Main Hoon Na (transl. I Am Here) is a 2004 Indian Hindi-language masala film written and directed by Farah Khan in her directorial debut. The film stars Shah Rukh Khan, Sushmita Sen, Sunil Shetty, Amrita Rao and Zayed Khan and follows Ram Sharma (Shah Rukh Khan), an Indian soldier sent undercover as a university student to protect a general's daughter from a rogue soldier.[3]
The film began development in 2001, and faced a number of delays during production. Main Hoon Na is notable for approaching the Indo-Pakistani conflict from a neutral perspective. It was filmed at St. Paul's School and the surrounding state of West Bengal. The film is also the first produced and distributed by Red Chillies Entertainment, and is produced by his wife Gauri Khan. Initially scheduled for release in 2003, Main Hoon Na was released worldwide on 30 April 2004.
The film received generally positive reviews, with praise for its comedy, music, and action sequences. The film set numerous box-office records during its theatrical run, and with over ₹84 crore (US$12 million) in revenue worldwide, it was the second highest-grossing Indian film of 2004, behind Veer-Zaara. Main Hoon Na received 12 nominations at the 50th Filmfare Awards, including those for Best Film, Best Director for Farah Khan, Best Actor for Shah Rukh Khan, Best Supporting Actor for Zayed Khan, and Best Supporting Actress for Rao. It won for Best Music.
The film was remade in Tamil in 2008.[4]
Plot[edit]
To descalate tensions between the two nations, India and Pakistan launch Project Milaap, a prisoner exchange program. Raghavan Dutta, a former Indian soldier discharged for murdering Pakistani citizens in revenge for the murder of his son, shoots his former captain Shekhar Sharma at a press conference. Raghavan founds a militant group with former colleague Khan, set against peace between the countries.
On his deathbed, Shekhar informs his son, fellow soldier Ram, of his illegitimate child Lakshman, and asks Ram to reconcile with his family. Meanwhile, Ram's boss, Amarjeet Bakshi, sends him undercover to protect his daughter Sanjana, who studies at the same university as Lakshman. During a race, Lakshman is saved by Ram from falling from the university's roof. The trio become friends, and Ram moves in with Lakshman and his mother. Outside a cinema, Ram saves his classmate, Percy, from an assassination attempt by Khan; Ram captures him, but his true identity is found out by Raghavan, who arrives at the university masquerading as a teacher.
Ram falls in love with his teacher, Chandni, while Lakshman falls in love with Sanjana. At prom, Raghavan orders a kidnapping on Chandni, but she is saved by Ram. After meeting with Sanjana, Ram requests Raghavan to drop the pair to her father. Raghavan reveals to Lakshman and his mother of Ram's true identity; Ram informs them his father's last wish implored him to reconcile with his family, and is eventually accepted by the pair.
Raghavan then holds the university hostage, demanding the cancelation of Project Milaap. Accompanying Khan, Ram arrives at the university, and is subsequently shot by Khan. A plan by the pair to feign Ram's death, who attempts to free the hostages, results in Khan being killed by Raghavan. Ram then kills Raghavan by removing the pin from Raghavan's hand grenade.

Production[edit]
Development[edit]
The film was planned by Farah Khan and Shahrukh Khan in 2001. The shooting of the film had to begun in October 2001 but later that year, Shahrukh Khan got badly injured while shooting an action sequence for his 2002 film Shakti: The Power due to which he suffered pain in filming for his other projects. He was later sent to England for treatment and the film was subsequently shelved. The film was later revived in 2003 after Shahrukh Khan came back from England; Farah Khan wanted to name it The Outsider. After some of her friends suggested that the title she wants matches that of a 1983 Hollywood film, she finalized the title Main Hoon Na for the film though Shahrukh Khan was unhappy at that time with the title, thinking the title was incomplete, but later changed his mind after listening to the recording of the film's title song.

At a time when the film was revived in 2003, Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar, and Sohail Khan were considered for Lucky's role. Due to unknown reasons, none of the three accepted the film; Zayed Khan was later signed. Ameesha Patel was offered Sanju's role but rejected the character due to date issues, as did then-newcomer Ayesha Takia when she was also approached who also declined, after which Amrita Rao was finalized for the role.
Critical reception[edit]
Film analyst Taran Adarsh praised the film for being funny, emotional and full of action, describing it as 'a wholesome entertainer that has something for everyone.'[5]
Jamie Russell wrote in his review in the BBC, 'A bonkers 'masala' movie, Main Hoon Na could be the mutant offspring of Grease (1978) and The Matrix (1999). Part-thriller, part high-school comedy and all Bollywood musical, it's the directorial debut of Farah Khan.'[6]
Box office[edit]
Main Hoon Na was the second-highest grossing Indian movie of 2004 behind Veer-Zaara (also a Shahrukh Khan-starrer set against India-Pakistan backdrop).[7] It made ₹480 million (US$6.7 million) in India and an additional ₹19 million (US$270,000) in the overseas market.
