Khushi at first unsettles you

Boney Kapoor-produced Khushi is the story of two young people who love each other but cannot bring themselves to speak out their hearts to one another.

The movie?s story, although a bit fresh, is full of red-herrings and jagged sequences that seems to have been put forcibly to lend various moods into the narrative. Yet, there are certain moments in the film that make you laugh and other moments that reduce you to tears.

Kareena Kapoor once again proves she has no match on screen. There may be other actresses who can do this or that better. But no one can do what she can.

But the real surprise of Khushi is Fardeen Khan. After years of lethargic performances, Fardeen suddenly springs a delightfully bright and contoured performance. In all their scenes together, Fardeen matches his scene-stealing co-star to make a place for himself among the most endearing star-actors on the scene today. His body language in some places is truly a revelation.

Khushi at first unsettles you. We've never before seen a romantic couple doing the things Kareena and Fardeen do, and we'll never again see a film quite like this. Better ones, worse ones, yes. But none quite like Khushi.
