R T @Karnika Aug 24, 2026 I recently rewatched Dostana, and honestly, it’s still one of those Bollywood movies that knows how to keep things light, colorful, and entertaining. The story follows Sameer and Kunal, who pretend to be a gay couple so they can get an apartment in Miami, only to end up falling for their roommate Neha. What I enjoyed most was the chemistry between Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham, and Priyanka Chopra. Their comic timing and friendship make many scenes genuinely fun, while the Miami setting, fashion, music, and overall style give the movie a very lively feel. I also liked how the movie uses comedy to explore friendship, love, misunderstandings, and acceptance. Of course, some of the jokes and stereotypes feel dated today, so it’s definitely a movie to watch with that context in mind. For me, Dostana is less about taking the story too seriously and more about enjoying the comedy, friendship, romance, songs, and memorable characters.

See more May 13, 2020 actually a very funny and still heart-filled romantic Bollywood film Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham are Sam and Kunal living in Miami, Florida one's a nurse the other is a professional model photographer, they both are looking for a cheap place to live and stumble upon a high-end apartment it's in their price range and conveniant however, there are no men allowed only women so they both hatch a plan pretending to be a same-sex couple to avoid complications the woman who owns the place has a niece, Nehal (Priyanka Chopra) and turns out she's beautiful, but neither of them can do anything about it or risk getting kicked out this movie has that 'Three's Company' element which does make the scenario very funny in a few spots now both of these guys have to keep up their image but also deal with the harsh reality that they are hopelessly in love with her Nehal is also working at a successful fashion design company and she wants to be more recognized for her talent along the way she also ends up falling for her boss which leads to further complications for Sam and Kunal maybe being something else isn't so bad, if it means having friends, family and a source of happyness that should count for something, sometimes friendship means more than lying or conning your way into something, something such as this rarely is part of any plan we have in motion, the most unexpected things can come from anywhere and anyone the cast is attractive, the music is top-notch and catchy, the dance sequences like any Bollywood production are shiny and well-staged, and the movie for a while avoids so many cliches you'd expect from this kind of sitcom plot a very worthy addition in the endless collection of Indian-based cinema See more Ahmed M @neverOddorEven Mar 28, 2016 The movie has a good plot and is hilarious. See more Mar 3, 2015 Bit Like An Episode Of "The Wiggles" With The Well-Worn 'We're Not Really Gay' Joke Going On...For A Very Long, Loooong..Time.. & It Draws To A Conclusion In A Staggered Way, Gets Boring. Then You're Jerked Awake With A Very Loud Bollywood Musical Bit. See more Sep 10, 2014 I liked the portrayals done by John Abraham and Boman Irani (the campy boss). Also glad there weren't predictable slapstick situations where Sam & Kunal's cover up got close to being found out. Instead, the humorous situations were in people believing them, and their having to play along! Hence, the story could progress.. until it got to the point where they had to own up and confess :) See more Read all reviews
