Aamir Khan is India's one of the topmost actors. This chocolate faced hero was introduced to the Hindi cinegoers in a movie by his uncle Nasir Hussain in the movie Qayamat se Qayamat tak


The Plot


Randhir Singh(Goga Kapoor) and Dhanraj Singh(Dilip Tahil) are the heads of two fueding families who can't see eye to eye. Their fight started when Randhir's brother got Dhanraj's sister pregnant and refused to marry her. The enraged Dharaj then kills Randhir's brother. Since that day the two families are sworn enemies.


Predictably, Randhir's daughter, Rashmi(Juhi Chawla) and Dhanraj's son, Raj(Aamir Khan) meet each other and fall in love at first sight. Now the question how do they convince their two families to accept this relationship.


Check out this Nasir Hussain-Mansoor Khan offering for the answer.


Critic's Viewpoint


As seen from the plot, it is an age old formula for hindi movies, fueding families nursing loving children is as old as the stone ages of Bollywood. So why would the audience accept another version of this time hackneyed tale.


The answer was simple, in the late 80s love stories were far and few between as the Bollywood was dominated by actioners and westerners in Bollywood ishtyle. So when Qayamat se Qayamat Tak came with its fresh look and appeal, the movie went on to become a winner all the way.


The fresh look and feel was down to Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla. The movie was Aamir's debut movie and although technically it was Juhi's second movie, it was her first meaningful role. The young duo blazed the screens with their trademark smile and looks.


While Aamir's chocolatey looks stealed into the hearts of every maiden, Juhi's innocence and naughty eyes and smile scorched through the hearts of every young man. Performance wise both have given a good performance a precursor for great things which was to come from both of them.


Raj Zutshi also makes a good beginning to his career in the role of Aamir's brother and looks good in the supporting role. The others have come up with decent performances.


Mansoor Khan should be credited for making the youngsters look accomplished in the movie and extract the best out of the others as well. The movie goes through at a decent pace.


But, there are a few inconsistencies in the movie. The character of Rashmi is not properly etched out and she at times is innocence personified and at other times an element of arrogance seems to flare up from nowhere. Also the melodrama was slightly overdone.


Music of Qayamat se Qayamat Tak


One aspect of any love story that has be a winner for the movie to succeed is the music album. Anand Milind have provided a perfect album for a love story.


The album begins with the melodious Akele hain to kya gam hai sung in the melodious voices of Alka Yagnik and Udit Narayan. The song has good lyrics and the music is also very rich.


Ay mere humsafar is another love duet sung by Alka and Udit which went onto the top of the music charts.


Gazab ka hai din again by the same pair complete the trio of perfect love duets for the movie. Another mega hit song.


Then we come to the song that became the epitome of Qayamat se Qayamat tak as also for teenagers coming out of college. The song Papa kehte hai filmed with a Grease like look and feel with Aamir weilding the guitar, the song became an anthem of the teens in the country and even today happens to be on of their favorites. The song was sung by Udit Narayan.


All in all a perfect 10 for Anand-Milind in the music department for the movie.


Summary


Given the massive success of the music album, the movie was supposed to do well, but the success of the movie was well beyond the expectations and this was due not only to the music, but also to the fresh appeal and lively performances from Aamir and Juhi.


I would give this movie a 4 star rating.

Of all of Bollywood's'young' love stories(Bobby, Maine Pyar Kiya, Betaab, etc.) Mansoor Khan's'Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak' is easily my favorite.


Though the story is very familiar(it's "Romeo & Juliet" reinvented for India) there is a tenderness and a freshness to the story which is difficult to articulate. It hearkens a very different era of film-making- there is no gloss to speak of, only story, conflict, and human relationships. Refreshing, yes?


Of course, most people remember QSQT for introducing two young starlets who would go on to become superstars: Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla. Aamir, though undeniably charming, is slightly awkward(this actually adds to the performance) contrasting Juhi's more confident and elegant performance. There is no denying that they make a stunning couple, complementing each other as perfectly as other renown on screen pairs. Check out'Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke' and'Ishq' for more blazing chemistry.


The other star of the film is the soundtrack: each song is a classic, my favorite being "Aye Mere Humsafar", which is soft, sweet, and perfectly singable. A MUST SEE and a MUST HEAR!

