Very good
The two pakistani reviewers who dissed this film have probably not even bothered to watch it. This is an excellent film which takes great pains to show the senseless suffering of the Muslim Kashmiris, and what makes them turn to the arms of the terrorists. And Pakistan is not even mentioned once in the whole movie.
Hrithik turns in another great performance, Preity Zinta is beautiful as always, and there's a good supporting cast, aside from Jackie Shroff who overacts horribly.
Unusually for a Bollywood DVD, there is an option for an English dubbed soundtrack, and even more surprisingly, the dubed version is not bad at all - in some cases better than the original (cough, cough - Jackie Shroff).

Hausfrau
Well made film revolving around the political situation of Kashmir as experienced by a young boy. The boy is orphaned when security forces try to capture a terrorist. He is then recruited by the same terrorist organisation who utilise his hatred for the forces for their own means. Good songs too.
