Kal Ho Na Ho

Kal Ho Na Ho is easy to identify as a movie from the Karan Johar camp. It has Shahrukh Khan, some nice peppy songs, a lot of emotion, and plenty of color; and increasingly so, the setting is more and more outside of India (Kal Ho Na Ho being set in the cosmopolitan capital of the world - New York). And you could be forgiven for forgetting that the director of the movie is Nikhil Advani and not Karan Johar (he is the producer). The movie has music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, lyrics by Javed Akhtar, and songs sung by Sonu Nigam, Alka Yagnik, Richa Sharma, Udit Narayan, Sadhna Sargam, Shankar Mahadevan, Sujata Bhattacharya, Vasundhara Das, Kay Kay, Loy Mendosa, Shaan, Ravi "Rags" Khote.
It is very easy to see why there is a good successful combo of Karan Johar and Shahrukh Khan, they get the best out of each other; Shahrukh gets a power packed role that would emphasize his status as the King Khan, while Karan gets the benefit of the full flow of the Khan charisma and gets the audiences and money rolling in. There are other stars such as Saif Ali Khan, Preity Zinta, Jaya Bachchan, Sushma Seth, etc, and they do turn in good performances, but these are mostly complementary to the main role of Shahrukh Khan's character.



There is a lot of doubt about whether this movie is based on the Rajesh Khanna character in the movie 'Anand'. There are hints a plenty to support this thought, but the extent of the role is different and the scenario is different. Anand was more about the inter-action between the 2 characters of Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan, while Kal Ho Na Ho was all about the way that this character brings drastic change to the one family.
The movie is also structured in this way such that the first half is all about the way that this character is introduced into the whole scenario, and how he actually starts to bring about a change in the way that the family dynamics play out; while the second half is more about emotions - in fact it eventually moves into a heavy dose of emotions, and positively becomes a tear-jerker in the end.
The movie is about this family of Naina (Preity Zinta). She lives with her mother Jennifer (Jaya Bachchan), and her grandmother (Sushma Seth), and these two continuously spar with each other. This causes an immense amount of regular tension in the house, and has a very negative effect on Naina, her younger brother and sister. In addition, Sushma Seth cannot stand the younger grandchild since she is adopted. Jennifer is trying to run the household on the income she is making from a struggling restaurant. The only bright spark in Naina's life is her friend, the wannabe cool dude, Rohit (Saif Ali Khan).
And then the magic begins; in enters Aman (Shahrukh Khan). He slowly gets everybody to warm up to him, causes a transformation in Naina (making her more confident and self-beautiful), he causes a massive improvement in the restaurant business, and ultimately he causes a warming up of relations between Jennifer and her mother-in-law by explaining the reality behind the suicide of Jennifer's husband and the actual family link of Gia, the adopted youngest daughter.
But just when everything starts to seem better, then you realize that things are not what they are. A critical illness explains the meaning of the name of the movie 'Kal Ho Na Ho', and you start to get a contrast between the time of happiness as the relation between Rohit and Naina reaches marriage and the death throes of Aman.

Kal Ho Na Ho (Sad Song)



It's time to disco





Lyrics:

Kal Ho Na Ho (Sung by Sony Nigam)

Har Ghadi Badal Raha Hai Roop Zindagi
Chaav Hai Kahhi Hai Dhoop Zidnagi
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Ghadi Badal Raha Hai Roop Zindagi
Chaav Hai Kahhi Hai Dhoop Zidnagi
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho

Chaahe Jo Tumhe Poore Dil Se
Milta Hai Woh Mushkil Se
Aisa Jo Koi Kahin Hai
Bas Vahi Sabse Hasin Hai
Us Haath Ko Tum Thaam Lo
Woh Meherbaan Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho

Palko Ke Leke Saaye
Paas Koi Jo Aaye
Lakh Sambhalo Paagal Dil Ko
Dil Dhadke Hi Jaaye
Par Sochlo Is Pal Hai Jo
Woh Dastan Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho
Har Pal Yahan
Jee Bhar Jiyo Jo Hai Sama
Kal Ho Na Ho



Kal Ho Na Ho - Sad (Sung by ALKA YAGNIK, RICHA SHARMA AND SONU NIGAM)

Soni Banno Chan Si Chamke
Mathe Uthe Jhumkar Dame
Palka Uth Diya Ne Thum Thum Ke
Main Vari Vari Java
Soni Banno Chan Si Chamke
Mathe Uthe Jhumkar Dame
Palka Uth Diya Ne Thum Thum Ke
Main Vari Vari Java

Tu Vekh Tai Lai Aj Raj Ke
Apne Sariyan Nu
Cheti Apne Nahi Mil De
Ja Banno Pave Khushiyan Te Dil Dariyan Tu
Pave Armaan Sab Dil De
Tu Vekh Tai Lai Aj Raj Ke
Apne Sariyan Nu
Cheti Apne Nahi Mil De
Ja Banno Pave Khushiyan Te Dil Dariyan Tu
Pave Armaan Sab Dil De

Tum Ho Gham Ko Chupaye
Main Hoon Sar Ko Jhukaye
Tum Bhi Chup Ho
Main Bho Chup Hoon
Kaun Kise Samjhaye
Ab Dooriyan Itni Hain To
Milna Yahan Kal Ho Naa Ho
Ab Dooriyan Itni Hain To
Milna Yahan Kal Ho Naa Ho
Tu Vekh Tai Lai Aj Raj Ke
Apne Sariyan Nu
Cheti Apne Nahi Mil De
Ja Banno Pave Khushiyan Te Dil Dariyan Tu
Pave Armaan Sab Dil De

Sach Hai Ke Dil To Dukha Hai
Hamne Magar Socha Hai
Dil Ko Hai Gham Kyon
Aankh Hai Nam Kyon
Hona Hi Tha Jo Hua Hai
Us Baat Ko Jaane Bhi Do
Jiska Nishaan Kal Ho Naa Ho
Har Pal Yahan Je Bhar Jiyo
Jo Hai Sama Kal Ho Naa Ho

When I say that I can feel you here
Can you feel me here when I say
I'm crazy about you pretty woman!

Dekhi jo yeh pari masti dil mein bhari

Ho, na to jaanoon kya hai naam na jaanoon main pata
Par itna hai maine jaana
Jise dekh le ek nazar bharke
Usko kar de voh deewaana
Use jitna dekhoon utna sochoon
Kya use main keh doon
(Pretty woman, dekho dekho na pretty woman
Pretty woman, dekhte ho na pretty woman
Pretty woman, tum bhi kaho na oh pretty woman) - 2
