Jounrney like never before!. Review on Jab We Met

*Neither in black,

Nor in white,

LIFE is, rather, in the grey areas.*

Days never come with a guarantee. Each morning we wake up to face a brand new day, oblivious of what it has in store for us.

So don’t just live, but, make beautiful memories.

Live as if you are celebrating. Celebrate not only the occasions, but celebrate life, celebrate each and every day. That is how we can make beautiful memories and can boastfully recall our bygone days. Just the way we do recall our school days. Because those were the days when we were actually living.

But now, we are not living; We are busy in competing, hating, loving, complaining, cribbing, agreeing, disagreeing and what not. We do everything; But Live.

I exhort all my readers, to start living as if there is no tomorrow. I dedicate this review to the Spirit Of Living.

Why this discourse on Spirit of Living?

Because the character Geet(Kareena Kapoor) exhibits this and much more on the screen. And this movie is all about Geet. The above things are not my preachings but a perspective of life which Geet has in the first half of the movie but somehow loses it in the second half.

Her garrulity, her innocence, her crazyness, her boldness, her brashness is captivating. Geet will leave a deep impact on u. Geet will make you fall in love with life despite the adversaties. Geet’s memories will not leave you after leaving the theatres; it will linger on you.*

Her **outlandish ideas like:

-          tumne bachpan try kiya hai na, maza aaya tha na, ab ye try karo

-          bohot maza aa raha hai na… haan kyunki zindagi mera fav game hai. tumhara kya hai. let me guess racing.

Her crazy one-liners like:

-          mujhe bachpan se hi shaadi karne ka bohot shauk hai, my god!

-          mein apni favorite hoon!

-          agar ek rupaya kuch nahi hota to chori kyu kar rahe ho!

-          Tenu ki pharak painda hai!

Her quality of being a hopeless romantic:

“Mere jaise laakho mile honge tujhko piya

Mujhe to mila tuuuu hi

Tu hi mere hontho ki khilti hui si hansi

Gila bhi piya tuuuu hi

Dekho na dekho mujhe kya hua hai tujhe sapno mein laake

Pucho na pucho mujhe kya hua hai teri baaton mein aakar

Yes ishq haibaithe bithaye jannat dikhaye haan”

• “Sung by Shreya Ghoshal”

Geet expresses her feelings for Anshuman(Tarun Arora). Her happiness, her anticipation of meeting him. A fairy-tale kind of recitation, doll-like dancing with innocent-looks makes it an enticing number.

Her sadness:

“Sapno ka jahan

Hoga khila khila

Barsega saawan, barsega saawan

Jhoom jhoom ke

Do dil aise milenge

Aaoge Jab Tum Saajna

Angana phool khilege”

• “Sung by Ustad Rashid Khan”

Happy lyrics with sad music & in sad situation. Happiness is explaining the sad story of Geet. How her dreams shattered.

Why she becomes desolate? Watch the movie and find out.

JWM is also about loving someone but not wanting him

JWM is a beautiful love-story which gives us a completely new definition of LOVE.

"Loving Someone is a trip to Heaven.

Wanting Someone is a trip to Hell. "

We have seen characters turning desolate after realizing they are not being loved by the person they love. But have you seen a character getting all the more successful in his career after saying goodbye to the person he actually loves?

Yes I am talking about none other than Aditya Kashyap(Shaahid Kapoor). Aditya falls in love with Geet and expresses it to her(not explicitly, but by his demeanour). Despite the fact that Geet loves Anshuman, Aditya never stop loving her.

“Baithe baithe aise kaise koi rasta naya sa mile

Tu bhi chale mein bhi chalu honge kam ye tabhi faasle

Aao tera mera na ho kisi se waasta

Aao mile chale jaana kahan na ho pata”

• “Sung by Shaan & Ustad Sultan Khan”

There could not have been a better song to describe feelings of Aditya. It beautifully expresses the feeling of falling in love and most importantly wanting to be in love forever and keep cherishing it, without bothering about the fact that the person whom you love can never be yours.

Its hard to live alone, its harder to choose someone to love but the hardest part of Love is to admit that you have fallen in love with someone who can never be yours!

Does Anshuman also loves Geet? Yes he does. They studied in same college and fell in L-O-V-E.

“Na hai yeh pana

Na Khona hi hai

Tera Na hona jane

Kyun hona hi hai

Mein kahin bhi jata hoon

Tumse hi mil jata hoon

Tumse hi tumse hi“

• “Sung by Mohit Chauhan”

Aditya misses Geet without getting upset about it. Infact, cherishing it. He didn’t miss her at all because he felt her presence everywhere. He was in love and was rejoicing in it. He was basking in the sunshine of love.

This song and Aditya’s love for Geet gave us a new definition of “missing someone” or“not-missing someone.”

What else?

What happens with Aditya, Geet and Anshuman’s life is for you to find out. But I can tell you what more can be expected out of this movie.

-          Punjabi tadka

-          Melodious songs

-          Tactics to get over a heart-break

-          Comedy like never before

-          Situanal songs with lyrics so aptly written

-          Each & every scene in the movie is enthralling.

-          Every song is mesmerizing.

Two dance numbers from the movie:

-          Nagada Nagada(Sonu Nigam, Javed Ali)

-          Mauja hi Mauja(Mika Singh)

Conclusion:

This movie is for all those who have loved and lost. Also, for all those who have been cheated. For those who are in love; And for all the singles out there, this one is for you too. Infact, it is for those as well who does not believe in Love.

Geet says -

“Don't let the bitterness of yesterday and the fear of tomorrow take away the sweetness of today”

Aditya says -

“Don’t fall in love, but rise in Love”

Nidhi says -

“Love is a funny feeling; never take it seriously”
