Really loved the first half with the rivalry between SRK and Juhi as TV reporters for different stations. The banter and tricks they played on each other were very fun. It had a sort of old fashioned Tracy/Hepburn feel to it.

The second half when the assassination takes place veered wildly in tone with violence exploding and riots. I wasn't prepared for the film to change that much. I'm not sure the director pulled off the wild swings back and forth from horrific chaos to teasing love story.

The film description talks about how the two reporters band together to save a man from hanging -- but he did mete out vigilante justice and kill a guy in cold blood. The film sort of glorifies that, even though it highlights political corruption, and the rise up of the people's voice. It got a bit preachy at the end there.

Still, very enjoyable film overall, and I do love the Juhi SRK pairing here. Great dance numbers, too.
