1. Watch Water
2. Do not watch Fanaa
The first gives you an insight into life from a different perspective, the second gives you headache and (ironic) laughter.
You will find out why the first one is a good movie after watching it, also you will find out why the second one is a waste of time to watch after NOT watching it and reading this brief description instead:
A blind girl goes to a city to find her Prince Charming (I know, but it's ok so far), then a womanizer falls in love with her and after singing couple of songs (as expected) suddenly changes into a loyal personality (reminds me of the Frog turning into Prince, but that was ok and this is not!) Nothing too bad so far, then the guy figures out an eye surgery would cure his beloved (now fiancee)'s blindness, so they go for it. RIGHT AFTER the girl opens her eyes to see this Prince Charming, she is told that he has been exploded in some (political) bombings. If this movie ended here, I still could say it was an average Indian melodrama, but the director feels too creative to stop, and actually adds a so-called twist to the story (this should be illegal): the guy has not died, he has changed into a political organization's secret agent. After a James-Bond-run-and-follow scene, the guy gets shot (and of course manages to survive) and ends up in the girl's house. The girl is a mother now and her son's name is exactly the same as the guy's name (romantic, ha?) After talking to the girl's father and a lot of unnecessary details, the guy finally asks for the girl's hand. They get married (again, I guess) and after doing some Prince-&-Cinderella poses for the camera start their (apparently) peaceful life, until, the father discovers the true identity of his son-in-law, his job as betraying their country, and the organization he is related to. The guy ends up killing the father, and in a supposedly-tragic-yet-really-comic scene the girl finds her father's corpse comfortably laying down in the river, with his face upward (of course for her daughter to identify) grinning under the thick layer of ice. This is the point John said he wouldn't be able to sit to watch the rest of the movie, but actually after couple of minutes, he said, "I'm just gonna see how it's gonna end, just so I can call Ozzie [his Indian friend] and say I'd be down there to kill him, just because he is Indian and this is an Indian movie!" Well, obviously he was joking (we love our Indian friends) but the movie ended up with everybody killing everybody else, so everybody died but the girl (and of course because she was a nice girl, you know?)
Well, I just felt responsible to let you know, the decision is yours. Watch Water's trailer here (don't forget to pause the background music on right margine):
