Looks like, the Hindi version will be an 'R' rated version "When We Mate"
as opposed to a 'U' rated English version "When We Met".
That's the way Hindi title is spelled in these shots. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Jab We Met is a cute love story

Syed Firdaus Ashraf | October 26, 2007 12:20 IST












They may have split in real life but Kareena Kapoor [Images] and Shahid Kapur's [Images] reel love story Jab We Met [Images] is a cute film, and is sure to touch the hearts of those in love.

The film starts with Geet (Kareena), a Sikh who talks nonstop. She embarks on a train journey from Mumbai to her hometown Bhatinda. On the way, she runs into Aditya Kashyap (Shahid), a young man disillusioned with life after being dumped by his girlfriend. To make matters worse, even his business is going nowhere.


But besides that, Jab We Met is a fun film, with quite a few moments worth watching.

Though Kareena is loud at times, she is a treat to watch -- funny and full of life. She gets to mouth hilarious lines like, 'Bachpan se mujhe shaadi karne ka bahut shauk tha.'

Shahid, on other hand, acts composed and provides a perfect foil to the Kareena's bubbly character.

Pritam's music also enhances the film. Lyricist Irshad Kamil deserves a special mention for the song, Yeh Ishq Hai.

Rediff Rating:2.5/5

Frankly, the story isn't new. It has traces of the Abhishek - Ash starrer DHAAI AKSHAR PREM KE [2000; which, in turn, was inspired by A WALK IN THE CLOUDS] and Govinda - Urmila starrer KUNWARA [2000; which, in turn, was a remake of a Telugu film BHAVANAGARU BHAGUNNARA], but director Imtiaz Ali's execution of the subject takes it to another level altogether.

Kareena is in top form as well. JAB WE MET is a turning point in her career [personally as well as professionally]. Fantabulous -- that's the right word to describe her work this time. The confidence with which she handles the contrasting characterization speaks volumes. This film should do for her what KUCH KUCH HOTA HAI did for Kajol.

Pawan Malhotra is excellent as Kareena's uncle. His diction as also the body language is perfect. Dara Singh is good. Tarun Arora is awkward, but that gels with his role.

On the whole, JAB WE MET is one of the finest [romantic] films to come out of Bollywood in 2007. At the box-office, it has the merits to work big time. Strongly recommended… Go with your family!

3.5/5

Hey guys .. Saw the movie yesterday. Its actually an OK movie which is to say 'more than meets the expectations' for me. Although I seriously doubt I ll remember it after a couple of months. To me the film was more a fusion of ddlj and Pyar to hona hi tha with lot of scenes being a straight lift-off, the female lead being replaced by a lovable chatterbox in the first half. My only serious complain with the movie is that apart from the newness in execution of subject by Director Imtiaz Ali(which is the sole grace of the movie), there is actually nothing new in the movie. The plot is quite predictable from the word go- including the climax. Almost Every scene has got a sense of Deja vu from some X SRK movie.

However, its got some great music to rock u in regular intervals(thankfully all songs are situational). The one and only part of the movie that personally i ll probably cherish for a long time will be perhaps the song 'ye ishq hai' which is one of the most beautifully shot, performed and choreographed songs in recent times-u cant help but adore Kareena in this song.

Shahid gives a great performance as a departutre from his candyfloss college boy role. The show stealer is Kareena just because her character is beautifully etched up. In every other movie whenever she is allowed to act normally, she appears to overact and spoil the subtleties of role but here the character definition itself gives her the golden opportunity to convert this very weakness into the winning strength by being allowed to act as loud and over the top as possible. Since long, the actress needed one role to let go and this will no doubt do wonders for her career.

Arre, Urban Legend, you had a son? Congratulations, that's wonderful!

I too have to settle for DVDs at home now. My daughter is 4 now, but we're worried at the violence in most movies and don't take her (even someone getting a slap will make her cry). Plus my husband finds it too wickedly extravagent to cough up $30 to see a movie in the theater.

Sigh. In my single days I saw 5-10 movies a month. What we do for love. If someone can tell me if Jab We Met is violence free, I might try to convince him to go see it! Is it a family film?
