'Shaadi Karke...' a family drama releasing too late

New Delhi, Aug 1 (IANS) Bollywood star Salman Khan returns to the marquee after a long gap with K.S. Adhiyaman's "Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar" that releases Friday.

The last time he was on screen was in the dud "Saawan - The Season of Love". And Salman obviously doesn't have any high hopes from this film either. "If you ask me, the film's future is very bleak," he told reporters.

His argument is that the makers have unnecessarily delayed the release of the film that has been ready for more than a year, which would have a negative impact on its box office performance.

The premise of the film is simple - it is a family drama interspersed with romance, humour and emotions.

It revolves around Ayaan (Salman Khan), a young man from an upper middle class family who falls in love with a beautiful model Ahana (Shilpa Shetty) who belongs to an ultra rich family.

Eventually, they get married. They are looking forward to a blissful and happily married life, but troubles soon crop up when Ahana discovers the vast cultural difference between her upbringing and Ayaan's. Small differences eventually lead to major confrontation between the two.

The film also stars Reema Lagoo, Shakti Kapoor, Mohnish Behl and Asif Sheikh. The music is by Sajid-Wajid.

Though "Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar" has been stalled, its south remake was made and released in a jiffy and has done a major business.

To make things worse, the Salman starrer has tough competition at the ticket window with Arshad Warsi and Sanjay Dutt's "Anthony Kaun Hai" releasing the same day.
