Aamir Khan picks his projects with a mix of sensitivity and savvy, and presents the film-going public with a different persona each time. I welcome her return to the screen, and if she displays similar care in choosing her next project, it will be worth the wait. One almost feels like looking away at times, to allow her privacy in her grief. Kajol has been blessed with sublimely expressive eyes, and now that she has acquired more life experience, they register even greater pain. If anything, she is more svelte, and her face shines with increased character. Also wonderful is that neither motherhood, nor her absence from the screen for five years, have dimmed her youthful looks or charm. Kajol grows in stature as an actor with every film, and her Zooni goes from naive and school-girlish to anguished widow and conflicted wifeВ—a challenging character arc, by any measureВ—yet, she makes it truthful and believable with her wonderful transparency. There are some plot holes, but they can be overlooked in the interests of the big picture. Is this overly ambitious for a commercial Hindi blockbuster? Perhaps, but the intellectual sophistication of the film-making team more or less pulls it off. Notions of love, loyalty, betrayal, patriotism, and morality get turned on their head, making for a pretty complex film. Differing perspectives of nationalism and terrorism are exploredВ—one man's terrorist act may also be looked at as a fight for an independent homelandВ—as well as conventional familial and romantic relationships. So what are we to think? From this point on, the film takes off into novel terrain, becoming an extremely satisfying viewing experience. Years later, a Major Ranjeev, bearing a disturbing resemblance to the dead Rehan, shows up. Rehan is killed in a terrorist bomb blast, or so we are led to think, while the Indian authorities launch a search for the criminal mastermind that planned this and several similar attacks. Her parents agree to the match, and the footloose Rehan readies himself for marriage to just one woman. This is where I realized that the times, they are a-changing: sweet, blind (in more ways than one), sheltered Zooni is so consumed by love that she permits Rehan to bed her before he weds her, a phenomenon that is exceedingly rare (or used to be) in Hindi films. Aamir looks a bit long in the tooth to be playing Romeo, but does so gamely, and successfully gets the smitten Zooni to agree to a no-strings romance. Right off the bat, she meets a tour guide with the gift of the gab and a roving eye named Rehan Quadri (Aamir Khan), and against the better judgment of her friends, takes up with him. The storyВ—as much as I can divulge in a reviewВ—starts off in fairly formulaic boy-meets-girl fashion: Zooni Ali Beg (Kajol), a beautiful blind Kashmiri young woman, comes to the big city (New Delhi, in this case) for the very first time, after having lived a sheltered, happy life in a pristine little town in Kashmir. Aided by strong writing, a different story, able direction, and slick production values, they make it an entirely worthwhile proposition. I say good for them, for this is a superb collaboration between the actors.

In addition, this is Kajol's first film after a self-imposed hiatus, while Aamir Khan, paired with her here for the first time, is also seen infrequently on screen due to his reputed fastidiousness in choosing movie projects. Any film bearing such an intriguing, if somewhat grandiose, title would have the onus of living up to enormous expectations. In Persian, Urdu, and chaste Hindi, it means 'annihilated', 'destroyed', or in the context of the latest offering from Yash-Raj Films, it signifies 'devastated, ravaged, or consumed by love'. 'Fanaa' is not a word in common parlance. What Zooni doesn't know is that Rehan has another side to his life-something that can not only change her life, but can also destroy it.

Zooni sees Delhi, life, and love like she never has before, because of Rehan. He promises her that the time spent with him will be the most precious in all her life.

Is this really the right choice? Rehan is fascinated by Zooni and wants her to see life as it should be seen, in its many colours. It is now her time to discover life and love. Her friends warn her against this good-for-nothing roadside Romeo, but she chooses to ignore them. Zooni, a blind Kashmiri girl, meets Rehan Qadri (Aamir Khan), a local Delhi tour guide and an incorrigible flirt. Little does she know that these very words will shape her life. This is the advice that Zooni Ali Beg (Kajol) receives from her father just as she is about to venture out into the world on her own for the very first time. Choices: to choose between right or wrong is simple, but what defines one's life is the decision between the greater of two goods or the lesser of two evils.
