Fanaa (2006)

This movie revolves around the life of Zooni, role played by Kajol who is a blind woman in this movie, who travels to Delhi with a dance troupe without the permission of her parents and travels alone there. Once she arrives to Delhi, her travel guide, Rehan (Aamir Khan) has a liking for her and flirts with her the most, but her friends do not approve of him. Eventually these two, Rehan and Zooni fall in love and Rehan wants her to regain her vision, He gets her admitted to this local hospital and Zooni invites her parents to see this miracle of her regaining her vision and to meet her lover as well. But no one is aware of the big secret which Rehan is hiding from everyone including Zooni. Then before Rehan can go pick up everyone from the hospital, they get the message that he has been killed in some bomb explosion on his way there. After this, there is a 5 year leap in the movie and shows that Zooni regains her vision and gives birth to a baby boy, Rehan jr, but this is where the climax comes altogether. One day someone knocks on their door, the man claims to be Major Rajvir Singh and they let him in because of all of his wounds which need to be taken care of. They are not aware of the havoc this man will cause because he is the same man who fell in love with Zooni five years ago. It will be interesting once viewers find out what Rajvir Singh has come back for and when finally Zooni's family find out his true identity.

In this movie, there are some beautiful songs such as; Chand Safarish and Mere Haath Mein, even though these are romantic type songs they will never get old. The story in this movie is very different, fits for the actors/actresses, and it is one complex love story with a few twists. Both halves of this movie are very well made, but the second half contains more complexity, twists and better acting by Kajol, mainly. I have to say the best acting in this movie is by these three main actors; Rishi Kapoor, Kajol and Tabu. I would say Aamir Khan but at times I did not like his acting and his long hair as well. The rating I would give this movie is an 8.5/10, a few things I would want to change is the first half of the movie, maybe the lead actor- sorry Aamir, and add another twist to it. This movie is very deep in how it shows the courage you need to make these kind of choices, such as between what to choose, love or duty and making us ask how much can we forgive at the end? The few genres in this movie include; drama, romance and thriller. Overall, I would say give it a watch, most likely you will watch it till the end but I would say before watching it listen to the songs and see the chemistry between Kajol and Aamir.
