Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa (1993)

Synopsis:
Sunil (Shahrukh Khan) is a lost cause in his father Vinayak's (Anjan Srivastav) mind. Sunil and his friends have started a band. When Anna (Suchitra Krishnamoorthi), his childhood friend, joins the group, everyone is excited, especially Sunil, who secretly loves Anna. The only other person knowing this is his sister (Sadia Siddiqui). As Anna joins the group, they start hunting opportunities to make it big in the music world. Chris (Deepak Tijori), a friend and band member, is Sunil's antithesis. Chris is the son of an affluent couple, in contrast to Sunil, who is son of a middle-class man. Chris has a better academic record, while Sunil just faked his marksheet to hide the fact that he failed.

In short, any girl's parents would choose Chris over Sunil. Anna's father does just that. Sunil tries to change his image but when he learns that Anna loves Chris, he is devastated. Anna and Chris start hanging out. A jealous Sunil starts misguiding them against each other. He succeeds in creating a rift between the two but eventually gets caught. Anna slaps him and walks away. Gradually, the duo forgive Sunil, but they don't realize why he did this. Sunil's fortune takes a turn once again when Chris's parents refuse the marriage of Chris and Anna, because Anna is from a lower class. Chris has to leave Anna devastated. Sunil consoles Anna in this period. Anna has no other option but to marry Sunil. The wedding is fixed. Sunil is happy, until he realizes that Anna still loves Chris. Sunil decides to re-unite them. The Sullivan's too realize their mistake. Chris and Anna's wedding is announced: Sunil gets to be the best man.

As Chris and Anna are about to exchange rings, Chris's ring slips out of his hand. Everybody starts searching for it. Whoever gets the ring can claim Anna's hand. So, Sunil gets one more chance. Sunil spots the ring but feigns ignorance. Chris finally "finds" the ring and marries Anna. Just after the wedding, Sunil is shown packing his bags and leaving his father's home to find his own destiny. Vinayak, who knows the background story, makes up with his son, stating that he is proud to be Sunil's father. Sunil is seen walking in moonlight, where he meets a girl (Juhi Chawla). Some time later, Sunil and the girl are seen walking in the moonlight and talking merrily. Anthony (Goga Kapoor) and Bosco (Virendra Saxena), two criminals who had seen Sunil and his group's show, see Sunil with the new girl and break the fourth wall saying that Sunil will be all right. The criminals hear a police siren and scamper away.
