Yaadein (2001 film)

Memories) is a 2001 Indian Hindi-language musical drama film written, directed, edited and produced by Subhash Ghai.

Lalit and his wife Nalini's (Supriya Karnik) busy lifestyles have little time for their son, Ronit (Hrithik Roshan), who opposes his family's greed and wants a simpler life since his childhood comes to regard his "uncle" Raj and late "aunt" Shalini as his adoptive parents.

Meanwhile Ronit who was always disinterested to join the family business, opens his own successful website for finding friends and prospective matches with his group.

After a few weeks of living with her in-laws and bearing their taunts and abuse even after Raj fulfilling all of their dowry demands, Saania returns home begging for a divorce but eventually reconciles with Sukant after he secures a job at Malhotras and the Puri family along with Pankaj and Sukant moves back to London.

Raj is shocked when Isha asks for his blessing to marry Ronit, his loyalties to the Malhotra and Rai families making him feel guilty.

Overcome with emotion, he ends up injuring himself in an accident, upsetting Isha and her giving up on her feelings by claiming it to be her and Ronit's "prank".

Though sympathetic to Isha's feelings, Raj informs her of Ronit's planned engagement and explains that she would never find acceptance as a daughter-in-law in the Malhotra family, due to their obsession with money.

After fleeing he reaches Puri's home where Avantika asks Isha to meet him seeing him injured and they elope after reconciling, sending the Malhotras into a panic.

Subhash Ghai wanted A. R. Rahman to compose for the film, but the latter declined the offer, since he was busy with the work of Bombay Dreams.
