It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Raja Hindustani is one of the best film that Aamir Khan has played in. The film offers very good music, acting and good chemistry. The film has good plot but that could be better and some of the scene needs to be improved. I liked Uddit Narayan's voice on the film (well done for that). The film is like old 80s - 90s romance film. And the film was some good jokes filled in.But the film is worth of while with Aaamir Kahn and Karisma Kapoor chemistry. would recommend it to watch it once.

I can't believe the stupidity of this film. So, the extremely rich heroine falls in love with and actually marries a taxi driver!!! a.k.a. tourist guide. I seriously have nothing against the poor, I'm poor myself but how realistic is this plot. Not only that, she settles with him in a village!! Karishma Kapoor hams through the film. I wanted to shut my ears every time she laughed. I couldn't believe that the ever lovable and chirpy girl had such an arrogant expression on her face throughout the film. Archana Puran Singh was no less annoying.The plot is too dumb to even speak of. And the cheesy dialogs like "haye main mar gayi" made me want to run away. It was pathetic even for the nineties. The jokes are lame and mostly in bad taste. I wonder what audience this film wished to cater to.Yet, I am giving this painful three hour film two stars. One for the excellent acting by Aamir Khan and Suresh Oberoi. Aamir deserved the filmfare for his earnestness, no matter what people say. After all, it takes courage to work in a chaos of a story such as this. Suresh Oberoi is a lovable father, despite his 'eccentricities' (who would want their heiress daughter to marry a taxi driver?) as always.The other star is for the exceptional music that has stayed with me till date. Kumar Sanu, Alka Yagnik and Udit Narayan really made the music come alive despite the bad presentation on screen. A memorable score by Nadeem Shravan, and the film's only saving grace.Give it a skip, hear the audio though.

Some may find Raja Hindustani as the same tired and worn out 90's plot... but I happen to love it. Aamir lights up the screen with a great character, Raja Hindustani, a poor villager who drives a taxi who falls in love with a rich girl from Mumbai.The rest of the story, I'm sure you can guess, as it is very predictable and nothing new. However, songs are really great, and story is captivating.I will say the ending is stupid and Johnny Lever is as annoying as ever this time as Raja's annoying sardar friend. Most of the film I wanted him to drop dead of heart attack. But he never does...But either way this is just a fun masala film with Aamir in the lead. It's not too serious, it's a great time pass and a good love story. If you don't get your hopes up for something mind blowing, you won't be let down.

This has got to be one of the greatest Indian movies you will ever see. Yes, some of the acting is over the top, the first 15 minutes of the film drag before the story kicks in and sure, some points are laboured for Western audiences. However, petty criticisms aside, I keep coming back to this flick year after year as my all time favourite Hindi language film (after Khuda Gawah perhaps). Karishma Kapoor in particular is a real treat to watch - beautiful and intelligent, and above all a very talented and convincing actress. I am genuinely curious that such a breathtakingly gorgeous lady did not make an effort to enter Hollywood or the English language movies at all. Perhaps the most outstanding feature of the movie is the fantastic music. Catchy and hypnotic to the point where you cannot really ever forget the main motifs and themes. I can guarantee that even if you don't like the film that much the song & dance numbers will either enchant or entrance. You will never in your lifetime forget the gypsy dance number. Forget the art house stuff and enjoy pure Bollywood at its best.
