The plot makes the movie suffer here. The performances are pretty decent considering the plot again. Arjun Rampal does a good job and is good at action sequences. Diya Mirza is really good as well and she should get better pictures in the future. They make a good on-screen couple for sure.

Sarena then falling for Jai, has him join her in the search for her real identity and mother. She meets her caretacker Namrata (Nafisa Ali) and she tells Sarena of her true being. Meanwhile Vivek is doing his best to stop her from finding out about her real mother. You know how the rest goes.

The film is predictable but it is still average. The acting is good, Gulshan Grover plays another role here where he is impressive and not the typical villian. Amisha and Jimmy are also good in there roles. Amisha gives Kareena a good threat here and Jimmy proves his acting skills. The plot is the only weak thing here and it does hurt the movie.

The movie again, isn't something that is really great, but I would watch it if there was nothing else to do.

Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham (known as K3G) is 'all about loving your parents' says Karan Johar. It exemplifies the stern determination Indian culture demands on the relationship between parents and children, in particular father and son, and addresses the fundamental concept of family within a traditional Indian household where egos collide regularly and the stubbornness of elders can prove disaster for all involved.

Performance wise - Shah Rukh is the pick of the bunch, a awe inspiring performance from a deadly performer, in Mohabbatein he was over awed by Amitabh in certain scenes but in K3G his screen presence matched that of Bachchan's and the magic that unfolded on screen was second to none. Throw in Hrithik Roshan's sensitive portrayal as the youngest son and the result is astounding. Three devastating performances from three diverse actors belonging to three different generations is a historic piece of direction. The female cast consisting of Jaya Bachchan, Kajol and Kareena Kapoor, is another example of three performers from three different generations coming together, Jaya Bachchan is quietly dignified in her performance whilst Kajol is at her best, with a refreshing role. Kareena also impresses with a more than average performance.

Though clearly K3G has moral points to make, the cast performances concocted by Karan Johar, speak soundly as his Spielberg like direction continues to impress masterfully.

Kamal Hassan, as always, succeeds in impressing us with his performance. Always fulfilling the requirements of his reputation, Kamal really did a wonderful job making and acting in the film. Raveena Tandon as Tejwaswini, also does a wonderful job in convincing us of her character's role. Manisha Koirala makes an unneccessary special appearance, her role is limited ofcourse.

Abhay is different from all its predecessors in that it effectively shows us the darker side of Abhay without commercializing it. Its very gory come to think of it. Some might say it goes too far in getting its point across, but I disagree. The point would not have been made if it hadn't gone so far. The film is impressive and deserves our attention since it is Kamal Hassan's honest work at hand.
