Very good music, superb performance from Ranbir, Nargis looking beautiful in every frame, exotic locations and strong emotional story - All these come together to create a cinematic classic.
Jordan[JJ] is lost in his own world till he meets Heer. Unknowingly they come together, become friends and Heer becomes all he thinks about. He does not realize the inevitable and everything is all fun to begin with. Heer gets married and Jordan is back in his life doing nothing overtly significant. After sometime, he meets her again and the chemistry takes control of them. Due to the social pressures, Heer forces him out of her life. She does what the society wants her to do, not what her heart longs for. He doesnt realize what has struck him and sometimes just stays in denial.
The pain translates his thoughts to musical excellence. Heer is his inspiration and his grief. Contempt for the rules of the society is in his heart, his heart alone amidst crowds. He has success, money, fame, but he is not happy, as his only happiness, Heer, is shunted out of his life. He wants her, can sacrifice everything for her, but she is beyond him.
Heer choose a sedate way of life, gets married, has a family and the materialistic comforts. But deep inside, Heer longs for her happiness, that relationship - where she could be crazy, do crazy, do it all she wants, go anywhere she wants, with someone she loves - someone whose only thought is, to be with her, forever. Away she suffers amidst all the proverbial good things. She tries to live a contented life doing all the "right things", but still that bliss of happiness eludes her.
Finally, they meet and all seems to be well again, until... Heer has suffered too much and for too long and now even her love cant get her back. Heer is in coma and Jordan lives to render music from his vailing heart. Circumstances have ensured the "Rockstar" will always be in pain. The opportunity is lost on them.

All the range of emotions from dont-know-what-to-do, just-want-to-be-with-you, longing-to-see-you, dont-want-this-life-without-you, will-be-with-you-forever, are supremely portrayed by Ranbir who gives a spectacular performance. Nargis looking lovely all across the movie, and has delivered quite well in patches. Music is one the Highlights of this movie. Rahman has come with really amazing music. This is the best movie in 2011 by a long long way.