Its very nice movie

It begins and ends with the title pun intended. The literal meaning of qayamat the Urdu word is derived from the Arabic qiyamah, which carries the same principal meaning is the'day of judgment'. Secondary meanings of the word include'calamity' or a'heartening implosion'(the word is used often in poetry, within the context of courtship!). No matter how one applies these meanings to the title of qayamat se qayamat Tak(1988), it makes sense. From one calamity to the next. Bringing hearts together. Through the day of judgment.


It's been 21 years since its release, through a generation. In hindsight, there could not have been a better coupling for the lead pair of Mansoor Khan's directorial debut. See, those who believe in the concept of an afterlife of any sort need not worry if they have been advocates for love and not hatred. This most certainly includes actors in their lead role debuts in this film, Aamir Khan(Raj) and Juhi Chawla(Rashmi), who will likely go to heaven for spreading all the Love, Love, Love! Which brings us to the premise of this film - a family feud that gets in the way of love.


Honor killings around marriages are a terribly sad reality, and almost accepted by some. When it's not lovers being killed, it's family members. Like radicalism and terrorism, it is, in my view, somewhat independent of the class issue(here's an example of a North American family from India involved in one). So they're not restricted to the less educated or poor. Too often, parents are instigators. Which is why QSQT is an extremely well packaged film that carries a valid and relevant social message. It also includes implicit commentary on women's rights, and addresses the dynamic that often guides these unbelievably ignorant and hateful crimes. In so doing, it doesn't once deviate from being a good old family drama with a love story at its foundation.


Aamir first and one of the finest
Sep 01, 2015 03:00 PM 4682 Views

The first movie of 2 actors that went on to become very successful, one of whom is rated as one of the GREATEST of all time, I'm of course talking about Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla.


A simple love story that surrounds around two families(that do not get along well with each other) and how the children from these two families(Aamir and Juhi) fall in love with each other.


The movie depicts how complexities in love can go to any extend in troubling the ambition .of marrying your love and living happily ever after.


However, happily ever after are not always successful and I like this movie particularly from it's genuineness and realism.


Without doubt, you should catch the first time that Aamir Khan faced the camera and how he was always a natural at it.


A breath of fresh air!!

Great Indian Movies - QSQT
Aug 25, 2005 11:55 PM 7477 Views

Let me reveal something here - This is my most favorite love story of all-time - It's very sweet, cute, romantic and magical. Although I expect there will be many more great love stories will come out from India over the years, it's unlikely that QSQT will ever slip to second place. Reason? Honestly, I don't know. May be I am bias to this one or because of naive lead characters or cute story or my own younger age when movie released or may be it relates to my adolescent school days. There is no specific answer. Just like many who were in school in mid-1990s, DDLJ will be their favorite love story forever; QSQT will be my favorite love story forever.


QSQT will be always remembered as reviving 60s and early 70s era's innocent love stories on Indian silver screens. If you look at closely, mid-1980s, Hindi cinema was producing social, action or masala movies with aged artists - actors like Aamitabh, Dharmendra, Jeetendra etc and music directors like Laxmikant-Pyarelal, Kalyanji-Anandji, R.D.Burman etc. This was the era when Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Sunny Deol, and Mithun were future of Indian cinema. QSQT gets credit for ending era of senseless violence in Hindi films and bringing back romantic musicals.


In 1988, Nasir Husain productions blessed with band of creative young group of artists - Director, Actor, Actress, Music Director, Male and Female Playback singers and created history called QSQT and It didn't take long for QSQT to become cultural phenomenon for new age Indian cinema. Lots of unknown promising artists - actors, music directors, singers career took off in late 80s and early 90s and most of them became legend by the time 2005.


Story


QSQT is a true Indian adaptation of Shakespeare’s Romeo-Juliet. QSQT is the story of two innocent lovebirds against the backdrop of intense family rivalry.


In small village, inevitable incident in the heat of anger became the root of an enmity so bitter and unforgiving between the families of Dhanraj Singh (Dalip Tahil) and Randhir Singh (Goga Kapoor) that it was to continue to send shockwaves of hatred and bloodshed into the next generation as well.


