Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na marks the acting debut of Aamir Khan’s nephew Imraan Khan.
Abbas Tyrewala has scripted and directed this fun flick mainly targetted at the youth.
Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is about Jai Singh Rathore a.k.a Rats (Imraan Khan), a Rajput who doesnt believe in violence and Aditi Mahant a.k.a Meow (Genelia D’Souza), a cute and violent girl. Aditi feels Jai is a big coward and Jai says her parents should have rinsed her mouth with soap! They fight like crazy but just cant live without each other. They are almost a made for each other couple, their parents know this, friends know it, but they believe they are just great friends, no more, no less. Does friendship turn into love?
The first half is almost flawless, a simple tale of friendship and love, that either makes you smile or laugh.
The second half, could have been better.. it tends to drag a tad bit at times and gets predictable when Genelia is engaged. The writer should have opted for a different climax and made it slightly more believable. The dialogues are witty, hilarious at times and brilliant.
The music by A.R. Rehman is perfect for the movie. “Pappu cant dance saala” and “Kabhi Kabhi” stand out.
Coming to the performances, Imraan Khan reminded me a lot of Aamir Khan, especially the mischievious grin. Imraan overall makes a solid debut, not once does he go over the top. A good restrained performance, this actor will surely go a long way. Genelia D’Souza’s expressions alone are worth the price of the ticket. She oozes cuteness and performs well.
From the other actors, Manjari Phadnis looks good, acts well. Ratna Pathak Shah is superb as always. Paresh Rawal makes you laugh a couple of times. Naseeruddin Shah in a short role is just perfect. The director has managed to extract excellent performances from every other character actor.
Overall, Jaane Tu is an enjoyable and light-on-the-heart entertainer. If your looking for a movie on friendship and love, that makes you smile and laugh at times, this would be the one for you.
and i wud go for 3/5 for Imran Khan's debut 'Jaane Tu.. ya Jaane na' ..
a fun movie .. worthy of a one-time watch with friends...
