The story is just heart touching. Every person who have watch this movie will want to be falling in love.

I strongly recommend you guys to watch this movie. Although, after reading this blog you might not even need the recommendation from me.

At Gurukul, there exist the principal call Narayan Shankar (Amitabh Bachchan) who is a very cruel and strict principal of the Gurukul Boys University. Narayan always speech about his rules and regulations at university and tell them to follow it. He also prohibited all the students from involving in any kind of romance.

The main focus of the film are the three male students:

Sameer (Jugal Hansraj)

Vicky (Uday Chopra)

Karan (Jimmy Shergill)

All three of them fell in love while studying at Gurukul.

Sameer has always been in love with his childhood friend, Sanjana (Kim Sharma) which he has not seen in a long time. While, Vicky falls for Ishika (Shamita Shetty), a student of the all-girls university next to Gurukul. Meanwhile, Karan falls in love at first sight with Kiran (Preeti Jhangiani), a girl which he saw at the train station. They all know very well that if they are caught, the principal would have them expel. So they decided to keep it in their heart until someone could save them from the principal hands.

One day, Raj Aryan (Shah Rukh Khan) started teaching at Gurukul as a music teacher. He challenges all the rules of Gurukul and gradually starts the thing that Narayan dislikes the most. Raj is a great believer of love and romance. When he knew the stories of the three boys, he advice them to make their love dreams come true. The boys had also wish for their love dream to come true but one by one they had discovered some bitter realities. Sameer found out that Sanjana already has a boyfriend. While Vicky knew that Ishika does not like him, and Karan heard that Kiran is married to a pilot who nobody know whether he is dead or alive. Raj encourages them and told them that once upon a time he was also in love with Megha (Aishwarya Rai). Although she is dead but he still love her with all his heart and imagines that she is always with him.

 

Raj makes a party in Gurukul and invites the girls from Girls University which is next door to Gurukul, because he wants to spread love in Gurukul. Narayan is extremely angry and warns Raj. Raj then tells Naryan that he was a student at Gurukul years ago, and he was in love with Megha, who was the only daughter of narayan and when Narayan knew their love story he had expelled Raj without looking his face or knowing him, Megha cannot bear it and she committed suicide. Raj came back to Gurukul to change the customs and traditions of Gurukul and to make it the place where love is not forbidden. Raj promises Narayan that he will make Gurukal a place of love and romance. Narayan accepted the challenge and was convinced that he will be the winner. Thus, convinced that Raj can never change his rules.

All three boys win the hearts of the girls, to whom they love. While Narayan is making Gurukul more strict by his rules day by day, but the three boys always break the rules and other students are also starting to follow them. Finally Narayan decides to expel Sameer,Vicky and Karan but Raj tells Narayan that he is the leader of the boys and he is telling them to break the rules for love because love is the emotion which is so beautiful and worthy.

Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (English: Something... Something Happens) also known as KKHH, is a 1998 Indian Hindi coming of age romantic comedy drama film, released in India and the United Kingdom on 16 October 1998. It was written and directed by Karan Johar, and starred the popular on-screen pair of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in their fourth film together. Rani Mukerji featured in a supporting role, while Salman Khan also had an extended-cameo appearance. Sana Saeed, who was featured in a supporting role, made her film debut in this movie.  One of his goals for the film was to set a new level for style in Hindi cinema. The plot combines two love triangles set years apart. The first half covers friends on a college campus, while the second tells the story of a widower's young daughter who tries to reunite her dad with his old friend.

The film begins with Rahul Khanna (Shah Rukh Khan) standing in front of the funeral pyre of his wife Tina (Rani Mukerji). Through a series of flashbacks we are shown Rahul and Tina's marriage, their honeymoon, Tina's pregnancy with their daughter and the child's eventual birth. It is revealed that Tina was aware of complications in her pregnancy, during which only mother or child could be saved, but decided not to tell Rahul as she knew how much he wanted a child. During her pregnancy, Tina, who also loved the baby more than her own life, writes eight letters to her daughter (one for each of her first eight birthdays) and gives them to Rahul's mother (Farida Jalal). Before dying, Tina asks Rahul to promise her to name their daughter Anjali.

Eight years go by and Rahul is a single parent living with his daughter Anjali (Sana Saeed) and his mother. His mother worries that Rahul is lonely and that Anjali is missing out on a motherly figure in her life, but Rahul brushes it off saying that having him and his mother is enough. On her eighth birthday, Anjali reads the last and most important letter that her mother left her; it tells the story of Rahul, Tina, and Anjali.

The move flashes back to university, where Rahul Khanna and his best friend, tomboy Anjali Sharma (Kajol) are popular students. The two are close friends but deny any romantic feelings for each other. The college principal Mr. Malhotra (Anupam Kher) states that his daughter Tina is returning to the university from London to finish her degree, and asks Anjali to be her guide and friend. Tina quickly becomes friends with Anjali and Rahul, and Rahul constantly flirts with Tina, trying to win her over. As time goes by, Anjali realises that she is in love with Rahul, and is encouraged by her motherly guardian Rifat Bi (Himani Shivpuri) to tell him. Before she is able to declare her feelings for him, Rahul tells Anjali that he is in love with Tina. Devastated, Anjali decides to leave college and shares a tearful goodbye with Rahul. Although she is in love with Rahul, Tina realises that she came between him and Anjali.

Back in the present, Tina explains in her letter to her daughter that Rahul always said that love is friendship, and without friendship there can be no love. Rahul is a single parent and lacks a friend in his life, so Tina gives her daughter the mission of reuniting Rahul with Anjali and bringing back Rahul's lost love and friend. The next day, Rahul, his daughter, and his mother head to Faridabad where they meet Mr. Malhotra for Tina's death anniversary. Anjali shows her mother's letters to all of them except Rahul.

Anjali Sharma is now engaged to Aman Mehra (Salman Khan), an NRI living in London. However, she explains to her mother (Reema Lagoo) that she does not truly love him and is marrying him as a compromise as she feels she can never love again after losing Rahul. Aman also suspects that she does not really love him. Determined to reunite her father and his best friend, Anjali Khanna and her grandmother search for Anjali Sharma and soon learn that she is going to be working at a summer camp in Shimla. Rahul tells his daughter that she is not allowed to attend the summer camp and heads to a conference, only to find out that his mother and daughter went without telling him, having left him a letter. At the camp, the two Anjalis meet each other. One night while watching television, 

Anjali Sharma realizes she has met Rahul's daughter, and that Tina has passed away. Rahul soon arrives at the camp where he and Anjali Sharma are surprised and delighted to see each other again, sharing a sweet reunion. Throughout the days spent at the camp, Rahul and Anjali feel themselves falling in love. Just as they are about to share a heated moment,  Anjali thinks about her upcoming engagement and feels guilty. She runs away in tears, after which Aman arrives and tells Rahul that he is Anjali's fiancé. Rahul is heartbroken but congratulates Anjali. She takes this as him rejecting her again, so she leaves the summer camp and decides to get married to Aman as soon as possible.

After seeing Tina in a dream, Rahul and his family go to Anjali's wedding, where Rahul silently confesses to Anjali that he loves her, and watches in tears as she is brought forth for the wedding. Realising this, Anjali is hesitant to go on with the marriage, and stands weeping. Aman notices the tears in her eyes and realises that she has always been in love with Rahul. He releases Anjali from the engagement and tells her to marry Rahul. Rahul and Anjali have an emotional hug and as the two marry, little Anjali Khanna sees a vision of Tina, who is smiling and giving her the thumbs up.