Years pass by, families already moved to Delhi for better business prospects, and fate brought together Dhanraj's son Raj (Aamir Khan) and Randhir's daughter Rashmi (Juhi Chawla) in Mt.Abu. They fall in love at first sight. They were drawn irresistibly to one another, and once again long simmering passions were ignited as the two feuding families tried to force the young lovers to accept a heritage of mutual hatred.


Despite implacable opposition, Raj and Rashmi continued to plan their life together. The rest of the film shows how they fight their families for their love, how they end the age-old enmity and what happens to them.


Analysis


Even though it's one of the most often repeated themes in world cinema. It's fresh perspective, innocent narration, new cute faces, young energetic team, melodious music everything worked so well that QSQT become cult classic. At the same time, even though I love this movie, I am not blind enough to overlook many unnecessary subplots – Group of crooks harassing Rashmi in jungle, Truck driver’s sequence in climax scene etc. are ordinary by today’s standards. I am not saying it was unnecessary but it could have been better.


As far as the scenes, many of them are unforgettable. Even though its love story, most of dramatic scenes is well executed and it will leave striking effect on your psyche. My favorites scenes are Dhanraj’s knowing Rashmi’s reality while dropping her back to camp, Dhanraj’s first confrontation with Raj when they came back from Abu, Randhir’s knowing Raj and Rashmi’s relationship and subsequent scene when he follows them in library and car, Raj trying to meet Rashmi on her engagement day, Raj and Randhir’s confrontation at Rashmi’s house, and I can go on and on. My most favorite sequence of the movie is climax. If you are familiar with Romeo-Juliet then you know the ending but I would not reveal it here. It’s one of most moving ending of love story I have ever seen in the Indian films.


Veteran director Nasir Hussain and Mansoor Khan worked with unknown music director Anand Milind and composed one of finest melodies of 1980s penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri. I honestly feel that QSQT along with Nadeem Sharawan’s Aashiqui was pioneer in starting a fresh wave of melodious music of 1990s. I still remember craze of QSQT songs in the summer vacation of 1988. Fresh magical melodies sung by relatively unknown playback singers, Alka Yagnik and Udit Narayan swept youngsters all over India including myself. - Papa Kehte Hain, Aye Mere Humsafar, Akele Hain To Kya Gum Hai, and Gazab Ka Hai Din all are catchy.


Akele Hain To Kya Gum Hai and Gazab Ka Hai Din both songs were partly dialogues, party melodies well blended in the story and ably well composed with fresh playful tunes. My most favorite song of the movie is undoubtedly - Aye Mere Humsafar. This will be always among my most favorite romantic songs compilation. Its placement, locals of ooty, lyrics, and tunes everything was amazing. How can I forget clock-ticking music, which starts this song? It was perfect song for perfect love story.


One of the best thing happened to QSQT was its Background score. Anand-Milind’s unique haunting score elevated some of dramatic scenes to the different level, which makes you glued to the seat while watching scenes with throbbing heart. Look out scenes when Dhanraj kills his sister’s lover, or when Dhanraj knows reality of Rashmi’s parents, or when Randhir looking for Raj-Rashmi in library and then follows him later in car.


This movie belongs to one of the best onscreen couple of Indian cinema - Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla. Their onscreen chemistry makes this movie real. They are so cute that your heart goes with them. Juhi's Rashmi's character is among the sweetest character I have seen along with Bhagyashree's Suman’s character in Maine Pyar Kiya. The way she says, ''HUM'' and “AAP” instead of ''MAIN'' and “TUM”, it feels like whole dialogue delivered with pure innocence and cuteness. Both of them well supported by mature cast especially Dalip Tahil and Beena as Raj’s parents, Alok Nath as Raj’s uncle, Zutshi as Raj’s cousin, Goga Kapoor and Reema Lagoo as Rashmi’s parents, and Shenaaz as Rashmi’s friend.


It seems like one of the reason youth of 1990s loved QSQT was because they felt very close to Aamir’s character. The young viewers were tired of the obedient patterns set by their earlier generation and watching aged superstars in the movies. Aamir’s character represented 1990s youth thinking, philosophies, and attitudes.


I am great fan of Mansoor Khan. He created one of my all-time favorites along with Aamir Khan – QSQT and JJWS. It’s really unfortunate that we haven’t got chance to see more of these talented duo.


