Submitted by Ashok Rao on Sat, 04/11/2009 - 15:19.
Directed and written by V V Kumar, ‘Pal Pal Dil Ke Saath’ is really a box office dud, which completely lacks coherence, logic, reason and most importantly interesting cast.
The film, which stars Ajay Jadeja, Mahi Gill, Satish Shah, Sushma Seth, Vinod Kambli, Sylvie, has absolutely no originality, either in content or in presentation.
Produced under Sukra Arts banner, Pal Pal Dil Ke Saath lacks the basic ethics, and is full of random shots, random scenes, random dialogues and random acting as well.
Given that this is his second film innings, Jadeja cannot even plead innocence in this Pal Pal… case.

The research team, then asked the male volunteers to rate the women for attractiveness purely on the basis of the sound of their voice. They were shown no pictures.
When the pitch of the woman's voice was slightly raised by increasing the playback speed, the attractiveness rating increased.
