It does not happen very often that i feel like walking out of the movie hall before the film gets over. I can stand the worst of the movies, but this one had me wanting to go out.
As a friend joked during the movie that we could have driven down to Bangalore in those 4 hours we were at the theater. The best part during those 4 hours was the interval! Need i say more about the movie.
6 stories and 3 and half hours was a bit too much... the plot didnt seem to move at all until the last few minute... Saving grace were the jokes cracked by people around, one of them was that we escaped with just 10 bucks per story and 5 rupees as tips ;) Luckily saved some money there, got Rs. 65 ticket.
In fact there were only 5 and half stories... the best story was screened only for 5 to 7 minutes in total, that of Isha Koppikar-Sohail Khan. I was even getting irritated by Priyanka Chopra in the movie, this doesn't happen often.
Only thing good in the movie according to me was Akshaye Khanna s acting... he played the role of confused bugger with some panache.
I would rate this movie 1/5... 1 for the confused Akshaye Khanna.

A bit of an unrelated comment.. While we're on the topic of bad movies.. can you review 'Jaani Dushman' too ? ;)
@Megha: Why they take up this challenging task of showing so many things in 3 hours is something i m stil to fathom... Why huge star cast??
Let this review be pending but wil do it for sure ;)
Agreed man………
I feel Veeraswamy was better than Salaam-e-ishq
Finally finally saw it..inspite of advice not to watch it :) I'd say yeah ..it just dragged on and on ..Another thing i didn't really understand was...all the other 5 couples' stories are interrelated in some way.. but the isha-sohail story doesnt even fit in with the others.. sohail played the despo's role to perfection ..first time he actually looked convincing in any role! My fav was govinda's role though ...especially the "Maidam" part!!
I am happy I have not watched it yet. Surely will not do that in future also, not in the theater for sure.
Does this friend of yours [bangalore trip guy] is the one I am thinking of . The taxi driver with a qualis. ;)
And know what I can leave any movie for not seeing Priyanka. She is just too irritating.
@navneeth: i m yet to see Veeraswamy :(
@megha: the Sohail story also could have been interrelated... i dont know why director decided against it... 'Maidem' ;)
@prits: Give this movie a skip! and u have identified the friend correctly :)
