Plot

The film focuses on Donsai (Fardeen Khan), the heir to Dhanraj Empire. Donsai is extremely against marriage; and believes one should never ruin his life by getting married. After the passing of his father, the only way to inherit his father's five billion empire company, is to get married to his friend's Punjabi daughter, Samarpreet (Ishita Sharma). Donsai gets married in Punjab, and tells Samarpreet that he will return to Punjab after three months of business, though Donsai plans not to come back. After three months, Samarpreet comes to Donsai's home to look for him, where she finds him with another woman. She runs out crying, until she is hit by a car. The car owner, Shimmer (Sushmita Sen) picks her up, and takes Samarpreet to her home. When they get to Shimmer's home, it turns out Shimmer is one of Donsai's best friends. After Samarpreet gains consciousness, she tells Shimmer everything Donsai did to her. Shimmer decides to help Samarpreet, and gives her a complete makeover. She even changes her name to "Samara". After Donsai sees Samara (not knowing that it is his own wife), starts to love her. He invites her to his yacht, and decides to propose to her there. At the same time, Shimmer's plan is ruined, where her boyfriend P.R.G (Shahrukh Khan) turns up unexpectidly for Karwa Chauth. P.R.G offers to help out in the plan as well. At the yacht, Donsai realizes that Samara is actually his wife, and the two hug each other. P.R.G and Shimmer, and Donsai-Samara get married.

Production

Casting

Shahrukh Khan was set to make a 60-minute appearance in the film. He filmed about 17 scenes and three songs. Among the three, one is his entry sequence. Khan enters the film in the second half but has a very powerful role. He was a part of the publicity but only within the parameters of his role. The film was not marketed as a Shahrukh Khan film.[4] Sushmita plays the role of a successful supermodel called Shimmer.[5]

Filming

About half of the movie was shot in Amritsar and Mumbai. The other half was filmed in Trinidad and Tobago over a month and a half period in 2007, making it the first Bollywood film to be shot in the islands.[6] Production was delayed a year and a half while Shahrukh Khan found time to shoot his scenes. Production was further delayed when Khan injured his shoulder during an action scene.[7]

Critical response

The reviews to the film were mostly all negative, blaming the script and lack of comedy. The film had a poor opening. Although it stayed in cinemas for a few weeks, the film was declared a flop.

Box office

Dulha Mil Gaya made only Rs. 3 crores in India.[8][9] Box office India declared it a flop.[10]

In Trinidad and Tobago, probably because the film was filmed there, the film was a success and ran for several weeks in packed cinema houses.[11]
