A rich jerk who is completely unlikable is forced to marry a woman he doesn't like in order to inherit a huge fortune. He does marry the woman, but pretty much lives his own separate playboy lifestyle. So, according to this film, it's apparently up to her to convince her jerk of a husband to love her by tricking him.
"Dulha Mil Gaya" is not so much a movie and more an assault on your senses. The first 20 minutes is like a giant music video...with even less depth. It's so self-consciously hip that it doesn't matter that there are folks who might watch the film who are older than 25 and who don't want to watch such a loud and brash story...and so when the story begins, you find you just don't care. This is because while it's supposed to be a romance, it's hard to build a romance atop of such shallow, obnoxious and rich young jerks....and the film abounds with jerks, not real people. In fact, I found myself hoping against hope that the music would stop and folks would act like REAL people...and after a while I just gave up. Overall, a film designed for a 16 year-old with severe ADHD....loud, brash and unlikable.
By the way, do NOT assume I hate Bollywood films. I've seen hundreds and adored most of them. But I have found one style that is very off-putting (much like this film) where the characters are just so shallow and annoying and cocky that you tire of them very quickly. It's a shame that Shak Rukh Khan, a very good actor, got involved in this dopey project...he's just better than this.
