Hmmm, these are some of the scenes that kept lingering in my head...

1. When Paro meets her new family... Especially her step son in law,
where he purposely grabbed her feet, then she pulled his ear... Man,
if I was in her shoes, I'd do the same thing.

2. Morey Piya and the confrontation that came later. Wow, how did
Aish manage to balance that 'thing' on her head, while having
Shahrukh teasing her like that?

3. When Devdas asked the Panditji to perform his own funeral... I got
tears in my eyes when I saw that one.

4. Kaahe Ched and Maar Daala... Do I have to say more??? :)

5. Madhuri's scene w/srk when she asks if she will ever see him
again...knowing what the actual anwser to this really is....Yep, that
was really good. And when he finally said her name "Chandramukhi..."
Wow, Madhuri's face says it all... Damn, they were really good!

Like you said Minu, we can just go on...
