Chori Chori Chupke Chupke

This is another lovely Indian film, a part of this film was borrowed from Pretty Woman.
Raj Malhotra (Salman Khan) and Priya (Rani Mukerji) are members of high society. They meet, got married and soon Priya falls pregnant, but loses her child due to a domestic accident and becomes infertile. The couple conceal this fact (through the advice of the doctor), and decide to secretly look for a surrogate mother to bear Raj's child. Raj comes across Madhubala aka Madhu (Preity Zinta), who is a prostitute and agrees to have Raj's baby - she is only doing it for the money. Raj conceals the fact that Madhu is a prostitute from Priya. After some much needed grooming, Madhu meets Priya and they all leave for Switzerland together to carry out their plan.
Soon enough Madhu become pregnant with Raj's child, and he happily tells his family that Priya is expecting (though actually she is not). Madhu is harassed by Raj's business partner who asks her for sexual favours. She is ready to leave the house, upset by the fact that Raj told his friend that she is a prostitute (though he really didn't). It takes Priya in order to convince Madhu not to leave, she also happens to hear about Madhu's profession but she feels that Madhu is still the right girl for their problem. Raj's business partner ends up assaulting Madhu whilst she is in the house alone, however Raj saves her. His kindness overwhelms her and she falls in love with him.
Raj's family unexpectedly end up coming to Switzerland. Their sudden arrival means that Priya has to fake her pregnancy so they use a pillow to make it look as if she is pregnant. The family also meets the heavily pregnant Madhu. Raj manages to convince the family that Madhu's husband has left her in his care. Raj's grandfather (Amrish Puri) arranges a religious ceremony and tells Raj and Priya that they are going back to India; this also includes Madhu.
The ceremony is very important so Priya instead sends Madhu as herself as she is the one carrying the baby. The emotion at the ceremony is too much for her and Madhu cannot bear the fact that she will have to give up her child. Priya finds Madhu's room empty, with the money given to her dumped on the bed and pursues her to the train station. Madhu tells Priya that she loves Raj, this angers Priya and she slaps her. Raj ends up at the train station, and sees that Madhu has gone into an early labour. The doctor announces that only one of the two can be saved - Madhu or her child. Priya asks the doctor to save Madhu. To everybody's joy both the baby and Madhu are saved and she gives her child to Priya. Priya quickly lays down in her fake hospital room and the doctors bring "her" the baby and while Madhu comes and visits, the doctor tells the family that "her" child had died as soon as she gave birth.
Madhu decides to leave and promises Raj that she will not go back to her old profession. When he takes her to the airport he realizes that she loved him and kisses her on the forehead. Madhu leaves happily able to carry on with her life.

La Ravancha

After their father's murder, young sisters Isabela and Soledad are separated. Isabela grows up in a world of luxury, provided for by her godfather, who adopted her; Soledad is raised by a woman she wrongly believes to be her mother, and who was actually a witness to the girl's father's murder. To protect her, she ran away with the child and has brought her up in a humble but loving home. Both sisters grew up to become beautiful women, never suspecting that destiny will one day reunite them to fight for the love of the same man. He is the distinguished cardiologist Alejandro Arciniegas, whom Soledad met on the cruise ship where she works. From the very beginning, Alejandro and Soledad fell madly in love with each other, without giving a thought to their social differences.

For Soledad, he is the love of her life, but she will painfully discover that Alejandro is the son of the man who murdered her father. And furthermore, that she has a very strong rival: her unknown sister Isabela, who also happens to be in love with Alejandro. At the same time, Jose Luis Hernandez, a humble and hard-working young man becomes obsessed with the idea of winning Soledad's heart. Unfortunately for him, Soledad's love for Alejandro only grows, as does Isabela's jealousy - an uncontrollable jealousy that will ultimately unleash a terrible force of hate and passion.

I will post the summary for you to read very soon.

BAGHBAN

Starring
Amitabh Bachchan as Raj Malhotra
Hema Malini as Pooja
Salman Khan as Alok

There is a saying that parents take care of their children when they are young and growing up. But when the children step into responsible life, it is their turn to take care of their parents.

The movie tells the story of Raj Malhotra [Amitabh Bachchan], his wife Pooja [Hema Malini] and their four sons [Aman Verma, Samir Soni, Sahil Chadda, Nasir]. Raj has a flourishing job as an ICICI employee and his earnings are enough to keep the whole family going.

But Raj is in his old age and now wants to spend ample time with his wife. Even after 40 years of their marriage. Raj and Pooja are very much in love with each other. like a gardener, Raj has nursed his family of four children with the hope that one day he and his wife will have comfortable life.

But fate has something else in store for the couple. Raj takes premature retirement from his job to spend more time with his wife. The responsibility to take care of the couple now falls onto their sons.

But none of them are willing to do so, particularly when they realize that their father has no money left. So the Malhotra children come up with a solution – the father would live with the eldest [Aman], the mother with the second son [Samir]. And after six months, they would shift to the third and fourth sons [Sahil, Nasir].

Raj is not happy with the idea as it means separation from Pooja. It is only a matter of time when their children start ill-treating them.

This is when the couple’s adopted son Alok (Salman Khan) steps in. Even though he is not born of them, Alok loves Raj and Pooja like deities.

Time passes and one day, fortune turns in favor of Raj and Pooja. And that is when the greedy sons realize their mistakes and come back to their parents asking for forgiveness.

Baghban is rich in emotional drama that is likely to reduce a viewer to tears.

On the whole Baghban is a healthy family entertainer that takes a look at the lives of parents who are left in lurch in their old age to fend for themselves by their children.
