This is the story of Pooja Kashyap (Karisma Kapoor), Shiv Kapoor (Abhishek Bachchan) and Raj Malhotra (Akshay Kumar).Its a story of the tangled storm of emotions that assails when one experience the magic of love.
Pooja is bright and beautiful and strives to be the best, the first among equals. But she’s also a romantic and an idealist who is willing and ready to give up her exciting career for the sake of true love. But she forgets that there is a very thin line between ardent love and obsession.
Shiv is equally ambitious and competitive, but he’s also a cool and laid-back sort of guy who takes life as it comes. Little does he realise that one moment of thoughtless passion will destroy all that is most precious to him and change his life forever.

Raj has the world at his feet. He has money, fame, adulation. The only thing lacking in his life is love and stability. He seeks a love that is tender and pure as it is dignified and graceful. And he is sure that one day he will get it.
Pooja, Shiv and Raj. Three individuals thrown together by destiny to play the fascinating game of love in an arena full of emotional turmoil and upheaval.
A chance encounter with a college friend (Simone Singh) leads to an accidental eruption of passion and all hell breaks loose. The relationship between Shiv and Pooja snaps. That marks the end of a reasonably well-controlled, if a trifle low-key, first half.
But second half of the film slips away.Raj Malhotra (Akshay Kumar), enters the scene and hires Pooja as his secretary. The lonesome celebrity thirsts for love and companionship and Pooja raises visions of bliss. The rest is blah blah.
A substantial portion of Haan Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya is shot on picturesque locations in Switzerland and that's the only highlight of the movie.
The film is worth for Abhishek Bachchan. Abhishek's face and body are still somewhat stiff, but his expressive eyes convey a lot, as does his vulnerability-laced voice.
Other than that the movie is worth a miss.
