Jawaani Jaaneman

A 40-something single man, high on life, finds out that he has a 21-year-old daughter. .., Will he become responsible father or continue to live his free-spirited life ..!! Thts the story..!!

"Kya main lagta hoon unhappy married types?" asks Saif to 21-year-old Tia (Alaya F).

Minutes later she drops a bomb on him revealing that he is her father.

The film is highly entertaining in the first half when the narrative is light.

The pace drops in the second half. Especially, for single men who want to fly solo all their life.

But in the end, 'Jawaani Jaaneman' comes out a winner with its contemporary story that showcases complex human relationships with fun-filled attitude.

This is a good story about relationships. Saif Ali Khan and Aalia F have given excellent performance in the father-daughter duo.

The comedy is more natural than slap-stick. It is n entertaining movie.

A revival which Bollywood humor needed desperately.A completely fresh concept, which gave its viewers access to new content jokes even in orthodox funny situations. Definitely A must watch!!!!! Saif I love you!!

Jawaani Jaaneman review :

Remember Ole Ole!

That hit song from Yeh Dillagi (1994) which sorta launched Saif Ali Khan's career in the 90s. Since then, he has delivered many hits playing the kind hearted playboy who loves to live the fast life of booze and gals.

This film starts with Saif recreating his Ole Ole number and repeating his dil phek character from Yeh Dillagi. Obviously, hes a middle aged guy now but still doesn't want to settle down. No commitment. No marriage. No kids please.

Trying to hook up with a girl half his age, the cool dude gets a shock of his life when that girl reveals that she is actually his biological daughter. Not only that, she's also preggers and intends to keep the child.

Jawaani Jaaneman is a decently executed comedy with some genuinely lol moments leaving you with an emotional message that family is what a guy ultimately needs and flying solo can cause paralysis in the long run...Ouch!!

Director Nitin Kakkar keeps the narrative engaging throughout its two hours of run time. To his credit, there is never a dull moment though you know well how this baap- beti drama is gonna end. After all, we have seen Naseeruddin Shah coming on terms with his illegitimate son Jugal Hansraj in Shekhar Kapur's brilliant Masoom (1983). And later, our Salman bhaijaan also faced a similar bhool ka natija in Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai (1998). Ho hum!

Of the cast, Saif can play this role in his sleep now and expectedly, he doesn't disappoint at all. Sacred Games' Kubbra Sait gets a meaty role and nails it. Tabu appears only in the second half but still leaves her mark. Chunky Pandey seems to be carrying forward his 'Housefull' character though he isn't named Pasta here.

Above all, it is debutant Alaya Furniturewala - Pooja Bedi's daughter - who leaves you mighty impressed with her splendid performance. It was a risky role to debut with but full marks to her for choosing this film over a typical dance around trees routine. Jawaani Jaaneman may or may not work at the ticket windows. But surely, Alaya F is here to stay!

'Jawani Jaaneman' serves many special messages along with comedy. The film moves forward, quoting lessons of love, family, relatives and reliability.

Saif Ali Khan has played a part in the role of Jaswinder Singh aka Jazz. It is believed that he has played this role with the full truth. At the same time, Saif has given equal support in the film. Aalia's confidence is seen in her first film itself. Aalia F is also useful in emotional scenes.

Kumud Mishra as Jazz's elder brother, Kubra Sait and Chunky Pandey among Jazz's friends have done full equity to their characters. At the same time, as a guest appearance, Tabu added life to the scenes. The scenes of Saif and Tabu are hilarious and make a lot of laughs.

Nitin Kakkar has made all the revelations at the beginning of the film, but still, something special remains in the movie. Though the first half is extremely slow and bored after a while, in the second half, the film arises from the back. The scene between Tabu and Saif Ali Khan is superb and arouses interest. But he lives for a short time. The film is fun in parts but does not attract two consecutive hours.

This is a good story about relationships. Saif Ali Khan and Aalia F have given excellent performance in the father-daughter duo.

This movie has something different and the comedy is more natural than slap-stick. It is no doubt a very hilarious and entertaining movie. It shows a lot of hard work on the parts of scriptwriting, casting and directing - essential for comedies. But the roles played by Alaya and Saif.
