especially the gorgeous Mujhe Haq Hai and Milan Abhi Adha Adhura. The others are nice but forgettable.

Negatives include, the story is slightly longwinded, maybe a little too old fashioned in some places, they don't even hold hands until the middle of the movie!

All in all, its a really romantic, beautiful film with great performances, but be warned, if you're prone to crying (as I am) take a tissue!

I had no expectations from this movie and I should say that the movie for me is surprisingly good. I was a little disappointed after coming out of the theatre because of certain portions in the second half but overall I was happy and satisfied!

The story of the movie: Prem (Shahid Kapoor) is a handsome, eligible bachelor and son of a rich businessman Harishchandra (Anupam Kher). Prem gets a proposal for marriage from a simple family in Madhupur. The girl is Poonam (Amrita Rao). At first, Prem is reluctant but later agrees when his father persuades him. When Prem and Poonam meet, they fall in love in first sight. Slowly, they discover each other and their love grows. They get engaged and their marriage was scheduled to take place in 6 months. It is said that the period between marriage and engagement is the most beautiful, most romantic period for the soul mates. In this time period, Prem and Poonam enjoy and could not wait for these six months to get over. Six months fly by. It was time for the marriage for Prem and Poonam. Just when everything was fine, one incident changes everybody’s life.

Vivah scores mainly in the first half. The first half is beautiful. There are no dull moments in this half and it is quite enjoyable, quite romantic and quite touching. The second half too is not so bad. The first part of the second half is too good and brings a smile on our face. But the problem is with the last 45 minutes of the movie. In this 45 minute there is a big twist as all problems arise. This twist was totally unpredictable no doubt but in my opinion it was not needed. The director should have kept no sad moments in the entire movie. Though the movie would look strange after that, but whats the problem in that? Is it not possible?

Another reason why Vivah scores is that it is a complete family movie and such type of movie have not released of late.

Vivah has some beautiful moments, which would remain etched in the viewer’s memory. The beginning scene, where Alok Nath says that ‘how come some people can be so cruel to their daughters’ is too good. This dialogue is likeable because it is original and very true. The other scene, which needs special mention, is the scene when Shahid and Amrita meet for the first time and speak together. Shahid speaks up his entire life story in front of Amrita. It showed how Shahid didn’t wanted to hide anything from Amrita. In my opinion, this was the sweetest scene of the movie!

Shahid Kapoor is the winner this time! With each movie, he is getting better and with Vivah he has totally grown as an actor. In the entire movie, he does not disappoint even for a moment. Well done, Shahid!

Amrita Rao is next to Shahid here. She gets into the skin of her character and performs brilliantly this time. Really she is an actor to watch. After Main Hoon Naa, this was her next best performace!

Alok Nath as Krishna Kant again gets to play the role of a good old man. This role was not hard to play for Alok Nath as he had done similar roles many times before! But though, he has done a good. But I would like to see him in a negative role, at least once!

Seema Biswas as Rama (Amrita’s chachi) was okay but she was very different from what she has done before. Anupam Kher was nice. Amrita Prakash as Choti does a good job and looks very confident on screen. Samir Soni rocks this time! He does a great job and he has all the qualities necessary for being a successful actor! Lata Saberwal as Bhavna does a good job. Manoj Joshi (as Bhagatji), Dinesh Lamba (as Munimji) and Amey Pandya (as Rahul-Samir Soni’s son) were funny. Mohnish Behl in a special apperance does a fine job.

Sanjay Dhabade does a brilliant job as an art director. He has created the entire village of Madhupur in the film studio. Suprisingly, the viewer does not even come to know about it as he has does his job perfect and taken attention even to the minute details. For instance, he has shown tangled cable wires, spit-marks on walls etc to create a village-type of atmosphere! Excellent, isn’t it?

Aash Karan Atal’s dialogues are very touching and quite emotional. Ravindra Jain’s music in Vivah reminds you of the music of Hum Aapke Hai Koun. But though it is nice. Songs, which were really nice, are ‘Mujhe Haq Hai’, ‘Do Anjaane Ajnabi’, ‘Hamari Shaadi Mein’ and ‘Tere Dwaare Pe Aayi Baarat’.

