Pyaar Impossible!, a review by Tom


     Pyaar Impossible! (2010/India)
IMDb | Wikipedia

Yash Raj Films Home Entertainment (United Kingdom)
Director:Jugal Hansraj
Writing:Uday Chopra (Story By), Usay Chopra (Screenwriter)
Length:141 min.
Video:Widescreen 2.35
Audio:Hindi: Dolby Digital 5.1, Hindi: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1
Subtitles:Arabic, English

Stars:
Uday Chopra as Abhay
Priyanka Chopra as Alisha
Dino Morea as Sidhu/Varun
Anupam Kher as Abhay's Father
Rahul Vohra as C.P.

Plot:
In Ankert University, California, Alisha (Priyanka Chopra) is the name of that dream everyone wished came true. The most beautiful girl on campus, she makes hearts flutter like leaves in the wind. A snap of her fingers and a line of boys, waiting on her every whim. Everybody Loves Alisha!

It is no surprise then that Abhay (Uday Chopra) loves her too. More than his computer programs and MAC stores he thinks of Alisha. Who is Abhay? Abhay is a nerdy, awkward, socially challenged, bespectacled geek of the college who is so far removed from her world that she doesn't even know that people like him actually exist.

This is a love story of impossible proportions, how can a man like Abhay ever hope to be with a woman like Alisha, and therein lies the story...

Abhay has quietly loved Alisha all his life. One day he musters up enough courage to go and express his true feelings to her and realizes that it is never gonna happen. He comes to terms with the fact that Alisha is a Princess and he is just a Geek. That is when their ways eventually part. Later, their paths cross again, as Abhay is busy trying to launch his career. Fate again brings him face to face with the woman of his dreams, Alisha. Will Abhay have the strength to believe in himself and attempt to achieve what he never thought possible?

Will Alisha ever be able to see the man behind those glasses, beyond what her idea of the perfect man is? Is everything fate or can one take destiny in their own hands? Is this possible or just Pyaar Impossible?

My Thoughts:
I didn't expect much from this movie. Just a run of the mill romantic comedy. This is what I got and I enjoyed it more than expected. Prinyanka Chopra usually is nothing more than a (really) pretty face but an average actress. But since I saw her in What's Your Rashee I had more respect for her acting abilities. She is now one of those actresses I really enjoy in rom-coms but I still am not sure for other kinds of movies.
I had a little doubt about Uday Chopra in the lead. Before this movie I never really enjoyed his appearences. But he did a good job and it really fit him. Luckily they used his geeky look here very well. Luckily they refrained in this movie to show of his body (like they did in Dhoom 2), which just looks out of place with his geeky head.
I also enjoyed the songs in this one, even though I wouldn't count any of these is classic material.

My Thoughts:
This is a movie I have on a Triple Feature DVD release called Gritty Horror Tales. Basically the story of a mother going psycho on her children during a bad case of postpartum depression. For the most part I liked the movie a lot... but there is one downfall for me here. And unfortunately it is a pretty big downfall. I just didn't care about any of the characters. This did take away from the film some. Other then that... the intensity of the story was good. It kept my interest through-out once it got started. Though the first about 20 minutes is a bit slow. Over-all the movie is worth watching.

My Thoughts:
I recently watched this season on On-Demand... and really didn't think too much of it. There was several people from the previous season not in this season. And since it is such a short season no sooner I got used to the new people the series was over. But I was able to get this set (to complete the series in my collection) through a trade I was doing for some duplicate titles in my collection. So I went for it. Thankfully on second viewing I was able to enjoy it more then I did the first time around since I had gotten used to the new characters the first time I watched the season. While I did enjoy it more... it is still my least favorite season of the entire series. Not really shocked that it was canceled after only 13 episodes... but I would have liked to of seen a full season non-the-less.