Conclusion


What can I say about this magical journey? This movie is so cute that I just adore it. Whenever someone talks about QSQT, I feel some special sensation in myself. If you want to feel same way what I feel about it then you have to see it by yourself. You will never forget that experience. It’s an evergreen and timeless classic.

Nope it isn?t a movie rvu for Fida..its for a love story which didn?t have a perfect ending. Most of the romantic movies in Bollywood have a happy-ending after 2 -2.5 hours of drama. But QSQT was the first movie, I saw, which didn?t have the perfect ending..Hence the title.


Qayamat se Qayamat Tak(1988)


Producer: Naseer Hussain


Director: Mansoor Khan


Music: Anand-Milind


Lyrics: Majrooh Sultanpuri


Cast: Aamir Khan, Juhi Chawla, Dalip Tahil, Goga Kapoor, etc.


Introduction:


All of u must have seen this movie. Debut movie for the male and female leads Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla respectively. Directed by Mansoor Khan and produced by Naseer Hussain. The music is by Anand-Milind and lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri. Although the title is different but it seemed that it a mushy-mushy kind of romantic flick but it wasn?t..read on..


Story/Plot:


The movie starts off in a village with the two old-age Thakur families being shown. There is Dhanraj Singh Thakur (Dalip Tahil) and Randhir Singh (Goga Kapoor). As expected these two are nemesis of each other and hate each other like hell. Now Dhanraj, on the eve of Randhir?s brother?s marriage, goes and shoots his bro. becoz he feels that he is responsible for the death of Dhanraj?s sister. Becoz the rivalry between the two families increases and they swear to kill each other. Becoz of that killing Dhanraj is sent to jail for umarkaid and Randhir?s family goes to settle in the city. And by fate (from the story-writer?s desk) Randhir?s family becomes wealthy and amir types.


Now Raj is being introduced by the song Papa kehte hain?but he hasn?t being brought up by his father he is brought up by his uncle aloknath. Now as expected in a hindi movie Raj and his cousin Shyam (Raj Zutshi) go to Mount Abu for holidays where he meets Rashmi (Juhi Chawla). And the tender love-moment of love begins between them. By the time Dhanraj has returned from Jail. Raj knows what will be the fate of their love-affair but the bonding between Raj and Rashmi becomes so strong that he decides whatever their fate be no one would separate them.


Now Rashmi?s parents come to know about her affair with Raj and they instead of telling Rashmi decide her marriage with Randhir?s friend?s son. Raj and Rashmi cannot bear this and they run away from home. Now Dhanraj and Randhir both reach the place where the two of them are living and hiding. At the end as I had expected that Dhanraj and Randhir will forget their enmity and will reconcile with each other. But Thakur?s never forget their rivalries and Randhir tries to kill Raj with a gun but instead kills her own daughter Rashmi. Raj cannot see this and being a true-lover he also kills himself with a knife. A tragic end to a love-story.


Performances:


Aamir Khan: Being his debut he did well and becoz of his great acting skills he is currently one of the finest actors in the Hindi film industry. Looks extremely cute in the movie and girls would have surely drooled over him when they saw the movie for the first time. Excellent work by him.


Mrs.Jai Mehta aka Juhi Chawla: The former Miss India also did well in her debut movie. Still looks young even after her marriage and kids. Her acting was well in the movie and looks very beautiful in the movie. Guys see the movie for her..


Dalip Tahil: At the start of the movie as a angry young man did well. And then as a father also played his part well. The look on his face really looked phenomenal when he, for the first time, sees Raj at the farewell party.


Goga Kapoor: Did well too. As a angry Thakur he is being justified in his short role well.


Other performances by Raj Zutshi, Aloknath, Reema Lagoo are well played.


Music:


Music by Anad-Milind is the best. I don?t think they have given a better music album than QSQT. I still hear the songs very much even though they are more than 10 years old. My favorites are Ey mere Humsafar, Papa kehte hai and Akele Hai to kya gam hai?


Conclusion:


All in all it?s a must watch. As I said earlier not all love stories have the perfect ending. And this is the best story which didn?t have the perfect ending of all?


