Hum Tumhare Hai Sanam (2002 ) full movie

Devnarayan (Alok Nath) takes responsibility of Gopal (Shah Rukh Khan) and Nita (Suman Ranganathan), the children of his deceased friend. Devnarayan gets so involved in their upbringing that he starts neglecting his daughter, Laxmi (Aroona Irani), and her two kids, Radha (Madhuri Dixit) and Prashant (Atul Agnihotri). Upset by her father’s attitude, Laxmi walks out of the house and decides to raise her two kids with sheer hard work and dedication. Unable to cope with Laxmi’s indifference towards him, Devnarayan falls ill and is hospitalised. When Laxmi learns of his illness, she rushes to the hospital to meet her ailing father, but meets with a car accident on the way.

Devnarayan takes the responsibility of bringing up Radha and Prashant as well. Knowing that Gopal loves Radha since childhood, Devnarayan gets them married. Radha’s childhood friend Suraj (Salman Khan) is very close to her and keeps calling her for all his problems, which bothers and upsets Gopal a great deal. Things reach such a stage that Gopal decides to divorce Radha and even throws her out of the house. Does Radha find solace in Suraj’s eyes or does she re-unite with Gopal?

HUM TUMHARE HAIN SANAM has a sparkling star cast, but it suffers on two counts — One, the storyline is as old as the hills. Similar Hindi films have been witnessed earlier; Two, Adiyaman’s storytelling and treatment looks outdated as well. What adds to its woes is the uneven and lethargic pace the story moves ahead. Moreover, everytime the viewer expects something to happen, either the pace drops or nothing happens at all. For instance, the interval point raises the expectations of a dramatic second half, but the post-interval portions are bland as well. Adiyaman should’ve worked doubly hard on the characterisation of Shah Rukh Khan, mainly because it’s his suspicious nature that proves the turning point in the film. Sadly, there’s no effort or a single scene that depicts Shah Rukh’s suspicious nature and what prompts him to behave that way.
