The Plot
A bodyguard named Lovely Singh is given the task of protecting the college going Divya, the daughter of a man who is regarded very highly by Lovely. Lovely is sort of a one man army and he protects even high profile people like Katrina Kaif and smashes wrong doers to pulp singlehandedly.
Lovely accompanies her to college in his official uniform and coolers. His stiff and stern approach irks Divya and in order to soften him and to get him out of his uniform, she starts calling him regularly in a different voice and with a different name Chaya. Slowly she falls in love with Lovely. Lovely doesn't know that it is Divya. Divya also has a close friend who stays with her.
In the end, she plans to elope with Lovely at the station but things go haywire and Lovely meets Chaya, but not the real one.
There is a also a fat comedy side-kick, a midget comedian, some villains who are after Lovely and Divya. All is well in the end after a twist in the plot.
A sub-standard remake of the Malayalam movie "Bodyguard". Even the Tamil version "Kavalan" was much better than this.

Hits
- The beautiful 'I Love You' song.
- Salman impresses at places with his stiff walks, serious bodyguard body language and his nervousness before girls.
Misses
- The stunts are horrible and too over the top
- The VFX is very amateurish and very funny
- The comedy track is mostly very ordinary
- Poor BG score.
Comments
- Kareena looks jaded and heavily made-up. Too old for an MBA student. She looks much suited for the serious climax
VERDICT
A poor remake. The Malayalam and Tamil versions are much better. Sort of "BAKWAS". But the Hindi belt might provide patronage.
