JEENA SIRF MERRE LIYE

Director: Talat Jani.
Producer: Vashu Bhagnani.
Music: Nadeem-Shravan.
Lyrics: Sameer
Starring: Tusshar, Kareena Kapoor

PREDICTED RATING: 6/10

After starring in the surprise box office blockbuster Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai, the hit pairing of Kareena Kapoor and Tusshar re-surface in Vashu Bhagnani's Jeena Sirf Merre Liye. Its hardly surprising that the Bollywood youngsters have decided to make the most of their well received onscreen chemistry, although this time around their roles are reversed! After chasing Kareena just to say Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai, Tusshar decides to let his co-star do the pursuing in this movie.

The film is about the relationship shared between both their characters. The duo are inseparable during childhood and slowly start falling in love. But as fate would have it, the lovers are separated. The time apart Kareena still holds a flame for her childhood sweetheart, and as the years go by her love grows and matures for the man of her dreams. When Tusshar finally returns Kareena assumes their love story will continue. Tusshar, however, has no intention of continuing the romance, and from here on the chasing begins.

The music isn't comparable to Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai, but it isn't a bad musical score. The title song by far stands out as a Nadeem-Shravan classic, but the album isn't up to the usual NS standard.

The last "it" pairing AKA Hrithik Roshan and Amisha Patel, did very little to create a storm at the box-office with their follow up to Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai. But here's hoping Kareena and Tusshar don't allow history to repeat itself and deliver an equally plausible film as Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai. Even though the girl chasing boy story has been told many times before it will be interesting to see the final outcome when it graces the silver screens in November.

Looks like a remake of the telugu film 'Manasantha Nuvve' (has to be expected as most Tusshar films and Vashu's films are remakes). The films was a moderate hit mainly because of the (comparitively) subtle comdedy and melodious music.

I dont have many expectations since remakes have a woeful success rate
