Aamir Khan (from "Lagaan"), and Rani Mukherjee together on this Bollywood classic

This is one of those Bollywood stories that won't make you feel like it's too long and too musical. The story is simple to follow, even though you still have to read sub-titles if you're English. And what's really nice is that the song videos are really very pleasant, and kinda sexy.

Rani Mukherji (Mukherjee), is as beautiful and as sexy as ever. I could just watch these music videos over and over because I like the songs and Rani's seductive behavior. To me, Rani Mukherji is the most beautiful actress in the world. But, from India, Aishwarya Rai is probably the most famous. If more of Bollywood's famous female Indian stars came to America, Hollywood would want to start to forget about many of today's aging actresses trying to stay alive.

I would recommend that you rent "Ghulam" first. If you like it, check out other Bollywood films. If you like movies just for the sake of seeing beautiful people, then definitely check out Bollywood films.
