Plot[edit]
In Ankert University, California (Assumption University, Bangkok), Alisha (Priyanka Chopra) is the
most beautiful girl on campus with plenty of admirers. Awkward, nerdy Abhay (Uday Chopra) is in
love with her, although she is unaware of his existence. One night Alisha is partying with her friends

and accidentally falls into a river. Abhay jumps in and rescues her from drowning, but her friends
take her away before she regains consciousness. Abhay is further prevented from seeing Alisha the
next day when her outraged father comes to the college and removes her from college.
Abhay nurses dreams of Alisha for seven years as he moves on with his life. He invents a
revolutionary software program that cross integrates every existing operating system. He has a
meeting with an investor to try to sell it, and he excuses himself to call his father and ask for advice.
While he is gone, the investor copies the files onto a drive and steals them. Abhay discovers that this
investor is really unscrupulous software salesman Siddharth 'Siddhu' Singh (Dino Morea) and he is
now marketing the stolen software to a Singaporean firm as his own invention. Abhay journeys to
Singapore to confront Siddhu, but sees Alisha at the company headquarters where she works as
its PR representative. Still besotted, he follows her home and due to a misunderstanding she
mistakes him for a nanny she was expecting from an employment agency. She is now divorced with
an unruly daughter by the name of Tanya, and in search of another nanny, as Tanya drives every
one away. Abhay decides to become Tanya's nanny and keeps his identity a secret in order to stay
close to Alisha.
Abhay takes care of her house mostly by paying contractors to clean it for him and eventually wins
over Tanya when he buys her the Rockband video game so she can become a rockstar. Tanya
nicknames him "Froggy" because of his nerdy looks. Things become complicated when Siddhu
shows up trying to romance Alisha and sells the stolen software to her company. Abhay finds out that
Siddharth's real name is Varun Sanghvi and tries to hide from Varun even while he grows closer to
Alisha; she confides in Abhay and he dresses her up in glasses and old clothes to show her how
differently people are treated when they appear to be unattractive. Alisha feels sorry for Abhay.
As the launch date for the software approaches, Abhay is unmasked by Varun who claims he is a
delusional stalker and was never a nanny. Alisha is angry that he lied and orders Abhay out of the
house without giving him a chance to explain. However, she finds out from her daughter that Abhay
is the mysterious person who rescued her in college; she also realizes that when Abhay told her
about the girl he loved in college for seven years, he was talking about her. Alisha finds Abhay and
apologizes to him saying that she has fallen in love with him. Abhay then tells her that he was the
one who created the software for which Varun is taking all the credit. They rush to the software
launch to stop Varun who is easily discredited when he doesn't know the password to Abhay's
software. Abhay is able to prove that it is his creation by entering the password. Abhay tells Alisha
that she already knows the password; it is her name: A-L-I-S-H-A. Alisha and Abhay live happily with
Tanya.

Reception[edit]
Critical reception[edit]
The film has received negative to mixed reviews. Anupama Chopra, Consulting Editor,
NDTVMovies.com finds the movie "depressingly dim-witted". [1] Rajeev Masand called it "painfully
predictable" and gave it one out of five stars.[2] Conversely, Bollywood Hungama said, "A love story
works if you fall in love with the on-screen characters and also if it knocks on the doors of your
heart. Pyaar Impossible does that. [It] may not be the ultimate romantic film, but you can't deny the
fact that there's something about this film that stays with you, that you carry home... sorry, carry in
your heart."[3] Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India gave it three stars out of five, arguing that the
strength of the movie lay in its intense performances, something that overcame the weak storyline. [4]
Among US critics, Frank Lovece of The Hollywood Reporter said the "predictable Bollywood
romantic comedy sinks under the weight of Uday Chopra, a charmless leading man with a small
range of expressions", but praised the director, who "keeps both romantic complications and
corporate shenanigans moving along at a good, grounded clip, and his experience as a former child
actor probably helped wickedly precocious newcomer Advika Yadav, who as a 6-year-old romantic
mastermind steals her scenes with conviction."[5]Rachel Saltz of The New York Times said the film
"shouldnt work, but does. It's sweet, and as formula goes, deftly done and satisfying," and called
Priyanka Chopra "one of the most likable of the new crop of Hindi film stars. She is an effortless
comedian...."[6]

Pyaar Impossible! made about Rs. 5.50 Crore.[7]
