Mann is the story of a playboy who loves beautiful and rich women. He leads an extravagant lifestyle for which he always needs a never ending flow of money - which is never a problem since he is used to women showering him with expensive gifts. The movie is an Indian adaptation of the Hollywood classic, An Affair To Remember, and the premise is simple.
Cast: Aamir Khan, Manisha Koirala, Rani(sp. App.)
Dev (Aamir Khan), a vagrant womanizer, refuses to settle down in life. He has squandered all of his deceased parents’ riches and is set to complete one final romantic escapade aboard a cruise ship from Singapore to Bombay. You see, the smart cookie that his assistant (Neeraj Vohra) is, Dev’s marriage has been arranged to the spolit daughter (Deepti Bhatnagar) of a wealthy tycoon. Dev will compromise his waywardness for the moulah, but not before one last romp in the hay… Or so he hopes.Aboard the sailing vessel, Dev encounters Priya (Manisha Koirala), the first woman to ever light up his soul. Priya may not initially be impressed, but there is a Divine force constantly pulling these opposing personalities together. The couple finally gives in to their feelings for one another, but vow to only get together after six months, on Valentine’s Day at the Gateway of India, having overcome two crucial impediments in their path to love.
Dev has to prove he can stand on his own two feet and Priya has to deal with her impending marriage to the man who had helped her lead more than just an impoverished orphan’s life.
The basic premise is very simple, and frankly, we have seen most of the first half in other movies. Aamir and Manisha bring life to their characters, a rarity for films, and by the interval, you will know and care for Dev and Priya as much as for yourself. The music of the film is its highlight. All the songs are good and are already popular with music lovers. Sanjeev-Darshan have done great job. Mera Mann, Tinak Tin Tana, Nasha Yeh Pyar Ka and Chaha Hai Tujhko deserve special mention.