Blood on White Roses
Jan 26, 2004 01:03 AM 3656 Views

Acknowledgements: I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing the assertive ''Dhoop'' and the gilt-edged ''Ijaazat''. Both of them reviews clinched on a serious note. And I really enjoy reading your comments and it helps me improving on crafting my reviews. Appreciation circulated.


After reviewing a comic ''Chashme Buddoor'', two top tenners, a rational ''Ijaazat'' and a realistic ''Dhoop'', I wanted to dissect an out and out romantic. A few movies crossed my mind, like DDLJ, Saathiya and Dil toh Paagal Hai. I zeroed on Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (QSQT) which I believe is a rarity in its kinds. This is Mansoor Khan's ode to Shakespere's ''Romeo and Juliet''.


Indian Cinema saw a dearth in quality in the 1980's. The arena was held-sway by the likes of Mithun, Chunky, Dharmendra, Govinda and can't really remember many others. Movies baptized with funny titles such as, Paap ko Jalaa kar raakh kar doonga, Marte Dum Tak, Khooni Darinda, Lohe ki pukaar, Aag ka golaa, Toone mere maa ko maara mere baap ko maara ab mai tujhe maaroonga, etc, ''yaar... aise movies dekh kar viewers toh mar hi jaate the''.


QSQT came in as a relief by the debutant Mansoor Khan in this stagnant period. It also saw the debut of the quality-seeker Aamir Khan and flamboyant Juhi Chawla. This movie boasted of a great sound-track by Anand-Milind. ''Akele Hain toh kya gam hai'' and ''ghazab ka hai din'' happen to be one of my all time favourites. ''Papa kehte hain'' is a very popular number among college students.. particularly during the farewell days.


The Thread: Raj (Aamir Khan) and Rashmi's (Juhi Chawla) families are bequeathed cutthroat rivals. Myopic to their family's violent chronicles of the past, the couple fall in love. Flowers blossom in their hanky-panky fairy tale until their families debunk their amour. Despite a few badgers and daunts by their families, the couple continue to date. Discovering this clandestine dating, Rashmi's family compel Rashmi to get married to a fixed alliance. On the night of the marriage, Raj and Rashmi elope with the help of a few friendlies leaving their families absolutely furious of their actions.


The eloped couple manage to find a secluded shelter on a hill top and share the most romantic moments of their lifetime including a very melodious song, ''Akele hain toh Kya gam hai''. In the mean time, Raj and Rashmi's families are in the process of tracking down their eloped children. Rashmi's father also hires a couple of hit men to track Rashmi and slay Raj. The movie culminates with Raj and Rashmi being found by their families and the hit men. Rashmi is accidently shot in a fender bender and Raj stabs himself to death leaving their families guilty of their misdeeds.


The disastrous love story like Shakespere's Romeo and Juliet, ends on a very sad note leaving the protagonists dead.


Mansoor's beautifully portrayal of a doomed love story, QSQT rocks. Aamir and Juhi enact their innocent and immaculate roles with utmost sincerity. Cameos played by Raj Zutshi and Dilip Tahil is adorable. The climax is surely a tear-jerker (have to admit I was in tears when I first it ... I was 12 years old).


QSQT Rocks.......


PS: Will enthusiastically look forward for your ratings and comments. Hope you enjoyed reading this review. Cheers..


Love Story

Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak is one the Blockbuster movie of Bollywood. Its a romantic movie. It was a big hit of the 1988. Well played by Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla, hit pair of this movie.


The movie begins with the families of Raj (Aamir Khan) and Rashmi (Juhi Chawla). Their families are greatest enemies. But Raj and Rashmi, both are aware of this fact. They met in the jungle where they both came there with their friends. And from there, their love story begins. Raj's cousin brother supports him in this and Rashmi's best friend supports her. They help them to run out from the house when Rashmi was going to get married with the other person. Then they go to some isolated place where no one recognize them but somehow Rashmi's daddy comes to know about this and then he and his guards tries to find out them. Then the climax begins. In this movie it makes you laugh, romantic and makes you cry. And I liked Juhi Chawla saying ''hum'' instead of saying ''mein'', and she sounds so sweet while saying this word with other sentence. Both Aamir & Juhi looks very cute. They both seems to be a good pair.


