I simply love this song from Main, Meri Patni aur Woh (Me, My Wife and Him). Kya song hai, kya melody hai, kya lyrics hain and kya picturisation hai. Just amazing! Not to mention I liked the movie too a lot. its kind of funny in the begining and middle and takes serious turn during later part. A must watch IMO, great performances by Rajpal Yadav and Rituparna Sengupta. Rituparna looks soo beautiful in the movie.

Here is the song...I just love it. icon_smile.gif

I've never heard of Main, Meri Patni aur Woh (but then again, there's a lot of other Bollywood movies I've never heard of either). It seems similar to Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon (another underrated movie), so I might give this one a try.

Another underrated movie I thought was Apne. I liked that movie better than Chak De India, although that might be because I'm a boxing fan.

No, it is not like Main Madhuri Dixit Banna chahti hoon. Its about a man (who is slightly on the shorter side) who gets married to a beautiful and taller woman, he feels insecured about her all the time and then the story unfolds. A must watch in my opinion.

I didn't mean that the storyline was similar, but that it was made by the same director and has the same lead actor.

The only ones I've seen from that list are Lamhe, Page 3, Dor, and Khosla Ka Ghosla.

I used to really like Lamhe as a kid. Page 3 and Dor are well-directed movies that deal with serious issues. Khosla Ka Ghosla is a good comedy but it was a bit anti-climatic.
