The
story is based on a girl, Khushi (Kareena Kapoor) and her college
friend Karan (Fardeen Khan).
Both
share a common passion of helping their fellow colleagues in their
hour of need even if it means sacrificing their own happiness.
Karan,
an ambitious lad, has always dreamt of going to Canada for further
studies.
But circumstances forced him to remain in India and enrol at the
Mumbai University.
Khushi's
family believes that she should get married upon completion of her
secondary education.
But
Khushi insists on carrying on with her education at the nearest
University - the Mumbai University (what a coincidence!).
During
their time on the college campus, Karan bumps into Khushi. And through
a series of incidents, they both fall in love - how predictable!
One
day, a serious argument erupts between the two lovers due to Karan's
shrewd intentions. This results in their separation.
But
their time apart does not last long because both had taken full
responsibility to play cupid for their best University mates.
In
the process of solving their friends' tragic love story, both Khushi
and Karan realise that they still have feelings for each other.
But
what's stopping them expressing their love for each other is their
own egoistical characters.
And
that, in a nutshell is what this film is all about.
It
is clear that Khushi is a love story but the difference here, is
the way the two lovers unite by declaring their love for each other.
The
highlight of the movie is the music by Anu Malik and the way the
songs have been 'canned'.
Reputed
to be the costliest song ever shot, Tere Bina is undoubtedly
the best number from all the recent Bollywood releases.
Following
closely behind is Hai Re, shot at some of the scenic beauty
spots of the United States. The various get-up from the lead pair
makes this song stand out from the crowd.
With
the release of Khushi, Fardeen Khan has finally gained the much
needed recognition he so rightly deserves.
As
for Kareena Kapoor, she has finally broken her 'Poo cocoon' since
her release of Kabhie Khushi Khabie Gham few years back.
Overall
Khushi is lavishly shot with some memorable moments which will appeal
to all the members of the family.
