There was a long queue outside the theaters for JTYJN and Love Story 2050 on the weekend. Both are running to packed houses but the people who decided to watch this over 2050 will definitely be a happier lot.
You definitely expect something good when Aamir Khan is involved and once again you are not let down.
The movie takes a theme of 'Ladka aur Ladki Kabhi Dost Nahi ho Sakte' from Maine Pyar Kiya and 'Pyar Dosti Hai' from Kuchh Kuchh Hota Hai. Sounds cliched and boring? I thought the same. In fact the director himself admits through the mouth of one of the characters that this is an old boring theme but other characters insist that it can be different and refreshing and believe me they are right. The treatment is new and refreshing.
You'll see a bunch on friends who look like the people we know rather than what we've seen earlier like people who wear designer clothes and drive imported cars(DCH and KKHH). The whole lead cast is new(except Genelia) and they fit their roles.
Imran and Genelia are the best friends and they sincerely believe that they are just friends. They decide to find a match for each other and once they find them they realize the love for each other. Sounds cliched but looks refreshing. The other characters have been gelled well into the story. The movie has some nice witty lines, some good emotional scenes and some very nice dialogues.
Imran Khan looks like one promising young man. His grip on Hindi is good like his uncle Aamir and he acts well too. Genelia D'Souza does justice to her role and compliments. All other actors are good with their part. Ratna Pathak Shah does good as Imran's mother.
But one thing that you must look forward to is the special appearances. There are so many and really wonderful. You feel like laughing at the characters these people play. I don't want to tell you the spoilers with the name of the people.
Not to forget the genius of A R Rehman. This guy is definitely a magician and gives you some of the most memorable tunes of the year.
The film has had a good opening and will do good. Go watch the movie with your friends or to relive the moments of college life. A strongly recommended film if you like watching movies
