Suri is a simple, shy, God-fearing man who works at the Punjab Power Corporation. After a tragic accident takes his mentor’s life, Suri marries the mentor’s bubbly, young daughter, (Anushka Sharma in her dream debut).

It sounds like a sitcom, but Shah Rukh Khan plays the desperation so rawly that you feel every second of the deception. Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi asks a brutal question: Would you change who you are to be loved? If you haven’t seen the full movie, stop reading now (go watch it!). But for the veterans, you know the magic of the dance-off.

The heartbreak is deliciously painful: Taani begins to fall for Raj (the fake persona), while simultaneously ignoring Suri (the real, good man in front of her).

Taani doesn’t love him. She respects him, but her heart is broken. She wants the dancing, spontaneous, fun-loving guy—the exact opposite of her quiet husband.
