Pyaar Impossible! (2010)

This was a terrific movie. Fun, caring, goofy, over the top.I am not sure as of August 2015, the poor rating 4.7? This movie is fantastic. For those who grew up in the 80's, the is an 80's American movie in the truest sense. No one should ignore this movie. If it has a bad rating from someone, ignore it. This movie was terrific to say the least, reminds me of the great 80's movies in America.Essentially guy meets girl movie. He was a geek and could never talk to her, but admired her. Unfortunately fate never allowed them to meet and talk. Years later on business, he spots her and his old feelings comeback.I gave this movie a 10 out of 10. Fast, fun, caring, MUST SEE!!!

First, this is a warm feel good movie much like pictures of kittens and puppies. If that is not your cup of tea, then skip it. The story of the geek winning over the girl has been done before, but the humor in this movie makes it a winner. Abhay's (Uday Chopra) social awkwardness is a winner here and Alisha's (Priyanka Chopra) roll as a sexy socialite oblivious to Abhay's geek world is perfect. The antics Uday goes through to win her and her monster daughter over is funny and the turn in the end is sweet and awesome. Some of the humor is dumb (including the bad wig on Anupam Kher's head), but fits right in. The music is catchy and keeps you taping your feet. There is a small underlying story of being able to see the world differently from another point of view and it is well done (Priyanka makes a hot geek!). Some of the dialog is a little boring and almost seems like the actors are ad-libbing some lines at times, but it is saved by the humor in the story. I will watch this again and again and is one of my favorites. A perfect family film for all ages.

There are many reasons why I had opted to watch this film. First off, it's Uday Chopra, an actor whom I confess only having watch his comical sidekick roles in the Dhoom movies, so I was curious whether he can carry a film off on his own as a leading man. The answer is of course yes, as he plays the geek Abhay right down to the pat, a man who had been infatuated with the hottest girl in school for seven years, always afraid to open his mouth and talk to her, given an opportunity to do so when in pursuit of a software thief, he travels to Singapore and serendipity dictates he will bump into his infatuation, and even more incredibly get to work as her precocious, feisty daughter's nanny. Not to mention too that this story and dialogues are credited under Uday himself, so one wonders where he had drawn his inspiration from, whether he had actually pined for someone like his character did in the film.Second, the other lead in actress Priyanka Chopra. There are plenty of naysayers to her credibility as an actress, but from what I watched last year from Fashion right down to Ashutosh Gowariker's What's Your Rashee (missed Kaminey!), she had shown her versatility and wide range, which the brickbrats would still like to point out in the latter film, was nothing more than a change of clothes and hairstyles, which I totally disagree. Her performance here as Alisha, the single, divorced mother and Abhay's girl of his dreams, would once again become a showcase of her ability, despite yet again looking great in the various outfits which would raise an eyebrow whether it's appropriate corporate office attire (and overheard from another audience member too that her outfits wouldn't pass). That aside, I would think that this "mum" role is probably her first (unless someone can point out to me that I'm wrong please?)And one of the key reasons, is how Singapore gets portrayed in another Bollywood film, after the comedy De Dana Dan last year, which didn't really move around much other than for one of the song sequences and being stuck mostly within the confines of the Pan Pacific Hotel. Then there was Krrish which also starred Priyanka Chopra, making this at least her 2nd film foray to our sunny island. In this film, Singapore's good enough to become that substitute for California's beaches thanks to Sentosa, and I always get a good laugh out of how our cabbies get unwittingly portrayed as dishonest cheats who take tourists for a ride around expressways and the city area no thanks to the juxtaposition of scenes involving recognizable roads and landmarks. Or that this travel scene would become one of those sponsored tourism campaign videos.While identification of landmarks use adds to the fun, such as the UOB skyscraper doubling up as the HQ of Pinnacle Software, and various shots in Challenger, Clarke and Robertson Quay areas, what I found more interesting is how, so far, there's rarely a depiction of HDB apartments in movies shot here by Bollywood. Everyone's pretty loaded in their ability to afford a swanky condo (at the Kallang Bay area, given the view out of their windows) in Krrish's case, or landed property in this one, that cost a few million dollars at the very least. So while local films tend to depict the accommodation here using what some 80% of the locals live in, films from abroad may, perhaps due to non-familiarity, opt to go by the more conventional (sometimes unrealistic) route of the "house" concept.In any case, Pyaar Impossible is about the improbable love between a beauty and a geek, and Uday Chopra's story is rather straightforward, revenge of the nerd type, which somehow works fine as a magical fantasy romantic story that's kept simple and effective, without much fuss. There are essentially three story arcs, one which is the unattainable love that Abhay seeks, the second being Abhay as The Nanny / Butler / Confidant to Alisha's household, and the third giving cause for Abhay to visit Singapore, in search of the swindler Sidhu/Varun (Dino Morea).With its catchy tunes and song and dance routine, it hit the nail on the head when the theme song succinctly dealt with the notion of how superficial it actually is when we talk about attraction, but always fail to admit so. In that respect, Pyaar Impossible laid its cards out on the table honestly even though it had to succumb to formula, and I'd pick this romantic comedy over any Hollywood one any day.

Well, i didn't expect it to be, but it was brilliant and mind blowing! The performances and direction were fantastic! UDAY CHOPRA's screenplay was good, his dialogues seemed very fresh, and ordinary (not in a bad way) but the dialogues had a realistic look rather than a filmy look! The story was not really original and has been shown in Hindi movies before, Rab ne bana di jodi, Jaan-e-man, etc! But the way JUGAL HANSRAJ handled the subject, should be appreciated! His direction was fantastic! PRIYANKA CHOPRA'S acting got better than before and her acting was really good! BUT THE BEST OF ALL WAS THE LITTLE GIRL WHO PLAYED PRIYANKA'S DAUGHTER! I think she's JUGAL HANSRAJ's daughter because she looks like him! Her acting was the best thing in the movie! UDAY CHOPRA's acting was classic! SALIM SULAIMAN's music was nice! Background score was good! DINO MOREA was good as a villain.POINTS.DIRECTION 10/10.ACTING 10/10.DIALOGUES 10/10.SCREENPLAY 10/10.MUSIC 10/10.LYRICS 10/10.CINEMATOGRAPHY 10/10.Overall, You should go watch the movie for sure! If you like watching realistic films with full entertainment, then this is the one for you! If you like films with a message, this one is for you! If you like good cinema, this is for you! In short, this is for all of us.Therefore, GO WATCH IT IN THEATRES!!!!! DVD IS NOT THAT FUN, TRUST ME!! I WATCHED IT FIRST DAY FIRST SHOW AND IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!! :)
