Haunted by suspicion, he secretly follows his disinterested wife Roshni(Tisca Chopra) everywhere. This only further drives her away.Ghalib's mother(Sarita Joshi) finally comes to his rescue. She gives him the magical'Josh-e-jawaani', a love potion which would solve all his problems! Whoever drinks the potion will fall in love with the person he/she sees first, right after consuming the drink.
Sharat Katariya keeps his film simple and sweet. Multiple tracks run parallel in the film, then cross paths co-incidentally, only to come together in a witty climax.
While performances are decent, the characters lack depth, as they are not established sufficiently. Many questions are as a result left unanswered. You fail to understand why people do the things they do in the film. You wonder why Neil won't marry Mini instead of Shweta. Why does Ghalib follow his wife everywhere? Why would a dominating, pampered and rich woman like Shweta comply with poor Peter's take on them eloping? None of the questions get answered.
