One of the worst Bollywood films I've seen


Bollywood always copies Hollywood. The only difference between a Bollywood and a Hollywood movie is that Bollywood movies are much longer with extra doses of song and dance and idiotic comedy routines. Yaraana is such a typical Hindi movie that belonged to the same genre. It lifted the basic plot of the Hollywood film 'Sleeping with the Enemy' and turned it into such a crappy plot. The only good thing was that it had the reigning Bollywood queen Madhuri Dixit inside it. She was a delight to watch as usual. Her career had taken a setback in 1995 and few of her movies succeeded at the BO till late 1997. I liked her modern, drop-dead gorgeous look in the film. That type of look was so rare in the 90's. Madhuri is one of the beautiful actresses I've seen after Sridevi and Rekha. Madhuri's swaying moves in songs like 'mera piya ghar aaya' and 'jaane woh kaisa chor tha' in the climax were definitely a plus. The story of the film is nothing novel and lots of happenings didn't make sense. The scenes were jumping from one place to another. It just shows that the film was so badly edited. It was difficult to understand what David Dhawan was trying to do. He was confused whether to make a thriller or a romantic comedy. The end product ended up being a disaster. I regret watching this movie, the only reason for my viewing was Madhuri Dixit and nothing else!
