Didn't heear much about this film, starring Bobby Deol Amisha Patel Arjun Ramphal, before, or even if heard about it a few yrs back had forgotten. Just saw TV promotional clips of a few upcoming films and clips/ songs from this film looks promising.
This forgotten film may very well be a surprise Hit. Why:
-This film got stuck as it's director Bunty Soorma died during first shooting schedule.
Later, Vikram Bhatt took over.
-It has blessings from King Khan, who despite having no connection to the film, kept encoraging this film.
Quote:
http://www.indiafm.com/news/2005/08/10/5609/index.htmlWhat prompted SRK to step in? “He kept track of the film all the while, he used to enquire about its progress. He even viewed portions of the film and has been supportive all through, though he has no stake in the film,†Aly reveals.
There’s talk that SRK has spoken to some distributors, so that Bunty’s unfinished dream finally comes true. “He has been guiding us without any ulterior motive. What more could we ask for?†Aly states humbly.
-Bobby Deol's current release DOSTI seems to have hit the marquee, and hence sure will help prospects of HTPS. Manisha, even though not heard much about, has given many Hits.
-Its music is not rated highly (

Remember Bobby-Amisha's HUMRAAZ, this film's music is equally mellodious. It's CD must have been available for a while, but I never heard of it. Will get it soon now.

I know, it's not a hot film or the stars, but I predict to be a Hit or at least above average. For fun, try your instincts predicting Hit/ Average/ Flop.
