Years back he made 'Hum Aapke Hain Kaun' and since there
has been no looking back. There have been thrillers,
socials, actioners, love stories, comedies, horror
flicks.....practically every genre of films that keep
coming up with every passing year, but one genre that is
most regular is a feel good family outing that has been
devised to perfection by Sooraj Barjatya. Hence it
doesn't come as a surprise when the filmmaker names his
upcoming film as 'Vivah'. There have been films with
titles like 'Shaadi No. 1', 'Shaadi Karke Phans Gaya
Yaar', 'Shaadi Se Pehle', 'Shaadi Ka Laddoo' and many
more but no one has attempted a title like 'Vivah'.
'Vivah' - a simple word yet so meaningful. A word that
minds two souls together and brings to fore a universal
concept. And the young boy and girl who would soon be
tied in this relationship are Prem [Shahid Kapoor] and
Poonam [Amrita Rao]. |

Son of a rich Delhi based businessman Mr. Harishchandra
[Anupam Kher], he has his family values intact and in
spite of being brought up in the capital, he hasn't
forgotten the aspects of respect for the elders and love
for the young ones. A student of journalism and
literature from abroad, he has joined the family
business and is one of the most eligible bachelors
around. Poonam is a girl who could just be the perfect
match for Prem. Complimenting him at every step, even
she carries the traits similar to Prem. Rooted in
traditional values and carrying the respect and love for
the ones close to her in the heart, Poonam is beautiful,
charming, graceful and yet so simple and subtle. |

She lives with her chacha Krishna Kant [Aloknath] in Madhupur (near
Mathura) who dotes on her in the same way as he loves his daughter
Rajni a.k.a Choti [Amrita Prakash]. She has been adopted after the
demise of her parents and though her chacha doesn't differentiate
between her and choti, her chachi Rama [Seema Biswas] has still not
wholeheartedly accepted her even after all these years. For her the
love for Choti always has always been an obstacle for her love for
Poonam. Reason? Choti is a happy go lucky girl who is not as
beautiful or gorgeous as Poonam which is always a point of
contention for Rama. Poonam is aware of this fact and always tries
her best to get into the good books of her chachi. To her relief,
Choti is the best of her pals and has always openly demonstrated her
affection for her
And now the time will come when Prem and Poonam would soon be on
their way to get united. Kehte hain naa ki jodiyan upar waala khud
banata hai! And for that he has his men to do the task on earth. One
such man was Bhagatji [Mohan Joshi], a common friend of
Harishchandra and Krishna Kant. A jeweller by profession, he is a
gem of a person who is known for his selfless approach towards
thinking for the best of those close to him. And now, after being
impressed by the conduct of Poonam, he believes that she is the best
match for Prem. He proposes to bring the two families together and
arranges for the meeting where the girl, boy and their families
could come together. Prem, looking at getting started with his dad's
business is a little reluctant since he thinks that there are still
some more years to go before he can establish himself and be
prepared for the marriage. But on being gently persuaded by his well
wishers, that include his elder brother Sunil [Samir Soni] and his
loving bhabhi Bhaavna [Lataa Saberwal], he agrees. His thought is
simple - to meet Poonam and then decide about the future course of
action.
They meet and it just takes a conversation that makes Prem and
Poonam realize that they are made for each other. To the delight of
their families, they both agree to tie the knot and get engaged. 6
months more and they would eventually get married. And from here
begins the journey from engagement to marriage. A journey which
brings with itself some of the most memorable moments for a couple
which is about to be united forever.
A journey that is so precious that it cannot be bought or relived.
A journey that is so divine, spiritual and heartwarming. Prem and
Poonam get on this journey and discover each other....and
themselves! But is life always so beautiful? Because just after 6
months flew by and the magical moment of their marriage knocked
their doors, they found themselves facing a crisis. A crisis that
would put their love through a trial by fire! A heart warming tale
of unconditional love, 'Vivah' emphasis on the beauty of the
institution of marriage in an era when tales of infidelity are being
narrated on a regular basis. Also starring Barjatya regular Mohnish
Behl in a special appearance, 'Vivah' has lyrics and music by
veteran Ravindra Jain and is slated for a November 10 release. |
