Chandni movie has an amazing performance by everyone in the cast especially the three main leads,love the performance of the late sridevi,she really looks so much pretty in the movie,the movie has amazing choreography,and is shot beautifully.Miss you Sridevi.
In an author backed role, Sridevi excelled like a master and owned the screen like a goddess. She held her own and emoted so well in each of the situations she comes across playing the character. Such is the grit and determination with which she played the role that we cannot ever imagine anybody else fitting in the role of Chandni.
Watch this movie only for her and you will be disappointed.

Hello all,
I am here to point out an error on Anu Kapoor who has written the story of the triangle love story "Chandni".
Chandni is a story of a girl from a small town in Delhi who falls in love with the rich boy Rohit. But though their love blossoms, obstacles comes in the form of disapproval from Rohit's parents. When things get better fate plays a different game on them. Rohit meets with an accident and is left handicapped in a wheel chair. Chandni like a dutiful lover becomes his strength and pillar. But Rohit cannot bear seeing her waste her life on him as he cannot protect her. He breaks the relationship. A broken hearted Chandni finds solace in a new city with a new job. She slowly pecks her withered life.
Another man comes into her life in the form of Lalit, his boss and well wisher. Will she be able to accept his proposal? The movie is worth a watch.
If you did not find the story interesting enough. watch it for the sheer magic of Sridevi. She will never disappoint you. She is just magic.
Now, coming to the correction. I would like to tell that Chandni and Rohit is not married so there is no question of them going for a honeymoon as mentioned in the review of Mr Anu Kapoor. What he saw was just a dream sequence in the form of a song, nothing else.
I request to pay a little more attention while watching movies especially when you are going to write a review on it. Thank you.

Chandni like its name,is one of the best and greatest movies of all time. I can define Chandni in just one word,Sridevi. Chandni is one the most iconic female characters of Indian cinema and it belongs to Sridevi. You can fall in love with Sridevi after watching her beauty,innocence,charm,performance and expressions in this classic. Sridevi in white shalwar kameez surrounded with red roses can make you sleepless. Sridevi in her iconic chiffon saris defines the true and divine beauty. Yash Chopra immortalized Sridevi by casting her in and as Chandni. No doubt Sridevi is the heart and soul of the movie. Her dance and expressions in the song "Mere hathon mein" and and tandav dance are just beyond perfection. Her ability to look romantic and emotional in same scene is something exceptional. Moreover,Vinod Khanna and Rishi Kapoor also delivered good performances but are totally overshadowed by Sridevi. The cute scenes of Sridevi and Vinod Khanna are must watch. Overall Chandni is completely a Sridevi film. Chandni makes Sridevi everyone's sweetheart. Beautiful direction by Yash Chopra and outstanding music by Shiv-Hari. Go and watch Chandni,you will also fall in love with Sridevi. A standing ovation to Sridevi for giving us Chandni and Yash Chopra and his team for creating Chandni. Chandni o meri Chandni. An all time classic and greatest.

A remarkable film with Sridevi as the winner. She is just amazing. This movie showed her acting skills at its paramount. Be it a village belle, a westernized dancing girl, a assertive young women handling opponents as a matured adult, she took the film acting at a different level. This is a movie about three people, Chandni ( Sridevi), Rohit ( Rishi Kapoor ) and Lalit ( Vonod Khanna ) entangled in a triangular love story. Yash Chopra, famous film maker and younger brother of the legendary B.R. Chopra created a masterpiece of a love story surrounding these three human beings. Both Chandni and Rohit's encounter at the beginning of the movie kept us entertained with some good songs and frolics of two young lovers, the story took the turn to more serious situations with Rohits accident and eventual separation from Chandni. Sridevi showed some magnificent dance performance specially the one in white clothing in the open field without any song. That was a super show. The movie has quite a few songs but they were all very well placed in the story and performed very well both in playback and actual playing. Rishi Kapoor showed a lot of enthusiasm and zeal in portraying young Rohit as also Vinod Khanna in his more serious role. Sridevi expressed her self so well in all the different moods specially when she meets Rishi Kapoor at the door of her house first time after their separation, she expressed her surprise and emotions extremely well. It was a special surprise to see Waheeda Rehman as the mother of Vinod Khanna in a very well deserved role. Overall this a great movie of the late eighties Bollywood and it is a must see for all Sridevi fans. I gave it a nine out of ten.
