The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Walter Sloane
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

I was expecting a movie like Kal Ho Na Ho. One I would love instantly.I was disappointed.It started off weird. The airport scene was indeed very boring and overused. The friends very robot-like.And then we FINALLY see him and her. The stars. The one we know will win all the best debut awards this year. Imran Khan and Genelia D'Souza.Imran Khan surprised me. I was expecting another mediocre, here in the industry because of relations but he is indeed good. Genelia is decent but needs to work on her accent. She also looks very similar to Sonai Kulkarni, who is a much better actress than she.The story was average. It had its moments. There were times when you were laughing very hard and times when you wanted to go hide under the seat because of the syrupy sweet, totally unrealistic lives and dialogs and story.It tried to teach parents some things as well. The situation with Imran's girlfriend's parents was a very good example and a bit believable as well. I hope parents learn from it.Had I not heard so much about it, I would not have been so disappointed. It was that I was expecting so much, so, so much, that I was so sorely disappointed. It could have done so much better. There were times when it could have shined. But it failed.I think that it is watchable, but only if you have no expectations.A cute romantic comedy, masala movie.6/10.

The movie lives up to the name of aamir khan production's.Its a simple story with a new face. A must watch for the youngsters. It has its share of good humorous comedy. The peppy dialogs steal the show. The casting is great, everyone plays there respective character to the T.The songs are rocking and at the same time soothing to the ears. Hats off to A.R.Rahman.The story is about two people jai singh rathore (Imran) and aaditi mahant (Genelia). They are the best of friends and they cannot imagine living without each other. But they don't know that they are actually in love.The movie ends showing how they finally realizes that they are actually in love.The story never drags at any point.final rating 9/10.Must see. At least once.

So much has already been written here about this film, in fact, there's nothing new to add for me, yet I'm compelled to write about it. This in itself proves what kind of film this is. You just need to talk about this film...with everyone.What's to like? The music, the direction, the freshness of the characters, the cinematography, the fact that there are no aging Khans & the fact that most of the script is repeated by us while amongst our friends which makes it easy to relate with the characters.What's not to like? Nothing...What could have been better? The acting, but then let's not forget that most of the actors in it as new comers. So it's excusable.If you haven't yet watched the movie stop reading this and get going.

Well, we now have a new Khan kid on the block. For Imran Khan who made a significant departure from the muscled and dancing boys making macho entries these days, this romantic flick seemed tailor made for him. This surely has an uncanny resemble to his Uncle Aamir’s strategy where he went around with the ‘chocolate hero’ image till he established himself in serious roles. But, was the movie really so worthwhile?Jaane Tu is about complementary personalities Jai (Imran) and Aditi (Genelia) who share an inseparable bond which they believe is nothing more than friendship. Their group of friends Rotlu, Jignesh a.k.a. Jiggy, Sandhya a.k.a. Bombs and Shaleen know for sure that the lead duo are in love, so do Aditi’s parents and Jai’s mother. Bugged by constant prodding of others, the duo decides to look for an ideal partner each other.With the college getting over, and the pappu dance song through, the friends seem to be having a nice time going places. At on such club, Jai saves Meghana (Manjari Phadnis) from being stalked and cupid strikes them. As Jai gets closer to Meghana, Aditi feels left out. As time passes, Aditi gets engaged to a family friend, a macho man she always wanted, who was unlike the mild mannered Jai who always opts to be non-violent.With the passage of events, Aditi senses a mismatch with mean ways of Sushant and realizes that she actually loves Jai. Aditi’s weird artistic brother Amit (Prateek Babbar) too pitches for Jai. Unfortunately the realization comes late for Jai, only after realizing that Meghana’s sweet ways; her penchant for seeing the world goody-goody and her hyper-imaginative ‘what’s this?’ game is actually defense for her personal melodrama.What follows next is typical Bollywood drama. A simple story here gets adulterated by being set in a not so well scripted storytelling between friends at the Airport, a climax that downright brainless. The funny sequences involving three challenges of Rathods and Sohail-Arbaaz Khan stuff sucks. The short role of Naseeruddin Shah talking through a picture entertains though. Paresh Rawal, in his poorly scripted role is wasted.If not for these bloopers that prevent this from becoming an all time memorable flick, it still scores points for being a cute, fresh film. While Imran is not just handsome but did a good job, lively Genelia is refreshing. Ratna Pathak Shah, of small screen fame did a good job as Jai’s mother. Rehman’s music is decent, but nothing new. To sum up, like uncle, like nephew, this is Imran’s ‘papa-kehte-hain’ style entry. Way to go Imran!
