Jab We Met

Last week, I saw the movie ‘Jab We Met’ most talked about because of the break up of Kareena and Shahid, who play the leading role in the film. There break up hit the national news because it was of such importance to the Indian film fanatic fraternity. And luckily this did help the movie do well in the theater, which made excellent collections at the box office.

The movie was no doubt well made with good performances by kareena and shahid, while kareena looking less of her chameli image for the first time and shahid my-my, after watching this film every girl must be wanting to marry him and that includes me too.

The storyline of the movie was of-course clichéd, we must have seen various hindi movies where the girl and guy meet in a train or during a journey, first they hate each other then eventually realizes this love when they are moving apart, etc., etc. yet the movie offers something different may be it’s the shahid-kareena ‘chemistry’, awesome music, well written scenes and of-course the raw Punjabi culture which ads a ting to the story. Thanks to all this you never feel bore in the film or find it repetitive anywhere.

Yet, it makes me wonder that whatever shown in the movie how far it is close to real life, though this is not a criteria for judging a film, because nothing is impossible in Hindi film. So please go and watch the film and you will surely enjoy it but please don’t expect that you will meet a multi-millionaire boy in the train, who will fall in love with you.
