hyped garbage

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Before you see this film, a bit of confusion might take place. The last name 'Singh' is a very, very common one in India and it is a name most Sikh families use. So, when you hear about a feud between Dhanraj Singh and Randhir Singh, it is NOT a family squabble but a feud between two Sikh families. However, unlike a typical group of Sikhs, both families lack the turbans extremely long hair and beards usually associated with male Sikhs. But, as I pointed out, they are not intended to be from the same family and the average Indian would know this. But, since I live in the USA and many readers are not Indians, I thought I'd include this in case there is any confusion."Qayamat se Qayamat Tak" is an Indian remake of Romeo and Juliet set in modern times. However, the film takes a few liberties here and there with the script. It begins with a man becoming engaged. On this day, his lover, Madhu, comes to him to tell him she'd pregnant. He is callous and offers to pay for an abortion and nothing more. She is so despondent that she killer herself. Her family has learned what happened and they are furious. Her brother is so angry, he shows up on the wedding day and murders the faithless jerk.Time passes. Now, after many years, the killer is set free from prison. He is still naturally bitter about the incident--as is the other family. Clearly, they are feudin' families. Unfortunately for the two angry and dogmatic patriarchs of the two families, two of their offspring soon meet and fall in love! Raj knows that Rashmi is from his family's enemies--but she is a lovely person. He resists her for some time, but after saving her from a gang of rapists, he gives up and allows himself to fall for her. Rashmi, at first, doesn't know who Raj is--but she, too, is in love.As far as what happens next, that is rather interesting. Apparently the filmmakers made TWO endings and tried them out with test audiences. The younger people liked a sad ending similar to Shakespeare and the older folks wanted a happy ending. Which version won out? See the film for yourself.I was surprised by this one. While it was generally a by-the-numbers remake, the film really held my attention and the ending practically made me scream out in surprise! It's an awfully enjoyable flick--one of the better older Indian films I have seen.Finally, I'd like to say a bit about the DVD packaging for this and many other Indian films. While I love the films, many Indian DVD companies really screw their customers. They force the viewer to watch MANY previews--even AFTER you click to start the movie!! And, you cannot skip over these easily--or at all in some cases. You could end up sitting through a half an hour of previews and ads before the film actually begins! In the case of "Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak", even after skipping through many commercials, when you click "Start Movie", it won't let you actually see the film! You must go to the chapters section and click on chapter one manually! Additionally, like some other Indian production companies, the songs are NOT captioned!!! It's enough to make me watch Japanese or French films instead!

'Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak' retains it's freshness today. There is a foreboding beginning which reminds us of the violent eighties pot-boilers. However, once Aamir and Juhi make an entry, the audience becomes mesmerized by their chemistry. Juhi in particular appears sweet and innocent. Aamir's boyish charm helps us get over his inexperience as an actor. The songs remain magical and are still popular. The second half becomes progressively darker as the romance is threatened. The final section is hackneyed and the film suffers because of it. Still quite watchable.Overall 7/10

One of the most romantic films ever made! A must-see for all those that enjoy quality cinema at its best, without the help of a big-budget or big star names. The film was a runaway success and launched the successful careers of Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla. The music became hugely popular and the lead stars the heartthrobs of the nation. QSQT also helped to break the back of the action genre during the 1980s and proved romance to be popular amongst cine goers again. Perhaps if it wasn't for the success of QSQT, then other love stories such as Maine Pyar Kiya and Chandni may not have been made or met with the same amount of box-office success.

The 80's were dominated by films based on action themes or crude comedies. Qayamat se Qayamat tak (QSQT) came as a whiff of fresh air. The story is simple - there are two warring families and all hell breaks loose when Aamir and Juhi who are from these families fall in love. Basically an Indianised version of "Romeo and Juliet". The beauty of the film lies in the treatment of the theme. This was Aamir's first film , and he looks stunningly innocent. The music is sweet and adds great value to the film. A really pleasant experience.
