So when do you know its love?? . . . 2 hours and 20 mins after the movie starts. Yeah but we knew all along! JAANE TU YA JAANE NA is the latest offering from Aamir Khan productions. Its about two close two friends who realize that they love each other when they are with someone else. Screwing up the emotions of few innocent characters and jealousy ensues.
The story of two friends in love with each other who doesn’t realize it until one of them is with someone else is probably the oldest plot in the movie industry. But somehow Abbas makes us leave the movie hall with a smile on our face.
Jai singh rathod and Aditi are two close friends… so close that even their parents think that it is love and wants the pair to marry each other. But no, the two say that they are just friends and to prove the point they decide to help each other out in finding the perfect pair to each other. Enter Meghna… who falls inlove with Jai and Sushanth who is a family friend of Aditi who as expected falls for Aditi. It is then the two friends realize that they love each other. As expected poor Meghna and Sushant are sent out of their lives and the movie.
This movie has nothing new to share but the script has enough little that’ll keep you engaged. Like Jai’s non violence… Aditi’s charm… Amar singh Rathod… The two Brothers from Rajasthan… The zorro…etc. I am not going to reveal all the things that I felt were great about the movie because it’ll ruin your experience.
But watch out for scenes like the one where Jai confesses to meghna …Jai at Sushant’s residence before the climax… The last horse ride…The brothers and Jai in jail etc. Imran makes a debut in a role that doesn’t really need him to struggle with lot of emotions. He does a good job and the guy is all natural in comedy. Genelia D’Souza performs her role with flair. Charming and energetic. All their friends are ok so are the parents. The talking portrait was cool. The inspector is fine.
The movie mainly suffers from the narration which is just like Chalte Chalte movie. Honestly we could’ve done without Jiggy’s girlfriend getting so excited [in other words getting on my nerves] and involved in the narrated story. The first half goes ok with quite a few laughs. The second half troubled me a lot with the movie going nowhere even when it is going somewhere ...it is predictable till the finale. The movie was outstanding right from the point where Jai goes to Sushant’s house. The movie ends in airport like most movies of this genre but only the concept was bad but the execution was funny enough to forgive that. The last 25 mins of the movie was one of the highest plus points of the movie.
Story and the script had nothing new to offer but writer director Abbas has few concepts that bring laughs and enjoyment. Music is one of the biggest plus for the movie. A.R. Rehman… when will he do something bad?? The girl as Meghna looked pretty but why on earth should those characters should always be such stupids?? When they were playing what’s this? Game I was sitting in the theatre and asking the same question… What’s this???
Apart from the predictable plot and few boring scenes that involve the old crap of jealousy the movie was enjoyable for the rest in parts and I recommend that everyone should give it a try. Considering the fact that this movie has opposition from a movie that Even George Lucas will be proud of (Lovestory 2050) I think people have no other choice than watching jaane tu ya jaane na
RATING : 6/10
- V
P.S : ‘Kabhi kabhi Aditi’ was a great song… but was that song sung because of a dead cat or was it just my nightmare?? No… they did sing it because Aditi’s cat was dead.
