"Jab We Met " is a cute love story. Well you would heard this by this time now. But let me tell you it is a FUN film to watch. There are lot of stuff missing in this movie, which now has become a trademark of a pot-boiler:
*item number
*extravagance be it for locales or costume.
*unnecessary rona-dhona
*dream sequence
So, the movie is quite endearing and closer to life. But still the director has taken some liberties to move away from logic like where Kareena gets down from the train to get Shahid back into the train and in turn misses it.
Well moving to the story, the story is very simple Geet (Kareena) ,a happy -go-lucky chatterbox girl whose childhood dream is to get married in life, meets Aditya (Shahid), a sober disillusioned businessman on a train. Aditya has boarded the train after he has almost decided to end his life, that is when he meets Geet. Both end up missing the train. Geet informs him that it is his responsibility to take her to home-town Bhatinda. She constantly nags him and frustrated both of them embark on a journey to Bhatinda. Well one thing I would like to mention that the rural Punjab is a scenic beauty with the sarson da keth and etc.
Once they reach Bhatinda Aditya is already in love with Geet. But the twist here is that Geet is already in love with some other guy. Here again our hero helps Geet in getting reunited with her love of life.
I do not want to spoil the movie goers with the full plot. So what happens next and how Geet and Aditya reunite forms the rest of the story.
I think one of the reasons for the success of a movie is a well-written script and well-etched characters. I like Geet's characterisation very much. She is a girl who follows her heart and has no inhibitions at all. If she decides to jump into a river she would and not think about the consequences. I think sometimes we need to let ourselves be carefree and take it easy. After all Life is about Living.
Kareena has done a damn good job. She has portrayed the effervescent character very well. The beauty is she is a chatter-box but doesn't irritate you. Instead makes all of us yearn why we can't be like her.
So that's it folks. I recommend you all to watch this movie.
Rating : *** (Good)
