K3G has some fine writing, etched-out characters, textured moments and, at least in the first half, a well-paced screenplay.

The film literally lives up to its name-making you laugh and cry alternately. The narrative is interspersed with sumptuous song-'n-dance items that appear with rhythmic precision.

A well made film, with some magical moments (hilarious and weepy) and possibly the world's best looking family!

It makes total sense why Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham has become a classic.

Beneath all the primadonna flair, though, you could tell that Kapoor Khan got the brief. She oozed context...

3.5/4

The [sappy] tagline, 'It's all about loving your parents,' hardly does Johar's skillful, delicate balancing act any justice.

It's a classic for a reason. It is the quintessential Bollywood romance-drama, keeping you entertained throughout and getting you emotional when needed.

Horrible movie with bad story line and over doing songs. Really a bad movie with a 3:30 run time. A true waste of time
