Teri Meri Kahaani (Bollywood DVD With English Subtitles)

I had to return the movie because it did not have English subtitles
I love the movie. You will have to have a Blu-ray or a DVD player that
has sub-title options. The movie still did not have the sub-titles.
I am keeping the movie because of the sub-title option on my Blu-Ray, because I require
the English sub-titles.
The marketing and package say English sub-titles, it is not on the DVD?

"I told you that's the Facebook guy."
3.5 out of 5 stars for TERI MERI KAHAANI.

Sometimes a movie just begs for the flowery stuff, and then when it's a Bollywood picture? Fuggetaboutit... TERI MERI KAHAANI - which, I think, means "Our Story" - posits that true love perseveres, that it is everlasting, or, at least, that it lasts three lifetimes. Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra strive to convince you of such. This film spans three eras, with each era featuring a pair of lovers as portrayed by Shahid and Priyanka. The story unfolds not in chronological order.

It opens in Bombay in 1960 as breezy but unemployed musician Govind (Shahid) bumps into famous Bollywood actress Ruksar (Priyanka) on a Poona-to-Bombay rail coach. Their flirtation persists all the way to the Bollywood studio, but then is derailed by an unexpected love triangle. As things look their bleakest, the camera cuts away...

...to present day, 2012, in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, as college students Radha Chopra (Priyanka)...

Waited So Long
I'd actually give this movie a wavering 4 1/2 to 5 stars. It was very good and I enjoyed it but I think I built it up a little too high in my mind while waiting for it so I'm not fully adjusted to what it is yet. I've only had time to watch it twice so far. My favorite of the love stories is that of Javed and Aradhana, which might be because I adore the song and dance number from Humse Pyaar Kar Le Tu. The other song and dance numbers are wonderful too but this one is the cream of the crop for me. La sigh! I would recommend it for light hearted fun and romance, with some interesting insights here and there.
