Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na Movie Review!
Posted On Thursday, July 3, 2008 at at 10:13 PM by Pat
Post Taare Zameen Par, Aamir raised expectations on his next films and out came a surprise. Welcome Mr Imran Khan the latest addition to the Khan Bollywood World.The latest offerring of the Aamir Khan production is Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and has already managed publicity with Aamir doing what he never did!
The movie released today and here is our version of the movie.
Story:
While Jaane Tu is Imran’s debut vehicle, it is really Genelia who steals the show. Mr Imran is quite a poor actor it seems and as per my understanding which says he is trained in a London school for acting I believe this is his not-so-good version. The actress is a real livewire on screen and conveys those annoying feelings of jealousy, confusion, irritability and fake happiness without any problem.She is really sexy and pimps up her body even when conevying other feelings making her portary as the real college girl.The rest is college stuff which every person might have experienced in their life and usual direction in Munnabhai style.
Within the gang, who sport very Mumbai nicknames such as Rats (Jai), Meow (Aditi), Bombs (Sandhya), Jiggy (Jignesh), the guys fare much better than the girls. Jiggy delights as the Gujju while Rotlu and Bombs together are smashing as the couple who discover each other as soul mates when left solo by their crushes, Jai and Aditi.
Supporting cast members like Ratna Pathak Shah as Jai’s mum, Paresh Rawal as the police inspector, Naseeruddin Shah, as Jai’s dead Rajput father who speaks from his portrait hold, fort magnificently.
Even the sub-plot of Jai’s rite of passage as a true male Rathore from Ranjhore family by fulfilling three conditions - beating up a person, spending time in jail and riding a horse - is largely saved and made palatable by way of the safe casting of the Shahs and Arbaaz and Sohail Khan, who appear as Rathore boys in the guise of dancing cowboys.
Its not a story which never heard or seen but then just like aamir said, It does revive good old college days and bring us a nice love story..
Overall it is just a usual Bollywood college movie and nothing exceptional apart from some pretty faces.
Performances:
Coming to acting, every character has performed well enough.
Debutant Imran looks cool and acting is admirable though we wanted more after all the hype around him.
I am not too much in favour of Genelia but still she was good in the movie...probably Katrina would have done better it seems now as I write this review.
It's a love story we all have seen earlier as well and looks boring in stages but Abbas Tyrewala made it in such a way that movie looks fresh and touching thanks to some comedy P.J.'s and their cute presentation.
Music: Was as expected and well picturized have seen many promos so was quite familiar. Imran would surely notch up a decent hit with this debut. The movie will surely have a decent opening as it appeals college people who are being tired of movies lately.
Overall a sweet movie..
PS: The theatrical promo of rock on has shown arjun rampal starring with farhan akthar for the first time.
Rating-3/5 (Low on expectations but good!)
One line review-College people this is for you!
