Editor's Review:
If this movie was successful its coz even the most beautiful woman is full of self doubts. Women are the most insecure creatures when it comes to their looks. She could be sporting the best brands of dress and accessories and still feel lacking. The movie is about a radio vet/consultant who discovers true love and in the process overcomes her insecurities about her looks. Love can do it everytime. Wish every woman can find the kind of love that makes her feel beautiful in every sense. Feminists would like women to believe that a man in her life is not necessary to make her feel good. Mebbe true, but science, physiology, biology and all else tells her she needs a man and the best would be one who can make her feel beautiful even in rags.
After all that digression let me tell you about the movie. The vet in all her insecurities gets her best friend to date the man she loves-but-is-scared-to-tell. The man in question has spoken to the vet through her radio shows (a la Munna bhai style). He likes her sense of humour and her love for animals and is attracted to her because of these qualities. The vet limited by popular definition of beauty cannot bring herself to understand his love for her. So when the man asks for a meeting she sends her friend a classic beauty by all definitions. The man in true fairy tale love story style realizes that the lady with him seems to lack the fire of the woman he has spoken to in the radio shows. How things turn out after this makes the story. The movie is not special in any way. It just appeals to the romantic dreams of most women.