Its worthwatching and when we watch so much of other movies then we should watch this once. Even we watch it number of times it doesn't makes you bore. The songs are too good. All the songs are fantastic... ''Aaye mere humsafar....'' ''Gazab ka hai din... dekho zaraa''.... ''Papa kehte hai bada naam karega'' and others..


Do watch it once.


Any comment plz... do write.

Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak revived the era of romantic movies in Hindi Cinema. It happened to be the most successful film of the year 1988 and at the same time gifted many talents to Indian Cinema. Be it Aamir Khan….who went on to be the heart throb of the nation….Juhi Chawla….who ruled the hearts of youngsters as the bubbly actress….Udit Narayan……..remember his versatile style of singing…..be it Aae Mere Humsafar…..or Papa Kehte Hain….last but not the least the sensible director Mansoor Khan…who went on to make many successful films. We all enjoyed them and the movie…which successfully evoked the divine emotion of LOVE …..in the hearts of viewers…


The Story :


Raj ( Aamir Khan) the darling son of Daleep Tahil and Beena (oops..i cant recall their names in the film) falls in love with Rashmi (Juhi Chawla), who happens to be the only daughter of their family’s dreaded enemy. Raj, who was aware of this enmity could not stop himself from falling in love with Rashmi…who is ignorant about this bitter fact. Little did they know what is in store for them. Both these lovers try to reunite their families and in this process…….meet to an inevitable end..which leaves the viewer sad……and distressed. But this is reality…..and it bites..


Aamir Khan :


He happened to be the ultimate lover for all the young college going girls during that period…such was his magic. …even I happened to be one of the victims ( but no regrets…..still I am ). Nobody could have potrayed the character of Raj…..the way he did. He was the ultimate….his innocence, his expressions……his boyish charms and specially the jungle sequence was the best. Everything about him was just the best.


Juhi Chawla :


The perfect girl for the perfect boy. She was this bubbly chirpy girl next door….so innocent, naïve….and very cute. She too perfectly fitted in the character of Rashmi. She gained recognition from this film which was her 2nd one…Sultanat was her debut film. She was her best when she struggled to make food for Raj…..as the film is nearing finish. The viewers could enjoy the sparks that these amazing pair shared on screen…which went on for some successful films….until they decided to part.


The Songs :


One of the most memorable albums of Indian Cinema.. All the songs are melodious and romantic and would always be remembered. But my personal favourite happens to be “Aae Mere Humsafar”….It has been sung as well as picturised beautifully. All the other songs are equally good…


The Direction :


Director Mansoor Khan made a mark in the Indian Film Industry with this film. He is the person responsible for such splendid performances from the newcomers. Altogether a great work done by Mansoor Khan.


Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak can be termed as one of those memorable movies which has made a place for itself in hearts of the viewers. This movie can never be boring….and can be watched number of times together. Every time you see the movie….you would want to see it again…and again..such is the magnetic pull of this movie….

My 100th review
Aug 31, 2002 12:28 AM 4390 Views

Since this review completes my 100, I was pondering for a


while as to what should I write about.


A look around my room and I knew this had to be it. There is


still a poster of Aamir hanging on my wall and many more in


my clothes closet.


Not that I still have a crush on him, but never had the heart


to tear down the poster either.


For those of you who don't remember Aamir made his first television


debut with Holi. And then there was Raakh which released later. But


the big one to make him a national craze was Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak.


QSQT launched not just Aamir but also his cousin Mansoor Khan - who directed


the film and music directors Anand-Milind and also Aamir's voice in the film -


Udit Narayan. Not to forget Juhi Chawla whose career it resurrected after the


forgettable Sultanat or something...


Aamir was actually training under Uncle Nasir Husain to become a director. But t


things changed when Mansoor decided to cast him as the leading man in the film.


Aamir had to not just give away with his inhibitions of acting in front of a camera


but also had to part with his moustache.


The film is an age-old story a recreation of Romeo and Juliet if you may please.


Two disputed families who have a history of violence between them, their offspring which


is born to fall in love and try to end the war.


And as it happens in all immortal love stories meet with an unhappy end.


Although the story was nothing new, the treatment was.


Each character fitted to a T. Dalip Tahil probably for the first time made a mark as an actor


as Aamir's father playing an important role.


