If you go in expecting another Black, you will be disappointed. But I enjoyed it tremendously for its simple tale of unrequited young love. The emphasis is on "unrequited" and "young", which sets this film apart. It's the type of film that takes time to understand, not of the instant gratification variety. You feel a bit of a void after it is over - my wife thought it was depressing at first - but once you discuss the characters' motivations and the ending, you'll feel it all makes sense. And as to the question of who is the star of the movie, the answer is unequivocally RANI MUKHERJEE. She gives layers and nuances to the Gulabji character that were sorely missing in her recent Laaga Cinema Mein Boredom.
