A romantic-comedy, this film featured Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Preity Zinta in lead roles. It was written and directed by Shirish Kunder. The film minted a worldwide collection of Rs. 45.8 crore with domestic net collections being Rs. 24.9 crore and gross ones being Rs. 33.68 crore. The overseas collections were Rs. 12.12 crore. The film was released on Diwali alongside Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Don’, which bore a wider mass appeal. Additionally, this was Kunder’s directorial debut which was criticized for its “meta,” theatrical, and musical approach. The narrative was way ahead of its time with its experimental format featuring heavily stylized sets, innovative VFX, and Broadway-like musical numbers. Also, the screenplay and dial shifted gears from comedy to drama, which failed to woo the audience.
