For dance instructor Dia (Madhuri Dixit), New York City has been home for 11 years. But when she's told her guru in India is dying, she rushes back to Shamli to be by his side and finds that he has passed away, leaving behind an endangered legacy: the Ajanta Theater. This theater, where she learned to dance before emigrating, is in danger of being torn down by politicians, namely Raja Uday Singh (Kunal Kapoor). In an effort to save the theater, Dia must prepare a production in two months.

Does ace lensman Anil Mehta, who's first feature this is, pull it off? Not really.

Aaja is genteel and winsome and directed with restraint. Some of the best dialogue in recent times, resting on a core of quietude.

Rated: 3/4

For a film which invites us to 'come, let's dance', there is not a single number which encourages us to. Bring back the cheekiness of the choli!

If history has taught us anything, it's that the effectiveness of a proposition such as Aaja Nachle depends almost entirely on charm. In this case, that invitation is all but irresistible.

The lovely and fun-loving Aaja Nachle keys in on just the right tone to keep from seeming silly.

This film was Madhuri's comeback after a long time of being out of the limelight. Songs were fun, story was good. Her daughter was not necessary to the story, perhaps a bit annoying. There were parts of the movie that were very touching!

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
