Plot[edit]
Saawan... The Love Season tells the story of a couple, Raj and Kajal. They get married, and when they come back from their Honeymoon in Patiala, Kajal finds a man who predicts the future. Whether it's the death of a person at 9 p.m. or a major accident on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, the man knows it all. He's a modern-day Nostradamus. When Kajal asks him about her future, he tells her she'd die two days later. Obviously, Kajal is shattered, she tells Raj who swears if anything happens to her, he would kill the Nostradamus. On the fateful day, Kajal is mistakenly shot by the cops outside a shopping mall and dies. Raj blames the Nostradamus for it, breaks into his house, bashes him black and blue and Nostradamus dies. As Nostradamus dies, he predicts his own death. When Nostradamus dies, Kajal, who is already pronounced dead, wakes up. She's alive now. She falls in love with Raj all over again, and with the help of Raj's friend Funsukh and his admirer, the couple get remarried and they live happily ever after.

Reception[edit]
Taran Adarsh of IndiaFM gave the film 1 out of 5, writing, "On the whole, SAAWAN - THE LOVE SEASON is a weak fare, which has some scope at the single screens and in the Hindi belt primarily due to Salman's star presence. That's it![3] Patcy N of Rediff gave the film 1 out of 5, writing, "Saaawan is full of flaws. It is also badly written and badly directed. The choreography is bearable but the music is lousy. The two newcomers – Aswani and Jhaveri – put in okay performances."[4]
