Newcomer Anushka gets a really well etched character to perform and it despite being her first film, she comes across an absolute natural.
Shah Rukh Khan is simply superb as first the shy Suri and then the flamboyant, full of energy, Raj. But Adi’s terrific dialogues deserve a special applause for touching the right chords. What follows is a criss-cross between some really well penned and executed scenes and some really drab moments with badly placed songs acting as speed breakers. But as SRK’s character’s transformation comes in the grip slowly loosens and you start feeling restless with the pace slumping down considerably. The script has its moments and master craftsman Adi keeps you engaged initially with some really beautifully handled moments between SRK and Anushka. Rab Ne has been definitely amongst the most awaited films of 2008 and there have been great expectations riding on it especially because it is Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge maker Aditya Chopra’s comeback film after a long gap of 8 years. Suri is now again in a fix but then he finally decides to take a bold step But what happens is Taani who is unaware of Raj being Suri himself ends up falling in love with Raj. He is well aided with his childhood buddy Bobby (Pathak) who brings on the physical transformation in him. The rest of the film is about how Suri transforms himself into a very hep flirtatious dude Raj to win her love using a dancing school as a platform for his antics. The shy, somewhat geeky Surinder has already fallen for Taani since the first time he has seen her but alls his hopes crash when Taani tells him the day they arrive at his house that she won’t be able to give him any love as that’s one feeling she has lost forever with the sudden turn of events in her life. Taani obeys his last wish and thus begins the start of this extraordinary love story between an otherwise ordinary jodi.
Her father, a retired professor, on his death bed requests her to marry his old favorite student, Surinder Shahani (SRK). Destiny plays a cruel joke on an extremely enthusiastic young girl Taani (Anushka) as she loses her fiancé and his family in a road accident on the eve of her marriage.
