Before Sunrise (1995)  is a story of a young American and  a young French woman, who meet on a train and disembark in Vienna ,where they spend the night walking around the city and getting to know each other.

After 18 years Preity Zinta and Prem Raj come with a similar story where two strangers meet on a train from Rome to Paris and while chatting on board decide to spend an evening together in Paris , but with a commitment that afterwards they will never meet . 

Prem Raj who made his debut with Main Aurr Mrs Khanna has once again failed to click with the audience. I think in future he should let some expert writer write the story and just focus on the direction.

Preity Zinta was last seen in a small role in   Heroes (2008) . At 38 ,she has unsuccessfully  tried to relive the young and bubbly characters she played in  Dil Chahta Hai (2001) and  Salaam Namaste (2005) .

Rhehan who became popular in the role of Dr. Rahul Mehra in the tele-series Sanjivani  ,looked good  but the story was so simple that his role had no scope of giving any memorable performance.

Salman Khan 's dance no. ' Kudiye di Kurti ' was totally wasted as not even Salman's fans dared to watch this film in theaters .He must have done it to return the favor when Preity did an item no. in his film Main aur Mrs. Khanna.
  
Chunkey Pandey and Shekhar Kapoor in their 1 min roles were totally forgettable.

Though the film has flopped at the box office the producers won't make much loss as Colors has bought the film's satellite rights .
In a line with so many good romantic Hollywood and Bollywood films to choose from it's a waste of time to watch this average romance.
Not worth spending money on. Can be seen when it's aired on TV .

Rank - 19 (Out of the 28 films I have seen in 2013)