Sooraj Barjatya’s direction is good. He has done a extremely fine job as a director.

Some of the nice scenes of the movie:

1. The beginning flashback scene

   
   




2. The scene where Shahid and Amrita meet for the first time

   
   




3. The scene where Shahid and Amrita’s family spend time at far-off village, Som Sarovar

   
   




4. The scene where Shahid explains his two meetings to Amrita on phone

   
   




5. The song ‘Hamari Shaadi Mein’

   
   

On the whole, Vivah is excellent and it scores because of performances, some excellent scenes and the first half. The twist in the second half was not needed and it made the movie length longer. But overall, the movie is too good and should be watched at least once. It is a movie, which is simple, nice and can be enjoyed by the whole family together. Its business would be very nice in the first two weeks. But after the release of Dhoom2 on November 24, its collections may fall down.

Amrita has done the impossible.

With one performance she has staked her claim as the best actress of the country.

Rani, Priety, Ash ... they all are left so far behind that it doesnt matter anymore.

Why such superlatives? Simply because sometimes a performace is good, sometimes its

brilliant, but Amrita's performance in Vivah is flawless.

There isnt a single fault in her expression, her dialogue dilevery or her body language.

The expericence of witnessing something so sublime is difficult to put into words.

You fall in love with her, the way she blushes, the way she coyly smiles and lowers her eyelashes, and also the way tears well up in her eyes as she fights to keep them in.

When she says "Jal" it feels so natural that you wonder why you have been calling it "Paani" all along.

The simple fact is that Amrita didnt play Poonam's character.

Poonam is Amrita. She may be modest enough to give the entire credit to Mr. Sooraj Barjatya

but the truth is that Amrita has more than justified Sooraj ji's faith in her.

He threw her a huge challange. And she takes it up and soars.

The audience reaction to the movie says it all.

They dont move, they dont talk or pass comments, they just let enter a world that is so

familiar that its almost a part of your own life.

I may have wept at times, because my eyes were swollen when I came out.

I remember laughing very often.

But what I do remember most definitely is feeling like im a fly on the wall of the house in Madhupur, watching the story unfold.

Sooraj ji tells the story with a simplicity that gently holds your hand and leads you to

the different situations, the sets dont seem like sets, they are so real, the characters dont

speak as they do in movies, they do as we have heard people speak in our homes.

There is nothing fake about the movie.

The elaborate and synthetic sets of a KJ movie begin to look so fake in comparision.

Every actor in the movie has excelled. Choti is a little sister that you probably have.Alok Nath

as Chachaji makes you want to touch his feet. Anupam Kher as Prem's father is a delight to watch. The actress who plays Poonam's Chachi is also brilliant as a tortured soul who cannot

rise above her jealousy for Poonam who is better looking than her own daughter. Even the child

actor doesnt irritate like most child actors do.

Plenty has been said about Sooraj Barjatya's abilities to extract the best work from his actors.

But still, its something that has to be seen to be believed.

Sooraj ji says that the movie doesnt have a plot, just moments and emotions. Well, he has been

keeping a secret. There is a mind blowing climax to the movie and its heartbreaking.

As for moments and emotions, they bind the story together.

Its a simple tale told with a lot of heart. Almost 3 hours pass away unnoticed, and when the movie ends you dont want to get up.

Lots of times you can tell that the cinematography is brilliant, or the editing or special effects.

With Vivah none of this seems to matter. You are too engrossed in the story to notice anything.

But in hindsight, the technical aspect is brilliant and everything gels together perfectly.

In a recent interview Karan Johar stated that Sooraj ji is his idol and mentor. Here Sooraj proves himself worth of such high praise. And I for one believe he is our best film maker as of now.

Lots of people may say that MPK or HAHK were better. Personally I think this is his best

movie till date and it will be a hard act to follow.

Sooraj mentioned that he had started writing he movie with the intention of casting a new pair.

But while scripting he felt that he needed a good actor to play Prem's part, so he roped in Shahid. And then when he came to the climax, he realized that he needed a brilliant actress to

pull this off, that is when he zeroed in on Amrita Rao.

