Vishu & Ramu meet the visitors by chance at the Airport upon their arrival. Through a series of events one of the twins, Vishu, falls in love with Madhumita. The couple has everyones approval except Rajamani, who is estranged from his own twin brother.

Jeans Reviews:
Interesting as a biographical piece 
2007-10-09 - This movie is the typical bollywood potpourri, with the usual plot twists and reversals. Like most Indian films, the sound is added later, and the dubbing is poorly coordinated. It is interesting only in that it shows how far Ash Rai has come as an actress since this earlier film (98). Her acting is truly poor, but this partly reflects the weak writing for her character; despite that excuse, it's hard to believe that just one year later she delivered the performance in Straight From the Heart (99), a far better movie. PS: there is Nothing about Jeans in the movie; Genes, yes.

2007-05-15 - A very interesting story very well acted. It was easy to follow the plot even though it is almost entirely in Indian dialect.
Talk About Subplots! 
2007-05-12 - I thought I would love this movie- it has Aishwarya Rai in it and the description said it was about a girl falling in love with a twin, who wasn't allowed to marry her because his father wanted to have both sons married to twins. I though it sounded funny, and the basic line of the plot turned out to be slightly humorous, but completely ridiculous. Aishwarya Rai was fabulous- as the person she was playing, but when she was trying to play her twin in the movie, I cringed at the bad acting. Her male costar wasn't that much better. Also, the movie was three hours long- because it devoted the first half hour to this subplot about the grandmother's brain surgery, which the doctors bungled and the twin she fell in love with helped her win this law suit, and then what felt like a few more hours was devoted to the father, who, as it turns out, was a Siamese twin whose wife was intentionally neglected by the other twin's wife . . . it was crazy and no fun to watch.
