We have no clue why Indian cinema-goers cannot accept serious and morbid twists in a film. Sure, we watch films to escape reality but it is great to see those who have endured so much trauma, live happily ever after. A film that rooted for the physically handicapped, Mann deserved a far better fate at the box office. 

"Are they out of their minds," you must be asking. No. Watch the incredulous comedy of Govinda and Johny Lever in this flick and you will know why so many of our critics enjoyed this movie.

This puts a spoke in the theory that all critics hated Biwi No 1. Half the PB staff loved it, and half hated it. Some took the comedic twist on a serious issue light-heartedly and others deplored it. Go figure!

Not an extremely novel theme, but Nihalani tells it far better than most commercial directors ever could. Again, a film unjustly neglected by the box office.

Visuals and music that mesmerize the eyes. You could throw pebbles through the wafer-thin and uninspired plot, but Anil Kapoor and technology helped rescue the day for this flick.

On ode to film fans; if only everyones' love for their favourite stars was thus reciprocated. Then again, would you really want to marry those emotionally distraught people on the other side of the screen? Wow, I just came up with another movie idea. The fan stalked by the cinema star.

Laughter and fun runs amuck in this simple, but effective flick from David Dhawan. Who's the King of Comedy, huh, who?

There's an omnipresent sense of doom and danger in this well-crafted Indo-Canadian venture. Though Mehta could not really incorporate the songs well into her movie, Earth shows how Indians can make good cinema in the International domain.

Who's that at your door? Dare to be different as always, Mr. Varma. The man changes genre from movie to movie, more than our heroines change clothes in a song. And he does it with far more engaging and memorable results.

His first film, Khamoshi: The Musical, was a flop in India and a super-hit overseas. His second is above average in India and a super-hit overseas. Talented Bhansali's tenth film will probably be a mega-hit even on Mars.
