Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya

A Soul Satisfiying Film.

I have no complaints with the movie it was completely entertaining with somewhat ignorable loopholes which is not a big deal if you want to get entertained.

The story looked like the subplot of Enthiran where a robot develops feelings for a human , but here it is the opposite of it where our lead falls in love with a robot with artificial feelings and the chaos happens in his life is what the story looks like.

The music was a great vibe in theatres if you missed it you missed a pretty good experience and tum se deserves great applause.

The direction was good but it would be better if he explored more areas about the complexities caused between a human - robot love relationships.

Shahid Kapoor in his fun zone and Kriti sanon looked like an angel and she did her work well.

You could stare at her in the whole movie and your paisa gets vasool.

The screenplay was great i felt no yawns incoming.

............ SPOILER............. Finally hoping the second parts digs deeper about the conflicts faced between the relationship and how the relationship is further explored.

(would you chose a perfect being with no inner feelings or an imperfect being with inner feelings )

This film had a feel of a tv series instead of a movie. Besides that, I feel the movie could have done better if Ayushmann Khurrana was in the lead instead, as he has more range of emotions and expressions which was required for the role. Shahid's acting was kind of forced, immature and he did not come across as a software engineer. The plot though unique was limited by its writing. There could have been more comedic twists and turns to make the movie more entertaining. Kirti Sanon was good as a robot and stole the limelight away from Shahid Kapoor who inadvertently took a back seat in the movie. The most painful aspect of the movie was watching my favorite He-man Dharamendra being reduced to a frail old man, all for a nondescript role which any Tom, Dick or Harry could have done. I hope he doesn't torture our memories with such roles in the future. Dimple Kapadia was adequate as the CEO of a Robotics company. On the technical side however you would have to question the viability of a robot 18 years in the making, which still has rudimentary issues such as inadequate battery life and inability to withstand simple power outages. All in all I would say inspite of it's inherent flaws the movie is Ok for a one time watch.

Aryan (Shahid Kapoor) is an robotics engineer working for his aunt Urmila (Dimple Kapadia) whose new Innovation is Sifra (Kriti Sanon), a robot. Aryan doesn't want to get married while his entire family wants him to, as expected he falls in love with Sifra. An harmless experiment conducted by Urmila gives Aryan an excuse to continue his own experiment where he introduces Sifra to his family as his lover. What all misfortunes happen when Sifra tries to mingle with the great Indian family, while they prepare for Aryan and Sifra's wedding forms rest of the story.

For a film that tries to look ambitious, it only aims to be a low hanging fruit. Leaving the brain aside, for those 140mins I kept looking for one decently entertaining scene which the film was devoid of. It is not the logic but the emotions that feel forced and largely superficial, leaving the lead actor with an unlikable character, no matter how much he tries to be entertaining. Ofcourse there is a slight glimpse of "fun" in the climax scene and that's about it. The screenplay lacks the fizz to make this rom-com fun and the generic characters get unfunny jokes to mouth as well. Fair warning, the film ends with the note "to be continued" and I wish they had shown the same conviction while scripting this film, so that we could've got a better and watchable film.

I remember seeing a Hindi movie sometime back where the salesman of a clothing department store falls in love with an attractive mannequin of a lady. This over emotional guy has a tough time conveying his sentiments to the mannequin and maintaining his mental balance. In this movie a handsome young man Shahid Kapoor, a robotics engineer, falls desperately in love with an extremely beautiful female robot ( Kriti Sannon) created by his aunt Dimple Kapadia, owner of a robotics company. This situation of their meeting and falling in love was stage managed by the aunt as an experiment to check the reactions of the robot to such emotional issues. However complications develop when Shahid starts planning to marry the female robot to the shock and surprise of his family members.

The plot is fairly new to Hindi films and has been developed well into an interesting narrative. The entertainment aspect has been looked into with a few glamorous dance situations and peppy numbers performed very well both by Shahid and Kriti. One however feels that with a human-robot romance a number of additional romcom situations could have been created. Luckily there are no boring situations, the movie does not drag anywhere and the comedy scenes do entertain.

Watched Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya today in a late night preview show and was bit happy and a bit disappointed at the same time with the movie. I am happy because it is a nice movie which dares to blend genres, manages to keep the SciFi "Real"and even manages to find a pretty effective end to literally an impossible love story but I felt disappointed that it may be a bit difficult to savor for the masses and it doesn't excite as much as its potential.

It is a feel good movie with nice performances that should do well but if it doesn't then it will be looked back on kindly and with positivity as time passes. The basic premise of the movie is clear from the trailer - Man falls for a cutting edge very Human like Robot and wants to get married. So it is pretty difficult to imagine a satisfying and still "realistic" ending for the movie. I commend the writers on finding a pretty good ending which feels like it can be a real possibility and doesn't become a standard "Kuch Bhi" happy Bollywood ending. It is also good that the story not only shows the potential of AI but also comments on the nascency of our understanding of AI and its potential impact. This ending is going to be very hard for the masses to digest. I hope it isn't too good for its own good.

Kriti looks stunning and is pretty well cast as the Android and Shahid looks blindly in love with her. The support cast is good. Dharmendra is good and a pleasure to watch but somewhat wasted in the role. The music and songs are catchy. The jokes are funny. The movie has all the right pieces to become a hit but its theme, genre and well executed but difficult to satisfy ending may be the biggest challenge to it has to overcome For me the biggest negative of the movie is that we have already seen way too much of the movie in the trailer and songs. There are additional funny bits and the ending is completely fresh and new but the trailer feels like almost a 2 minute version of the movie without the ending sequence. The movie is entertaining and the right step towards making new types of movies. I liked the movie. I appreciate this daring effort at a new kind of Romcom. I even applaud the difficult to satisfy ending....but I didnt love the movie. 7/10.