Same goes for Goga Kapoor who plays Juhi's father. And the rest of the supporting cast.


The film had all the necessary ingredients - fresh faces, mature supporting cast, hummable music


and fresh locations.


Technically the film is quite mediocre. Nothing to write about.


But there was some magic that worked and worked well. It is quite difficult to pinpoint that reason


that made it work. Probably it was a perfect ensemble.


Most of all there was a certain innocence in the film which was appealing to people of all ages. Innocence


not just in the actors but also in the director's narration.


Whenever a love story is made with this kind of innocence it has always worked in the past. And it will continue


to.


All said and done, QSQT was the film that made Aamir into such a QSCutie!!!!!!!


Neat is the word

Very old movie. But I guess everyone loved it. I think everyone must have seen this one. Very few unlucky ones must have missed this one. This movie is one of my all time favorite movie. This is the first movie of Amir Khan I have seen. He is too good an actor, such a versatile guy. He was new to the industry then, but he has done a fabulous job in this movie. Obviously this movie deserves an Award.


The best thing I liked about this movie was the song PAPA KAHTE HEIN. its such a inspirational song. It reminds me what my dad used to tell me when I was young. Plus all the other songs are really soothing & melodious.


The baseline of the story is similar to Romeo & Juliet.


But its very well made. Amir & Juhi both fall in love with each other, but their dad's are the worst of enemies.


The family resistance towards their love.


Its all about the couples guts & their blind love for each other, running away from home, & hiding in some isolated place. However they are somehow found out by Juhi's cousins.


Juhi's dad hires gunmen to kill Amir. Lots of serious stuff happening at the end. The gunman fires the gun...bang bang...someone gets killed... plus there is this climax scene...i wont tell u ...see it for your self...


all in all amazing movie..go take your girl-friend & watch it...cant miss it for anything...


such a nice movie...it really makes you fall in love...


Love at its appealing best

Qayamat se Qayamat tak released way back in 1988 is one of the most magical love story I have seen.It also gave us some of the finest talents in Bollywood,Aamir khan,Juhi chawla(though she made her debut in Sultanat but came into limelight with this film),Mansoor khan(the director)and Udit narayan(the playback singer)who all made a debut with this film.Q.S.Q.T was a resounding success and fine performances by the leadcast and sparkling fresh music made this film a trendsetter and it was with this film that love stories did strike a chord in the hearts of viewers.


The story revolved around Raj(Aamir khan)and Rashmi(Juhi chawla)the children of two feuding families who fall in love,amidst family hostilities.Their parents object to their love,and both Raj and Rashmi run away from their house ,and finally both die in the end.


DIRECTION:Q.S.Q.T was Mansoor khan's foray into the world of cinema as a director and his talent was more than evident in his first attempt.He treated this teenage love classic with amazing simplicity and sensitivity.He handled the actors very well and with amazing maturity.He also had a good sense of music and the way he picturised the songs was beautifull.Though the film was a regular love story he maintained a tout control at every stage in the entire film.Extremely good debut for a first timer.


ACTING:Q.S.Q.T marked the debut of Aamir khan and Juhi chawla,too.With his adorable choclate looks and innocence Aamir went on to become the teenage hearthrob.Aamir khan is probably my first and last crush.God!I was totally smitten by him after watching the film.He also proved that he could act, besides looking good.Juhi was equally impressive and looked really cute.Aamir and Juhi had wonderful on screen chemistry,and looked smashing together.The rest of the cast comprimised of Dilip tahil,Raj zutshi,Goga kapoor,Alok nath and Reema lagu,and they all did justice to their role.


MUSIC:Music of the film is something I have grown on.Q.S.Q.T had amazing music by Anand milind and lyrics by Sameer.Each song was a gem,whether it was the cool Papa kehta hai,the romantic Aa mera humsafar or Akele hai to kya gam hai but my absolute favourite happens to be Gazab ka hai din.I just love the song and the way it has been sung by Udit narayan and Alka yagnik.Q.S.Q.T is a soundtrack you cannot afford to miss.


Qayamat se Qayamat tak is one of the sweetest film I have seen and a film I have grown watching. It also happens to be one of my favourite film coz it was real and touching and was not like the candyfloss romances we get to see often.
