This is the advice that Zooni Ali Beg Kajol receives from her father just as she is about to venture out into the world of her own for the very first time. Little does she know that these very words will shape her life. Zooni, a blind Kashmiri girl, meets Rehan Qadri Aamir Khan , a local Delhi tour guide and an incorrigible flirt. Her friends warn her against this good-for-nothing roadside Romeo, but she chooses to ignore them. It is now her time to discover life and love. Is this really the right choice? Rehan is fascinated by Zooni and wants her to see life as it should be seen, in its many colours. He promises her that the time spent with him will be the most precious in all her life. Zooni sees Delhi, life and love like she never has before, because of Rehan. What Zooni doesn't know is that Rehan has another side of his... The characters are given amazing dept and lo and behold they take thefilm to an all new high. Kajol has proved shes the best actress of hergeneration and with this film is giving serious competion to her latelegendary aunt nutun as the best actress of the family. Aamir is splendid though i felt his character got a bit sketchy in the2nd half not his fault the director and writer could have made hismotives more clearer for us. There are a few bloopers, of course, but they may be easily overlooked,an easy enough thing for sensible and regular watchers of Indiancinema. True, Aamir and Kajol have performed brilliantly, the cinematography isexcellent and the music heavenly. The background scores are worth morethan a mention. But the movie goes deeper and makes one think about the power of loveand our utter helplessness before it... The importance of choice is given the limelight in this movie-the choices that are so unique and personal to each of us, given thesame situation. It also asks, importantly, how much can love forgive? Put yourself in the place of these characters as you watch the movieand see how much is asked of you at each step, what strength isrequired to make the choices they make. This movie, in some ways, is a lesson in love. It puts to shame ourcautiousness, rigid moral standards, emotional walls etc in love. Youcannot walk into love with tiny steps, wearing a steel armor andpraying not to get hurt. There is no such thing as going too fast ortoo slow, or all these clichés we've come up with to explainrelationships : To love, you truly HAVE to be free. Fanna belongs totally toAamir and Kajol ,who both have delivered a brilliant performance. Kajolplays Zooni with such a class and natural , she reached ,with Fanaa, aplace that no other actress ,today, can reach or even come close. Aamir plays Rehan, though it's a unusual role thatmany of Bollywood actors would turn down nobody wants to play theanti-hero anymore , he makes it real to the core,you follow him throughthe whole transition of his character,you love him and you hate him atthe same time! Aamir is the master of acting today. The chemistrybetween Aamir and Kajol was terrific! Kajol matches Aamir ,like the sunmatches the sky,they delighted every frame of the screen! The other actors were efficient! The music of Fanaa is beautiful and the videos makes it just better:ahigh note to Dekho Na,Kunal managed to control the little space of theshot with ease and closeups of Aamir and Kajol werefantastic. Beautifully shot,Fanaa makes you following the journey oftwo lovers who maybe wanted and deserved their part of happiness,sothey knocked the heaven's door but another destiny was writing forthem.
