Kyon Ki...

Though the Priyadarshan directed KYON KI is a good movie (what i partically loved was the unconventional ending, Salman Khan's performance and of course Rimmi), if you want to see the difference between a good movie and an absolute classic than watch the original instead. Though Priyadarshan denied his film being a remake, it actually is. This movie is a remake of one of the three black and white movies Rajesh Khanna made in his career. I am talking about the Hemant Kumar produced and Asit Sen directed film KHAMOSHI. This film starred Rajesh Khanna, Dharmenra, Waheeda Rehman and Devan Varma. Music was by Hemant Kumar and the film has two great evergreen songs : WOH SHAAM KUCH AJEEB THI (by Kishore Kumar) and TUM PUKARLO (by hemant Kumar). Even the ending (though not a happy ending here either) is far better and more realistic then Kyon Ki.
