jane tu ya jane na






Author : Kiran



Tera Mujhse hai phale ka nata koi…

Yun hi nahi dil lubhata koi…

Jane tu…ya jane na…

Borrowing its name from this classic “Aa Gale Lag Ja” number….Abbas Tyrewala’s ( give him some credit yaar, its his baby after all) ‘Jaane Tu ya Jaane Na’ is COOL and REFRESHING.

The story is nothing new, the treatment is. The film is about Jai Singh Rathore a.k.a Rats (Imraan Khan), a non-violent Rajput who and Aditi Mahant a.k.a Meow (Genelia D’Souza), cute and violent at the same time. Aditi feels Jai is fattu (coward). They fight like crazy but just can’t live without each other. Their parents, their friends think they are almost a made for each other couple but they believe they are just great friends. So when do they know it’s love? This is the crux of the story. Doesn’t sound too great!!! but do not go by the simple story. Abbas Tyrewala has weaved beautiful situatins that will just take you back to your college days. Watch it for its simplicity, well etched characters and situations and above all some excellent cameos by Naseeruddin Shah, Ratna Pathak Shah, Paresh Rawal, Arbaaz Khan and Suhail Khan!!! Simply brilliant.

Director Abbas Tyrewala has executed the screenplay with brilliance because there was nothing new in the story. It’s just his treatment that makes the difference. The first half is pacy, though the second half tends to drag at times and gets predictable. But there are ample moments that make you smile…like the scene between Amit and Aditi, his confession. Heart warming and brilliant… Aditi begins to realise her love for Jai only when Manjari Phadnis enters the scene. The jealousy, sadness and regret is executed and performed perfectly. The scenes between Jai’s mother (Ratna Pathak Shah) and his dead father talks from a portrait (Naseruddin Shah) are Hilarious! and above all the chemistry between the gang of 6 friends…so believable. The dialogues are witty and brilliant.

The strongest point of Jaane tu…remains the music. You can just salute the genius of A.R. Rehman, just look at his range!!!. “Pappu cant dance saala” “Kabhi Kabhi Aditi” and the title track may not be classics but when you watch the movie, you feel these are the songs these characters could have sung.

Now a little bit about the performances. Imraan Khan makes a very impressive debut. In a tailor-made role not once does he go over the top. A good restrained performance, however it is to be seen if he has got some range. Genelia D’Souza’s simply excels…she oozes confidence that makes her character so believable…It seems so ridiculous that she wasted her talent in some nonsense movies before. Manjari Phadnis looks good, acts well. Ratna Pathak Shah is superb and so is Naseeruddin Shah. Paresh Rawal has got just 3 scenes and you have to see what good actors can do even in smaller roles. A special mention for Arbaaz Khan and Suhail Khan…guys they are just FABULOUS. They make you laugh whenever they appear on screen. The director has managed to extract excellent performances from every other character actor.

Overall, Abbas Tyrewala’s ( not Aamir Khan’s ;-) ) Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is immensely entertaining and very cute. It makes you smile and laugh and some scenes just touch your heart. Bollywood is going to get a much needed HIT…for sure.

jane tu ya jane na films






Author : kiran Rana


If you are a person who hates to read detailed reviews, my one word review on this movie is 'Excellent'. Just watch it!

So you aren't that impatient... Good! So let's get into the details.

The story of the movie is not new, the way it is narrated is not new, the screenplay is not new; but it's a combination of the best (for the most part) features from different movies that shone in the individual departments. Imagine a love story with a lot of gang mazaa in it, narrated like a fairy tale with a lot of interesting characterizations! That's JTYJN for you... You will be spell bound to this awesome entertainer.

Now that said, there are a couple of negatives about this movie too. The story line is too predictable (in fact it falls into this Indian trend of setting up a casual scene to reveal something that is going to happen later on in the movie) and a lousy climax even for a fairy tale movie. Somehow the armed guards/police officers/black cats in Indian movies always carry a state-of-the-art gun but never shoot unless they are a part of the villain gang :)

Performance of the stars deserve a special mention. Genelia gets artificial at times but in this movie, she has done complete justice to her role. Not just Genelia but Imran Khan, Pratik Smit Babbar, Manjari Phadnis, Ratna Pathak shah, Jayant Kriplani, Anuradha Patel, Rajat Kapoor, Kittu Gidwani, Paresh Rawal have all done a wonderful job. In the acting department I should give a 10/10 for this movie.

