jaane tu.... ya jaane na

after almost all my friends and family saw this movie and recommended it as a must watch i went to see this movie....and it lived upto or should i say exceeded my expectations......

firstly want to congratulate mr abbas tyrewala for making such a lively movie as a first time director…for treating the movie so well…right from the credits till the last scene of movie

wont dwell too much into the plot of the movie.........as basically this movie does not have any....this is a movie which has excerpts of memory......of incidences.......the memory here is of a bunch of six friends but if we go to see it cud be a memory of any group of friends who sit down and go for a jog down the memory lane........abt those wonderful college days wen all we friends r inseparable....i guess all of us have some group or the other....and all of us surely miss those days where we wud do things jus for the heck of it.....well i am getting diverted here...some of the last couple of sentences belong to the main blog and not to the movie review ,but i guess this is what the movie does to u it takes u back in time...similar to a hangover u cud say.....

well i cud say the story is abt two inseparable best friends jai alias rats (imran khan) and aditi alias meow (genelia d’souza) who initially dont realize they r meant for each other till jai gets a girlfriend and aditi starts feeling neglected , she retaliates by getting engaged and jai feels jealous seeing aditi with someone else….…and they finally realize they r made for each other......but i wud be very unfair if i summarized the entire movie in mere two sentences....

as i said earlier ,the movie belongs to the whole group of friends not just the lead pair….what I liked abt this movie is that even the smallest of roles is well defined…..nobody is there in a movie without reason…no scene or song is extra in the movie…

Bonuses :
Naseeruddin shah as a dead talking husband is too good…..u wait for him to show up in the movie

All the supporting actors r wonderful…

the friends :

Rotlu : karan makhija , bombs : alishka varde , jiggy: nirav Mehta , shaleen :sugandha garg

Amit :prateik babbar (aditi’sbrother) , paresh rawal :inspector waghmare and everyone else too…..

The whole concept of ranjhaur ka rathore (the family jai belongs to) is hilarious and the need to fulfill the 3 duties namely ride a horse…beat someone up…and go to jail at least once

Might sound stupid now…but in movie doesn’t sound dumb…..

The two hooligans (arbaaz and sohail khan) on horses…..

Comedy is good ,very natural….its very well blended into the movie not just some sequences…

Loved the way everything fits in the end…all loose ends r tied up in a very natural way…without it seeming very difficult

The movie is made very innovatively with some plots which r not a major part of story woven very well into the story to make it different from routine story…

No cheap jokes or dialogues…..

The songs r lovely especially “aditi” and “nazrein churana”(the picnic song)….lyrics r lovely and so is the music by a r rahman….

I wished :

There wud be some more interaction between aditi and amit…and what happens to him finally wud have been shown….i felt his was a very interesting character and wanted to see more of him than what was shown……

I loved the movie….watch it without fail…….great going mr tyrewala looking forward to many movies from u…and thank u aamir khan for producing this movie wen it ran into some financial crises…….
