Even before the trailers were aired for this movie, I was excited to see it just because RajKumar Santoshi was making a comedy for the first time after Andaz Apna Apna. The trailers were modest to be best except for 2-3 good numbers from Pritam. I heard mixed reviews from people around, ranging from very poor to AAA like. Warning, this movie is only for people who can digest half mad jokes like the ones in AAA.
The plot is simple. Prem(Ranbir) is a below average guy who is a 9th dropout. He runs a club in his town, called the Happy club, which appropriately solves peoples' problems. He falls for a girl, Jenny(Katrina) who is exactly his opposite, smart, intelligent etc. etc. They just have one common element, they both stammer when they are upset. This kicks off their friendship. The rest of the movie is based on this plot and there are abundant comic scenes in between to show how Ranbir woos Katrina.
There are a couple of brilliant comic scenes in the movie in which I was laughing my #$$ off. After a certain time I guess I just lost it. I think I haven't laughed so much in a movie since Haseena Maan Jayegi. After the interval I was thinking that the movie will go little senti. But the film continued to be a laughathon till the end sequence. Its the kind of movie where I still laugh just remembering some of the scenes.
Pritam has been outstanding this year. He must have "composed" music for at least 10 movies and most of them have been outstanding. This one is no different. The best song of the album is "Tera Hone Laga Hu" and Katrina looks tooooo cute in the song.
Ranbir carries the film brilliantly on his shoulders proving once again that he is improving with each instance. Katrina finally has learnt the art of acting. A gorgeous face along with acting is a lethal combo. All the supporting cast is also very good. Darshan Zariwalla shows his prowess at
comedy.
Rajkumar Santoshi has tried his best at recreating AAA magic and he has almost hit bulls eye. Its a gem in its own right.
I know I am gonna watch this movie multiple times
Rating: Definitely catch it!! (.. more than once :) )
Spoiler Joke: In the climax, Ranbir's dad tells him "aaj mujhe tujhpe kitna garv hai beta etc. etc." So Ranbir tells him "Waah zara phir se kahiye". His dad literally repeats the entire senence with the same serious expression. lol :P
