    Storyline

    Edit
    London-based Dr. Manoj Sharma returns home to Delhi, and in the company of his parents, Kishan and Anju, as well as several others, travels to Chaman Ganj, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh to meet his prospective bride, Tanuja Trivedi. He approves of her, informs his elders, and they begin preparations for the marriage. He gets a rude awakening when Tanuja tells him that she already has a boyfriend and plans to marry him even against her parents' wishes. Manoj informs his parents, and they start seeking other girls for him--in vain, as his heart is set on Tanuja--and he prepares to return home unmarried. Manoj and Tanuja are fated to meet again in Kapurthala, Punjab, while attending the marriage of Jaspreet Singh Jassi and Payal Sinha. While Manoj hopes to win Tanuja's heart, he will face more rejection when she enlists his assistance to elope with another male. —rAjOo (gunwanti@hotmail.com)

    • Trivia
      Bally Sagoo had a remix version of "Jugni" by Malkiet Singh in the album Star Crazy in 1991.
    • Goofs
      When Manu Sharma goes to Raja Avasthi's house for the first time to see Raja's sister for marriage, Raja's father introduces another girl, Sapna, to Manu's father as Raja's fiancée. Sapna is never seen or mentioned again after that, but later Raja is seen trying to marry Tanu in a Court in Kapurthala. It should also be noted that Raja was the one to send 4-5 goons (via another friend Ravi Kishan) to scare Manu when he first reaches Kanpur Station. It is confusing because Raja is already engaged to be married to Sapna by then.

    In Love with Manu, not so much Tanu.
    Movie was very much put on the tanu's perspective towards life, marriage, boys and manu but out of all of these Manu and his genuinity stands out through out the movie. Tanu seems dumb at times to unnotice or consider Manu and we may tend to go to the state where its tanus loss if she doesnt find interest in manu and his world. Overall movie was very well made and it hits the audience anxiety because it is shown from tanu's perspective. Because almost everyone will hate so much by the time of interval that only manu bears all her tantrum's. Acting wise kangana was very very good and i think this is the first film of hers where she proved herself with her acting. Madhavan was as usually a best fit into the character. Songs where good enough. Overall a Good Cinema.