Shahid is a revelation in the movie. He shows such tremendous growth as an actor that you

can't help but admire him. But there is more to it then meets the eye. Prem may have been conceived by Sooraj B, but only Shahid could have brought such innocence and conviction

to the character, partly I believe, because he really is a very honest and sincere person himself.

Shahid is very real as Prem, his decency is not contrived.

Which brings me back to Amrita Rao.

Its uncanny how she seems to have been born to play Poonam.

Looking back it seems like a natural progression of events were leading upto just this.

I cant help but believe that destiny has a large part in bringing Amrita to the right place at the

right time so that she can play this Rajshiri heroine and play her brilliantly.

She has always maintained a very clear stand on her no exposure and no compromises policy.

She is hearbreakingly beautiful, coy, intelligent and prefers to spend her free time with her family. She is very sensitive to her parent's feelings and mostly doesnt hanker for glory.

The "Karwa Chauth" scene in Ishk Vishk seems to be a prologue to her role in Vivah.

That was just a trailer of things to come. She mentions that Sooraj B noticed her in the Legend of Bhagat Singh and that lead to her getting this role. She has no negativity associated with

her and that helps in her portrayal of Poonam in Vivaah.

The simple fact is that Sooraj B depends on his leading lady to charm the audience. His last two movies didnt work because his leading actresses failed him.

But Amrita charms and how.

She hardly has 50 lines in the entire movie. But she didnt even need those. Her eyes do the talking. Her silences are so emotive, her face registers emotions perfectly and her fragile body has a presence that doesnt need exposure to attract.

She is spellbinding and I swear to you, everybody who watches her will fall in love.

Poonam is lovable because Amrita really is Poonam.

She doesnt play a character, she plays herself. And so its safe to assume that she has finally arrived. This is her best performance and will prove to be a milestone in her career.

When you go to watch Vivah (and the loss is yours if you miss it)

pls go inside remembering my words of caution ... when you step out you will have changed.

You will experience a change, grow up somehow, and become more responsible in your life

and more honest in your dealings. The characters of the movie inspire you to be a better person.

It gives us a glimpse of how wonderful our world can be, and all that is needed is for us to leave

our shallowness aside and to what is right.

And that is the biggest victory of Sooraj B.

When Karan Johar accepts divorce and extra marital affairs as a way of life

Sooraj will single handedly reduce the divorce rate to half.

All that is required is for a straying couple to sit and experience this delightfully inspiring

tale together, and they will learn to love each other again.

Thank you Sooraj ji, we are proud of you, proud of being Indians and proud of Indian movies.

The bond of love has far reaching affects. Time can cure wounds. If one is ready to give time and love which problem is not solvable? Heaven is nothingbut the land of happy living people.Vivaah rolls in a very slow pace with a feel good factor before audience getting little restless. However, it was only calmness before a hurricane. One finds that the fate of relations is tied with a thin rope. Bold decisions and compassion are required to overcome such difficulties and in Vivah, Sooraj filled his film with such good people.

Prem (Shahid Kapoor) is an eligible bachelor who does not much involved in his career or taken life seriously. Prem's dad (Anupam Kher) opts for a girl for him, however leave the decision to him. Prem belongs to a rich business family, however, Prem's father chosen a girl from an average family. Poonam (Amrita Rao) was bought up by her Chacha (Alok Nath) & Chachi (Seema Bhiswas). Chachi is obsessed of Poonam because of her concern for her own daughter Chotti. In their first visit and mutual sharing of thoughts Prem and Poonam liked each other and their engagement was fixed. Poonam helped Prem to become successful in his career, where she filled him with confidence when he desperately required it. The marriage day is reached and now? There is a real suspense waiting for you in the store. Go and watch it for yourself.

Story wise, the film is based on a very thin plot. However, I will say the last 35 minutes saved the film from a major disappointment A story is there because of there is a villain. In Sooraj's film the mock 'villain' in the form of poverty and love to her own daughter by Poonam's chachi was not sufficient to hold the interest, leading the audience restless in the beginning of the second half. I will even suggest Sooraj to rethink of his strategy next time.

