Baabul (Hindi: बाबुल, Urdu: بابُÙ„, English: Father's affection to daughter) is a 2006 Bollywood drama film, directed by Ravi Chopra. The movie stars Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, John Abraham, Hema Malini and Rani Mukerji. The movie was dubbed in Telugu as Premabhishekam. The movie celebrates B. R. Chopra's
50 years in cinema. The movie was praised for the bond shown between
Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan, though it was declared a flop at the
box office due to its poor commercial performance.[1]
One day they decide to go golfing and Balraj accidentally hits the ball which ruins a painting. The young woman painting the picture, Malvika a.k.a. 'Millie' (Rani Mukerji) gets furious with Balraj and leaves. Later on, Avi runs into Millie on the golf course, and they start to talk. Millie tells him that a stupid old man ruined her painting and points out that it was Balraj; but she doesn't know that the 'old man' is Avi's father and he doesn't tell her. They start to hang out together while slowly falling in love with each other.
When Millie comes home, she is visited by her childhood friend Rajat (John Abraham). She tells him that she loves someone, which devastates him because he is also in love with her. One day, Millie goes to Avi's office to drop off a painting and finds out that Balraj is Avi's father. When Avi shows up, she leaves the office crying. He chases after her and says that the only reason he lied to her was because he loves her. She doesn't accept his apology right then, but when Balraj apologizes to her for ruining her painting, she forgives them both.
Avi asks Millie to get dressed up for a party at his house. When she arrives, there is no one except Avi. He proposes to her and she accepts. The whole family visits Millie's house to discuss marriage and everyone agrees, except Rajat. He tells Avi that he will let Avi marry Millie if only he promises to always keep her happy and never let her get sad. Avi and Millie get married and soon they are expecting a child. Millie's birth-pains begin while she is in yoga class. Avi rushes her to the hospital where they are blessed with a healthy baby boy. They name the child Ansh.
Ansh grows up to be a sweet and intelligent boy. The family throws a birthday bash for him on his birthday. They wait for Avi to get back home from work, but he never turns up. He meets with a road accident and dies; Millie is devastated.
Balraj seeks to bring happiness back into his widowed daughter-in-law's life. He gets into contact with Rajat. He learns that Rajat still loves Millie. Balraj asks Rajat to marry Millie. However, there is stiff opposition from Shobhna (Avi's mother) and Balraj's conservative older brother Balwant (Om Puri). Shobhna fears losing her grandson Ansh, while Balwant takes the traditional Indian view that a widow with a child should devote herself to raising her child and think of nothing else, and that a woman marrying twice is committing a mortal sin. However, Balraj stands firm and convinces everyone. In the end, Rajat and Millie get married, and everything is well. Avinash comes in as a spirit and blesses his dad with happiness.

Response
Box office
Baabul opened in Mumbai with occupancy of about 75%, considered remarkably low for a film starring Salman Khan, even if only in a special appearance, and occupancy went downhill very quickly, presumably due to unfavorable word-of-mouth. In the rest of the country, even the opening was dismal and it never picked up. Eventually, the film was declared a flop.[3] The small centres opened to poor response and overall the film did not do quite well in India but was an above average grosser.[4] However it did great business overseas, entering at the 8th position on the UK charts in its first week.[5] It was a big hit in the overseas market.[6]Reviews
Reviews have been generally mixed. Film critic Samrat Sharma for instance put it best when he wrote: "It's a film made for the more traditional generation or social class, and even so, while may not be terribly effective, it is sufficiently well-crafted..."[7]Awards

Frequently Asked Questions

Classic Bollywood melodrama
A reviewer once said
about Bollywood that "if it's a colour, use it" and Baabul is anything
if not colourful. There are lots of what could be euphemistically
described as vibrant colours on screen at any given time. The plot, such
as it is, revolves around love found, love lost and love re-found. All
clocking in at little under three hours, with the characters bursting
into song at the slightest provocation. Some of the choreography for the
song and dance sequences must have taken ages to put together. As usual
in Indian films, kissing is taboo and the romantic sequences are
remarkably chaste by western standards. All the actors should have life
memberships of the academy of over-acting. Emotional nuance is not
really the name of the game here. But the actors sure are good looking,
even those with grandchildren. They seem to have discovered the fountain
of youth. While all of this doesn't sound like a glowing review, points
have to be granted for the sheer positive life-force of this film and
its life affirming message.
