6/10
Decent: not fit for 2009
26 December 2009
Warning: Spoilers
I expected a lot from this film, the trailers looked nice, songs are a hype and it was a super-hit. After watching this film I feel a little disappointed.

These kind of comedies would have worked in the late 90's. Nowadays it is the era of comedies like Munnabhai/3 idiots/Jaane Tu.. movies that make a little sense. Of course Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani makes sense, but the storyline is outdated; boy loves girl, girl loves someone else initially, boy still gets the girl in the end.

Though there are some things in the movie that still made me rate the movie 6 out of 10.

1. Ranbir Kapoor is an absolute entertainer, Wake Up Sid already impressed me to the core, but this performance of Ranbir tells me he is definitely going to be the superstar of tomorrow, maybe he already is! 2. Special appearance by Salman Khan. The 3 minute appearance by Salman is really funny, and refreshing! 3. The song picturisations of Tera Hone Laga Hoon, Tu Jaane na. 4. The songs by Pritam. 5. Katrina Kaif looking absolutely gorgeous. 6. The last scene where 'someone' helps Ranbir.

Upen Patel is a big no-no in such kind of movies, he can't act man! He should stick to modelling, and if he really wants to act, he should learn how to give proper facial expressions and body language.

Rajkumar Santoshi disappoints this time, his Andaz Apna Apna is one of my all time favourites and still one of the finest comedies ever. Hope he doesn't disappoint next time!

All in all, if you have nothing to do on a Sunday afternoon, watch this with some lays cheese onion in a bucket.