However Sooraj Bharjatya is a director who knows how to extract the best out of his cast and crew. Alok Nathas like he has just arrived from Taal-did a fine job as the father of the girl and leaves an impact. Anupam Kher arrived from Doli Sajake Rakhnaas the father of the boy and delivers a decent performance, only let down by the script where he did not have much emotional scenes to deliver like in DSR. Shahid Kapoor delivers another fine performance this year after Chup Chup Ke. Amrita Rao did a smart job as well as a girl next door and keeps her hopes alive. Seema Biswasalso manage to do a good job as well

Besides the main characters, Sooraj was supported by fine performance from other cast as well to compensate the thinness of the plot. Whether it is the sister of Poonam or the elder brother of shahid and his family, the frames are lively most of the occasions. Rest of the cast did justice to their roles however, with lack of support from the script they have to contain themselves with small roles with a mark.

Music is one department where the film failed miserably. Except the song Mujhe Haq hai.-which has melody to hold the song to your heart -other songs failed to make any impact. The basic problem for the music was that the situations for the music were part of a story telling and it holds the writer and composer from their freedom. The Background music of the film however, well suited for the film and it helped the film to keep the pleasant mood throughout. Choreography is one department which compensated the failed music department. The choreography has a touch of Saroj Khan in it, whether it is the use of violet and white or use of bangles or use of lights. Jay Borade has done a fine job which needs special mention.

Cinematography is excellent. On the sets and in the vast canvas of the nature, the camera search the best for us. Whether the beauty of the light or the silence of the night the frames brought it out beautifully. Editing is one important department bollywood needed to focus on in later stage of the production. This film would have been more beautiful if it had restricted to 2 hours 20 minutes.

Now, what are the minuses for the film than the thinness of the plot and slowness in the story telling? Villain is not active for over 2 hours. The more than life characters are not lifted straight from the real world, but from an ideal world. The director do not wishes to look at what is poverty which is shown as the villain for quite a long time. The climax challenges the basic human body functions in the sense how we react to the situations. However, the effects of the villain block the basic functioning of audience mind and which leaves Sooraj to a safe winning place.

Overall, Vivah is a typical Rajsri film which tells a story of a happy family life which was thrown into the hands of fate. A feel good film for almost over half of it and a stunning climax is Vivah in short. The word of mouth publicity is bringing audience to the theatres and if the trend is to continue Vivah will bring more joy to bollywood box office to make the year 2006 as one of the best in recent years.

Starring

Shahid Kapoor, Amrita Rao, Anupam Kher, Alok Nath and Seema Biswas

Director

Sooraj Barjatya

Banner

Rajshree Films Pvt Ltd

Release Date

November 10, 2006

When a film-maker of the stature of Sooraj Barjatya makes a film, what do you expect? The ultimate in entertainment.So does VIVAAH,his latest outing, meet the expectations of the viewer, who is waiting with bated breath for the drama to unfold on the big screen?Yes and no!

‘Vivah’ has Shahid playing Prem, an eligible bachelor from Delhi. After repeated pressure from his father (Anupam Kher), an unwilling Prem goes to Madhupur to see a girl for marriage. The girl is Poonam (Amrita Rao).

Prem and Poonam meet. What begins as a formal, awkward conversation between them soon develops into something deeper. As the two spend more time together, love blossoms ...

Prem and Poonam come from very distinct backgrounds. Prem is the son of a wealthy father and has lived his life in a city. Poonam, on the other hand, is an orphan raised by her Chacha (Alok Nath) and Chachi (Seema Biswas).

While Poonam’s chacha has loved her unconditionally, her chachi has always been jealous of her (Poonam’s) beauty and simplicity that makes her more attractive than chachi’s own daughter Rajni (Amrita Prakash).

Prem and Poonam get engaged. Thereafter begins the most magical period in their lives, the period from engagement to marriage. Months fly by and their love becomes stronger. But then, on the day of their wedding a catastrophe strikes.

