I still remember the first time i ever watched 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'. It was in India and i was sitting in sweltering hot cinema, sticking to the rickety leather seats and though on any other day, this would have made me so frustrated, i was totally enchanted by what i was watching. I was heavily infatuated with Shah Rukh Khan at the time, so that would have something to do with it but this film really made me fall in love with the characters and the storyline. The songs, the dialogues and every tear jerking moment was engraved in my mind from the first viewing and i can still watch it back to this day and be just as emotionally involved.
I don't know what it was about the film but it touched many hearts around the world. Karan Johar truly created a masterpiece with this film, one that lives on to this day. Check out my article i did on this film for BizAsia:

In the meantime, i am heading off to watch this film for more than thousandth time and fall in love with it all over again!
