Love Story 2050 ya Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na ? Me and KK were not confused about making the choice. Its Harry Baweja vs Abbas Tyrewala. But KK had some other reason. At Love Story 2050 screening, booze would be there. May be we can sit through the film then. No, lets vote for the writer. Afterall he co-wrote one of our all time favourite film, Maqbool. We compromised on the booze factor.

Mummy I want panipuri. A squeaky voice from the row behind us.
Must be kid.
Beta panipuri bahar jaake khayenge.
Ahhhh…naaaaiiiii…papa….panipuriiiiii…mummy.
Ok, we are fucked.
Beta, dekho papu cant dance aayega…abhi jaldi aayega.
KK looked around…Koi aur seat khali bhi to nahi hai.
In theatres, the message on the screen should be changed – switch off your mobiles and KIDS!! OR please go and watch thoda pyaar thoda magic with your kids.

Kk – the credit roll looks nice.
Me – ya, love all around in all possible colours. Painting hangover of Aamir Khan productions from their last film. Ok bad one.

2nd scene in the film ( spoiler alert).
I am sorry. We tried hard but could do nothing.
Me – it must be x or y.
KK – hmmm.
It turns out to be X. oh no! yes ! shit. Even the jokes are predictable.
Tu bahut intelligent ho gaya hai re.
No, I didn’t use my brain. Or may be I have started thinking like Abbas. Or is it the reverse case. He has started thinking like me. Ya, chances are much higher. De Tali!
No man no, don’t do this. I want to like the film. Its Tyrewala’s debut film. Somuji have been waiting for this one. De Tali!

20 mins into the film. KK finished a bottle of water with a pack of chicken sandwich.
KK – ghar chalein kya ?

30mins
Kk – ghar chalein kya ?
Me – paagal ho gaya hai tu ? tu ja. Dinner is also there. Have told my servant.
KK - hmm.
We decided to concentrate.

Tera mujhse se hai pehle ka nata koi…yun hi nahi dil….……jaane tu ya jaane na.

It’s a world of rats, meow, boms, roltu, jiggy, shitty, potty, dicky, fucky and god knows what!! i dont know any such group. And if i knew, i would just put a bomb there. Am not at all interested in stories of all those rich, bored and dumb kids who have nothing to do in life except sing, dance and party. Its one such bunch. There are some thirty party scenes (ok, bit less ) in the film. And if there is one gujrati in the group, I can bet that you can guess the name. Yes, he is jignesh who will pronounce sushant as soo-shant. And yes people still laugh on that.

KK is turning left to right. Kya hai yeh ? chal kya raha hai ? kaun hai yeh log ?
Me – de tali.
Manjari to Genelia – Use kisi aur se pyaar ho gaya hai. duniya ki sabse purani kahani.

And Jaane tu ya jaane na is exactly that. Its yet another we are friends—confused–lovers—just friends–good friends–oh no–made for each other finally. And to give a cue on how you should be feeling about the film, there is even the “YOU” factor in the film who transforms from am-fuck-interested about the story to tell-me-or-I-will-die to never-heard-something-like-this before.

Autopsy Guru Dabba said – seriously guys, how great can a college romance be ?
Damn, he is right again.

Jayant Kriplani, Anuradha Patel, Kitu Gidwani, Naseerudin Shah, Paresh rawal – all my favourite actors and all of them have nothing much to do. They are all caricatures. Its the story of a college kid becoming Ranjhor ke Rathore with the help of Khan Brothers (the Natural Born Buffoons . Other than white and red blood cells, I think they have something called BBC - buffoon blood cells, that Salim Khan didn’t have but somehow the three khans have, and in good number)

Those of you who are playing kabhi kabhi aditi in non-stop loop, you would not believe the scene where the song comes. It’s the hands down winner of the most cheesiest, corniest, kiddish situation of the decade. I would cringe on my deathbed. Or may be the count of rbc (romantic blood cells ) in my blood is not there.
DPac – if u like it, do let me know. Next time when we meet, I will not be able to stop laughing. I was trying to hide my face so that the songs gets over soon.

What else ?
Let me think….hmmmmm……still thinking…….hmmmmmmm…tirkit dhana….tirkit dhana….

Some scenes are funny. Some witty and smart one liners. The director hasn’t killed the writer yet. And Pratiek Babbar scores. No, he is not there in any poster, hoarding, song or promotional video. But he got some of the coolest lines and he delivers it well. The non chalant attitude never made someone so interesting in recent times. ( vasan – this is what I meant by disinterested but not boring and lethargic acting )

What else ?
Thinking……Tearing my hair…don’t have much anyway…..still thinking…..tirkit dhana…tirkit dhana……
yes, someone must be happy, very happy. Up there. Guess who ? Somuji. Having the last laugh. I know he was waiting for the debut film of the greatest writer of the world.

But yeh Somuji hai kaun ? De Tali.
You don’t know Somuji ?
Are you new in blogosphere ? Yes.
Then you must click here.

What else ?
Thinking…..still thinking…….thinking hard……..thinking very hard…..tirkit tana…tirkit dhana…

The End.
Me – kk ghar chalein.
KK – WTF!!!!!!!!

BTW, if you are thinking that the film is devoid of any intelligence, then wait till the last shot. You will be proved wrong. Godot ka ab bhi hai intezaar!! And de taali!!!
