Lakshya, I saw the movie for the second time yesterday and it was now that it made more impact on me compared to when I saw it in 2004.
The movie is about a confused, indecisive, affluent lad who decides to join army only because his friend is joining the same, who eventually backs out. Karan (Hrithik) goes through the difficult training only to run away from the campus of Indian Military Academy(IMA). Once back home Romila (Preity) makes him realise that he has lost respect by doing so. He joins back IMA and graduates out as Captain Karan Shergill.

He is deputed to Ladhakh and there is where he finds a meaning to his existence.
On the otherside Romila becomes a nes correspondent in Global News and is engaged to a business man. She breaks the engagement later due to her difference in opinion with Rajiv. Comes to Kargil and meets Karan......

The movie make me realise that its the normal college going people who eventually make the difference... as it can be any person who makes a difference at some point of time and life is all about decisions. Its decisions that give your life a meaning.

The only alteration I would have wished in the movie is Romila's character, the story made me lose respect for her. I being the script writer wouldn't have written her engagement peice.

Over all its a grreat movie.
Verdict: Please Watch!!!
