Movie Review :Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na

Yes its finally here. The first non Aamir khan starrer Aamir khan production introducing his nephew Imran Khan is finally out and so is the verdict. The movie promises to provide the freshness to the youth who have been on the complaining end for not getting a Worth seeing love story for so long. The movie which was feared to face stiff competition from Love story 2050 seems to be the winner no only bcoz the latter one came out to be as dud but also becoz of the way Jaane Tu.... is portrayed. The movie which seems to move in a roller coaster way gives a new look to a simple yet sweet love story.

As usual the story first. Jai(Imran) and Aditi(Genelia) are best friends among the group of 6. They both value their friendship more than anything else with a unique pair of a non-violent sweet Jai and Violent, aggressive and tough Aditi. Aditi is a daughter of a rich parents and sister of a non working lonely brother Amit while Jai is the son of late Amar Singh Rathod(Naseerudin Shah) , the king of Ranjhor and Savitri(Ratna pathak) who doesn want his son to be like his father and argues everyday with the portrait of her dead husband. Their closeness makes everyone think that they are in love but they strongly deny it. They even decide to setup dates for each other. Jai finds Meghna and their love starts to bloom but Aditi starts to feel insecure and is still unsure why is that.Aditi also finds someone a tough guy in the form of Sushant but is still unhappy and doesn realize that she's in love with Jai.Meanwhile Jai's father wishes that his son completes the three conditions reqd. to be a true Rathod. What happens when they both finally realize this and whether they finally confess about it or not is what u all have to watch for.

Now the main part of the verdict. The story is a simple one but the way it’s shown brings a whole lot of freshness in it .The whole bunch of debutants provide the youthness to the movie. Imran delivers an honest performance and provides some mind blowing scenes along with some not so good ones. Genelia seems good in the first half but lacks the brilliance in emotional scenes but will surely improve and seems to have a good future in the industry. The rest of the gang is brilliant and the best part is the chemistry amongst them. The jai-Aditi chemistry is mind blowing. One of the best performances of the movie is given by the real life couple Naseerudin and Ratna. They provide some mind blowing scenes and lift the movie whenever it seems sinking.Another person to look out for is Prateik Babbar who plays Aditi's brother and delivers a mind blowing performance with some outstanding expressions. The other guest appearances are good and the one to look out for are that of the khan brothers who have been equipped with some awesome lines. The dialogues are good (expected from Abbas tyrewala) and the direction is fine despite some amateurish clichés. The movie provides some really great moments which make u smile and give u moments which make u feel sleepy .The movie is definitely youth oriented and does succeed to keep u smiling for most part of it .The music is good and it makes complete sense with the sequence of events. Good job Mr. Rahman! The problem comes in the story and some monotonous sequence of events .The movie doesn seem to be well edited and the direction seems to let the movie down in between. Despite some good performances, u r made to see some “debutant” type actings and are made to compromise since most of the characters are not so established in the industry. Another problem is the climax. Though it seems to end on a funny note but it’s the typical Airport cliché sequence and could have been improved .The cinematography is not great either. The movie is definitely not for all genres and is strictly a NO for the emotional cinema liking people. All in all it’s a one time watchable cute –fresh love story with some good debut performances.


To Go Or Not-A must watch for the people in affair and for most of the youth. One time watchable for the rest.U won’t be disappointed with it


My rating- 3.0/5
