Plot

[edit]

Dev Narayan lives with his daughter Laxmi and her children, Radha and Prashant. He also looks after two orphans, Gopal and Nita. When he refuses to pay for surgery on Ramnath, Laxmi's husband, she leaves with her children. Ramnath eventually dies. On her way home from the hospital, Laxmi spots and takes in an orphaned boy named Suraj, whom Radha forms a sisterly bond with.

33 years later

[edit]

Suraj, now a famous singer, is grateful to Radha for contributing to his success through her support. Gopal, one of the two orphans Dev took in, is a rich businessman. After Laxmi dies in an accident, Radha and Prashant shift to Dev's house. Gopal falls in love with Radha, resulting in Dev getting them married. After some time, Gopal frequently spots Radha spending an immense amount of time with Suraj and prioritizing Suraj over him and suspects them to be having an affair. As time passes, misunderstandings continue to increase, including incidents during their honeymoon and another incident resulting in Prashant getting thrown out, eventually causing Gopal to throw Radha out of his house. He grows angry and bitter at the world, and refuses to hear out Radha and Suraj.

However, later, he realizes he misunderstood their sibling relationship for adultery. Gopal thus reunites with Radha and apologizes to Suraj, who also has a girlfriend Suman. All live happily thereafter.

Critical reception

[edit]

Variety wrote that "Despite a cast that "reunites" some of Hindi cinema's biggest names, the long-awaited Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam which finally premiered in late May, reps a major disappointment.[10] Empire Online noted that "Love triangles are a common device in Bollywood flicks, and sadly, Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam has nothing new to offer."[11] A critic from Radio Times stated that "Nuance isn't a Bollywood specialty, and there's little in the way of subtle shading here but, with its impressive all-star cast and songs from some of India's leading composers, this enjoyable melodrama can't be beaten for big, bold emotion".[12] The Times of India wrote that "The film is a ready reckoner for everything that should be avoided in a good film".[13]

Reviewer Anita Bora writes "A medium-sized dose of love with a big dash of suspicion. Add to it several scoops of friendship. Towards the end, add a few drops of humor". She even says that "The premise of the film is simple. Jealousy. If you discount the fact the 'falling in love' was instant (but when is it not?), the topic is quite interesting. Haven't we all at some point read too much into situations, overreacted, undergone pangs of jealousy that seem downright silly later?"[14]
