She always gets me teary eyed when I watch that scene right before the song, tujhe yaad na meri aaye..where she thinks he's confessing his love for her meanwhile it's for that Tina...😆..it gets to me every time and I give full credit to Kajol because she really acted so effortlessly. As SRK would say, she only does a scene when she believes in it..and if she doesn't you can always tell. I believe this scene would be an example of the former. I find her to be a natural...in particularly, I think she has some of best crying scenes..she does it so well. Oh and KKHH despite it's cheesiness etc..it's still one of those films which you can't help but adore because I think most of us grew up watching that film. I know I did..and although I may not agree with everything KJo tried presenting..I'll always have a soft spot for KKHH, regardless. K3G on the other hand was indeed more about the nok-joks as you said..😆 Also, KKHH had more of a soul..probably because it was Karan's first film and he put some sincere effort into it...and it honestly does show. I didn't see much of that with K3G...it was kind of all over the place. 😆lol just saw the deleted scenes.They should've included the scene you're talking about..it's cute!..and, exactly - their scenes/dialogues no matter how cheesy or lame they may seem when viewed in a general sense - SRK and Kajol just always make you think otherwise. And, if we keep waiting for Kajol and SRK to star in something substantial together than that may take so long..considering SRK's films have been really meh lately...but, hopefully soon.
Yep Anjali was the best written role of the film..and I sincerely believe Kajol held the film together. SRK despite all his charm, was hamming & overacting a lot. 😆 But hey whatever, I still love it because it was my childhood...watched it with my sister every day when I was younger .. It definitely had the most heart from all of Karan's films...I don't remember who, but someone said the first film is always the most genuine and heartfelt...after that you get caught up in expectations..K3G is guilty pleasure time pass cheesiness. It has enough comedic elements to make it work for me. 😆
...but after that Karan especially lost it. Trying to do too much, trying to be too different, which isn't his forte...and SOTY was just 2 hours of a fashion show, with nothing happening in it 😆
When I was younger I always forwarded Tujhe yaad na meri aayi...too sad and I didn't like seeing her sad because she was especially good at crying. 😆
I hope like some of the other yesteryear couples who made a comeback some 30 years afterward that we don't have to wait 30 years for them to work together =/ I guess some directors are a little overwhelmed by them too...their pairing is iconic and comes with too many expectations..and mediocre director could easily get bogged down by expectations.
