After SRK's big hit Kal Ho Na Ho, I anxiously awaited the release of Main Hoon Na. What a disappointment...
Although I have admired Farah Khan's work in other movies, she has put so much singing and dancing into this film that the plot takes a back seat. After a while, I just lost interest in the story. Sushmita Sen, albeit stunning, has little dialog and undulates her way through the movie. I can't say that's bad acting (she undulates well) but rather bad directing/writing. And all those circular camera motions with the Matrix moves just don't seem to fit.
I realize this is Ms. Khan's first directing job, but I'd just like to say she'd be a better director if she were as original in her story and cinematography ideas as she is in her choreography. 4 out of 10
