There's nothing remarkable about this film save its two fine actors - Rani Mukerji and Saif Ali Khan.
Inspired by the Meg Ryan-Billy Crystal film When Harry met Sally, Hum Tum is a love story about two strangers Rhea Prakash (Rani Mukerji) and Karan Kapoor (Saif Ali Khan), who meet on their way to the U.S for higher studies.
When it comes to girls, Karan has just one goal - how to get into their pants, an attitude that irritates Rhea tremendously. Rhea slaps Karan when he kisses her during a six-hour stopover in Amsterdam.
Although the two go their separate ways after reaching New York, they keep bumping into each other over the next several years. Rhea gets married to a software professional Sameer (Abhishek Bachchan) while Karan becomes a successful cartoonist but remains single.
They meet again in Paris, where Rhea has settled down after the death of her husband and where Karan's photographer father Arjun Kapoor (Rishi Kapoor) has dropped anchor.
Karan even plays matchmaker for Rhea, a move that drives her to fury. They both realize that they love each other but destiny sends them apart again.
Will things change finally?
The songs in Hum Tum are nothing to rave about. - Copyright SearchIndia.com.
