What happens

Akele Hum Akele Tum (transl. I'm Alone, You're Alone) is a 1995 Indian Hindi-language musical romantic drama film starring Aamir Khan, Manisha Koirala, and Master Adil. It was directed by Mansoor Khan. The music is by Anu Malik and the lyrics are by Majrooh Sultanpuri. The film is loosely based on the 1979 American film Kramer vs. Kramer. Both Aamir Khan and Manisha Koirala's performances were acclaimed; the latter also received a nomination in the Best Actress category at the 41st Filmfare Awards. Upon release, the film faced competition from Ram Jaane but it did well at the box office. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
