About Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi!
As the only employed member of a large family, Aditya Singh a big-hearted mechanic, works hard to provide for his siblings, his grandmother and a bevy of nieces and nephews. But, when he is unexpectedly killed in a car accident, his family's future becomes a murky prospect. Fearful for their safety and happiness, Aditya convinces Yamraj the Hindu god of death, to give him a chance to return -- as a ghost -- to carry out the unresolved business of his life.
Directed by Mahesh Manjrekar, Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi! leans on a strong ensemble — Shahid Kapoor, Sanjay Dutt, Amrita Rao — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2005.
