Review of Jab We Met


JAB WE MET, the latest movie pairing the famous kapoor-kapur couple. I heard so much of raves and praises on the movie, which really intrigued me to watch it, and of course a lot was on stake for me because I forced a friend to company me in this ordeal.

I have never been a Shahid fan, he is such a boy… but after this movie I realized that he is a cute boy… nevertheless, Shahid portrays his character well, and the developments you see in Aditya is impressive, for once I told myself, ‘this boy is actually good’

Kareena, as Geet, reminds you so much of Basanti from Sholay… I have always felt that Kareena is the most animated actress of Bollywood, and she proved me even more right in this movie, and now I can proudly say that Kareena is the female Jim Carrey of Bollywood.

After many foreign scenes of Manhattan and London done to death in hindi movies, finally we get to see some Indian locales ala Dilse, with Kulu, Manali, Shimla and Bhatinda, and also get the feel of Indian local train and stations, which are nothing above ordinary. As they say, if you want to see the country, you ought to travel by train.

A simple story, superior acting, a wholesome fun and entertainment, which is what you will get. These feel good movies are contagious; it is a nice sigh of relief after strings of nonsensical cinema in bollywood.

Sadly this movie is the last of them as a couple, real mein, actual mein…
