I am so so so so SO excited to share this film with you! It’s not just Shahrukh, it’s the whole crazy melodramatic plot, and the stacked cast, and EVERYTHING.
It’s on Prime, FINALLY. Prime has it at exactly 2 hours and 29 minutes, so if you find it somewhere else, just make sure it is the same length.
It’s also 99 cents to rent, but I’m thinking you will be willing to pay 99 cents to see this film? With Shahrukh being a baby and the cast being crazy?

To step out of the movie for a bit – SRK’s character is somewhat reserved and stern, but when he was trying to fool the women in meetings he was goofy and talkative. Kinda like he was playing two different roles. I don’t think he would have switched characters like that now.

I do have to say that it is awfully convenient for Laila that the women who gave her up to the orphanage are all well off and rich now. She lucked out that her mom wasn’t living under a bridge. Which I suspect is a more typical story for most kids in an orphanage.
