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!

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.

Aditya Roy Kapur is just so much eye candy that sometimes it gets too much for my blushing chubby cheeks. And I think Shradhha Kapoor has never looked this stunning in any film. Watching this film makes you realise that Mani Ratnam is a genius. Because there is nothing new to say in OK Jaanu, as there was nothing new to say in Ok Kanmani. It's just Saathiya for the newer generation, but while Kanmani had Dulquer, Nithya and the magic of Mani Ratnam himself, OK Jaanu clearly shows the cracks in the old tired story Shaad Ali is trying to retell like he did with Saathiya. Overall a fun timepass watch, but if you don't mind subtitles, I'd recommend OK Kanmani. Yes it doesn't have the shirtless hotness of Aditya Roy Kapur, but the film has a lot more , while being absolutely the same.

Aditya and Shraddha have chemistry but this film lacks a good & deep story. Although I loved the characters of old couple that defined love beautifully.

This movie is not the best, but it makes sense. It can be relatable to many people in someway.

Shraddha and Aadi look cute together but there is nothing different with their acting. It looked like Aditya is into his YJHD character. They both didn't leave any mark.

Overall I liked the film as a one-time watch.

One part I liked and found relatable when Aditya's bhabhi said "Jab Jane ka time aega tab pyaar chhodogi ya aadat". It so true!!

This movie may lack a deep and strong story but it seems realistic. And another part which is my fav when Gopi ji explains his love for his wife and how he says "never miss the train even if you don't have the ticket" which teaches a valuable lesson to value everything in life and how not everything coming in your way is to take for granted.

I actually enjoyed the movie. It was a sweet one with good songs, decent acting and a fresh take on modern relationships.Aditya and Shraddha did actually good in the movie. Shaad Ali has done a good job in the film.
