Yuvraj Movie Review
The movie has a big star line up with Anil Kapoor, Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif and Boman Irani playing the lead characters. The movie is very important for Subhash Ghai as his last few directorial ventures had been losing propositions. Especially his last movie, Kisna, a Vivek Oberoi starrer had sunk at the box office. Yuvraj is expected to arrive some time in early 2008.
Yuvvraaj basically begins as the story of Deven Yuvraaj (Salman) who is madly in love with Anushka (Katrina). He is a chorus singer where and she is a cello player in a musical group based in Prague. Her rich dad Mr. Banton (Boman) is completely against marrying her off to Deven given his poor financial condition and tormenting past. Deven is the son of a London based multi billionaire, Yogendra Yuvraaj (Javed Sheikh) who was thrown out of the house by him for beating up his dim-wit older step brother, Gyanesh (Anil) when young.

He gets under the impression that now he will be inherit a part of his late father’s huge empire.