The story of VIVAAH is a replica of three successful Rajshree flicks – Hum Apke Hain Kaun ,Maine Pyaar Kiya and Hum Saah Saath Hain. The story is not new, but the treatment is. Director Sooraj Barjatya has come up with certain interesting twists and turns that give an altogether fresh look to the story. And the outcome is quite satisfying!

The first half of this family entertainer is run-of-the-mill and lacks thepower to keep the audiences's attention glued to the goings-on especially with rapid flow of songs. If truth were told, the initial reels are cyclical, with the writers offering the same old mundane stuff that has been witnessed time and again in umpteen potboilers.

But the drama takes a turn for the better in the second half [in the marriage sequence] with a major twist. The sequences there after are well executed and it is evident that the director Sooraj Barjatya knows his job well

He has handled a couple of sequences with aplomb. Though the film gives the impression of being a routine love story, it is to the director's credit that he has narrated the story without deviating to the oft-repeated path in the second half.

Every scene in the film have the by-now-famous touch of an accomplished director. All the scenes have been handled with the sensitivity they deserve. The scenes between Shahid-Amrita and their intimate moments are very well captured. The climax is simply touching which takes the graph of the film to another level.

Ravindra Jain's musical score is passable.It lacks a hit score to elevate the proceedings further. Barring the mujhe Haqe track, which has a haunting tune, the remaining numbers are okay.Cinematography is alright.

VIVAAH belongs to Shahid Kapoor who is simply incredible.His expressions, in most difficult sequences and situations, are natural and you can’t help but applaud the sincerity with which he portrays the character of prem.

Amrita Rao is immensely likeable and acts out her portions impressively. Alok Nath ,Anupam and Seema Vishwas lend adequate support.

On the whole, VIVAAH has an engrossing second half and winning performance as its plus points and the fact that it has been sold at a reasonable price, will take the film to safety.

No new release next Friday may also help before the arrival of DHOOM 2 on 24th November.

I was watching Aaj Tak- News channel on Wednesday (25th Oct) & suddenly I was shocked – below ticker was blinking as News Flash- “SHAHID KA VIVAH”. I was desperate to watch the news, what was the real news behind that? That particular news came after several breaks, but I was stick to that channel. The promos I have seen it’s a AMRITA RAO & SHAHID KAPOOR latest film directed by famous family movie director Sooraj R Barjatyaunder RAJSHRI PRODUCTIONbanner. This filmmaker who breathed new life into Indian cinema at a time when people forget love for cinema with such big hits like “Maine Pyar Kiya”, “Hum Aapke Hain Koun” and “Hum Saath Saath Hain”.He is knownmuch for his melodious family films as for his quality but something wrong with his last film “Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon”-the story was not so strong as simple love triangle &theme was that Kareena Kapoor would love Hrithik Roshan & engaged in end with Abhishek ??? Now “VIVAH”includes major cast role as family requires lot of character Shahid Kapur, Amrita Rao, Anupam Kher, Alok Nath, Seema Biswas etc.. The main theme of this movie is “A journey from engagement to marriage”. He has tried some flavour of “HUM AAPKE HAIN KAUN”

In Vivah, he intends to look at the sanctity of marital bonding & look at the man-woman relationship with some detachment.Vivah isn't about the festivities and celebrations connected with a marriage. It's about the definitions and dynamics of a marriage. Once that engagement ring is exchanged, you suddenly become so important to someone else. He feels today's youngsters are losing touch with the beauty and relevance of such a relationship. His film starts with engagement and ends with marriage. The film is only about the gradual growth in the couple's relationship. He was very impressed by Shahid and Amrita’s performances in their earlier films “36 China Town” & “Main Huo Na”., but appreciation from the audience is very important. Why SOORAJ had selected these youngsters?? Because this movie is all about youngsters & he feels they are the one but not Kareena this time- due to her glamorous & chocolate image she was not able to play sober family role…as she played in song of Main Huo Na…TUmse mill dey ka haal…in salwar- suit one.

Guys ready to watch VIVAH on 10th Nov-06 again its good to watch with family so that mom- dad will also seen the pure family entertainment with you & specially for love birds ( this line)-after watching this movie your parents will say YES to marry with your partner.
