The child stars include Akshat Chopra, Shriya Sharma, Rachit Sidana and Ayushi Berman.[1] Directed, written and co-produced by Kunal Kohli, the film is produced and distributed by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films.

Production

Kunal Kohli considered Aamir Khan and Kajol for the lead roles, but Aamir was busy with his home production Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Kajol was busy with her home production U, Me aur Hum.

In September 2007, the film began shooting in Delhi with some portions also being shot in Alibaug, Bangkok and Los Angeles.[2] The film has completed its shooting on February 3, 2008.[3]

Rani Mukerji sports one layered outfit designed by Manish Malhotra throughout the film while some layers have been taken off according to the requirements of each scene.

Kunal Kohli initially asked Amisha to lose weight for her role in the film. Reportedly, Kohli and Manish Malhotra spent hours to decide her look in the film wherein she dons a yellow bikini.

The movie opened in Canada on June 27, 2008 at 19th.[4]

Synopsis

Ranbeer Talwar (Saif Ali Khan), one of the country's top industrialists, is a loner, not out of his free will but just because he lost everyone he ever loved. In a traffic accident he causes the death of the parents of four children; in a very unusual court verdict, the judge decides that he has to look after the four orphans, two boys and two girls.

The orphans hate him for causing their parents' death and want revenge. They do not want to live with him and make that quite evident, so their life together is very unhappy. One day they pray to God (Rishi Kapoor) for help, who helps them: he sends his most mischievous, childlike, lovable angel to the rescue, with a mission to bring Ranbeer and the kids together as a family.

Geeta (Rani Mukerji) comes cycling down a rainbow and bursts into Ranbeer's house as the self-proclaimed new nanny. She is taken in quite reluctantly by the kids and Ranbeer but with the help of some magic proves to be successful in her mission as one by one the kids warm up to Ranbeer. Also Geeta and Ranbeer fall in love with each other. Having succeeded in her mission, Geeta has to return to heaven and leaves the family. However, she wants to stay on Earth and return to the family, which she is at last allowed to do, and she reunites with the family who were sad about her departure.
