OK Jaanu

Mani Ratnam's 'Ok Kanmani', Tamil film that garnered enough love from the south Indian audience. Now is this reason enough to make a Hindi remake? Well as per Bollywood history, yes it is. OK Jaanu is the story of a young couple Adi and Tara who hit it off instantly and decide to live in together rather than tying the marital knot and carry on to pursue their dreams. A parallel track shows the relationship between their land lord and his wife who has Alzheimer's and the older couple makes Adi and Tara realize that they ought to do the right thing.Technically speaking there are not many faults in the film. But it's nothing that we haven't seen before. It's the same old wine served the same old way in the same old bottle. It's predictable and once again the climax doesn't make much sense. It looks more of a made up drama that a real sweet coming of age romance story of a young couple. I go with 2.5/5 for OK Jaanu.

Aditya Roy Kapur is the greatest romantic lead in Bollywood cinema, he is truly perfect here. Aditya and Shraddha make the material genuinely investing and emotional, and form such complete portraits of these individuals. I genuinely cared about their relationship and truly desired for a happy ending. Yes love transcends everything.

I did not have high hopes from this movie. The reviews I read everywhere were bad. When I watched the movie , I thoroughly enjoyed it. The problem is that the Indian audience has still a very long way to go before they start accepting live- in relationships or strings free romances. They feel that their culture is under threat by such films and hence a huge section of narrow minded audience does not let such films work. Aditya Roy Kapur is a decent actor. Shraddha Kapoor always reminds me of Padmini Kolhapuri. She is also a decent actress. Nasseruddin shah plays his role with honesty.

I am not sure why people hated this film. It was a great commercial entertainer. A breezy youthful romance.

You can trust yourself rather than others.In my personal view, I found this movie interesting and entertaining. You find it for yourself. Nice to watch together with loved ones! :)

Also, if you love romantic drama movies than this movie is for you! Good luck

OK Jaanu is a fairly romantic drama, with beautiful tracks along with a creative and innovative fresh take on present day modern relationships! Since this is an official remake of O Kandhal Kanmani, I have not watched the Tamil movie so I cannot compare, but this definitely is worth a watch if you are into themes that are relationship- based with a combination of flirty romance, madness, cohabitation, love, loneliness, marriage and ambition. Adi (Aditya Roy Kapoor) who is a game developer and Tara (Shraddha Kapoor) who is an architect- a lovely young couple that does not believe in marriage but want to be together at that point without worrying what's going to happen next. Twists arrive when they face difficulties between choosing love and career and how they balance it out. Aditya's smile and charming looks along with beautiful Shraddha is always a lovely on screen pair to look forward to after Aashiqui 2. Also, the supporting cast comes up with impeccable performances. Kudos to Naseeruddin Shah and Leela. The music is very well accomplished. Full marks on the recreated Humma version!