Plus points: Narration, screenplay, dialogs and especially the characterizations
Negative points: Too much of fantasy added to a simple movie, lousy climax, predictable story line.

In short, it's worth your money and do watch it!

Still not satisfied? You are someone like me who likes to understand minute things about the movie, admire them and then go out to watch the movie? Well... pleased to meet you! Let's discuss a bit of detail.

Spoiler Alert:

As I mentioned, this is only for those who 'study' a movie before/after watching it. If you prefer not to know much about the scenes before watching the movie, then I'd recommend you to continue reading after you watch the movie.

There were certain things that I simply loved in this movie. Let me talk a little bit about them.

The heredity stuff:

Having decided to present a fantasy story with a horse-riding hero in it, the director has seamlessly inter-twined heroism and fantasy into this story via the hero's family background. Hailing from a Rathod family; horse-riding, fights are all born with him, in him. And the way his dead father interacts with his mom is simply superb and well narrated/characterized.

The brother character:

Such a deep characterization. Lonely, solitary, artistic, casual, talented, yet loser-branded person. His dialogs were awesome in the scene where he explains how important his sister is to him and in the scene where he explains why the hero suits her better than the groom that their parents recommend.

Meghna:

She is not the heroine of the movie and again as usual you need some girl to induce the possessiveness in the heroine and thus comes in Meghna. I was simply dumbfounded by the level of psychology that goes behind her characterization. A girl who loves her parents a lot and hates to see them fight; starts to develop a voluntary habit of fantasizing. She tries to see something great about everything so that the world around her is perfect at least in her view. Should say hats off again.

The narration:

Though this style of narration is nothing new, it perfectly fits this movie. The best part about it is that unnecessary lengthy scenes are cut-short in the form of predictions from the listener. That makes the movie all the more interesting and even the intermission was completely casual unlike usual movies where you have some shocking incident, heavy bgm, hero's face shown in closeup and all that crap. :)

The only thing I could do beyond this, is to provide you the link to this movie just in case you don't have it released in theaters nearby. If you do have that option, I'd strongly recommend it

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na Gallery

Story telling can be of so much fun that one converts from a nagging girl friend to a most exciting and loving girl friend after hearing the story of this two young jubilant friends, who did not know about love and finally found that “ Oh ! We are in love Yaar !’....... kind of fantasy. Clean Movie no muscle flexing Hero, no crying or always in distress heroines. No nagging parents neither any social constraints , no showing of flesh or not even a single vulgar scene.......they all are guys and girls come to this earth with silver spoon in their mouth. But they can’t decide whether they are in love or not.......... friends, they can really make life beautiful as they make in this film............ a really fun-filled freak.

The opening scene, when Meaw (Our Heroine) mourns over her cat’s death, took me down the memory lane when as a teen I used to keep three beautiful cats and of course mourn for days together for their death of course on different years and dates...You know three mournings.... Only who has got a pet cat he/she can feel the pain.....

When three Rathod brothers explored that they are long lost chachera brothers...ooofff......Thank god I didn’t fall off my chair...That was really hilarious..

The last scene when Hero fulfils the three doctrines of Rathod Khandan , to beat/hit somebody, to go to jail and to ride a horse and goes riding a horse to the Mumbai airport and his worried Mom happens to see him on her way to police station and says with a sigh in her breath, “ No he is not my son, he is my husband’s son.” was just good enough to split you into laughter...The role of Naseeruddin Shah inside the framed photo and Ratna Shah was too good.....Lovely movie and make you forget your age, problems and tensions for 2 and half hrs and the after effect is that you just keep on laughing remembering the sequences and scenes........

Parting line....... a must see....I even will buy one CD to watch it again....Huh....
