Critic Review

‘Jawani Jaaneman’, made under the direction of Nitin Kakkar, is a story of changing standards of relationships in society. You can call it a youth-centric film. To justify the modern form of the relationship seen in this film, the director has shown a sense of choosing a foreign background with indigenous characters.

Story: 40-year-old Jaswinder Singh aka Jazz (Saif Ali Khan) is Dilfenk, a runaway from the commitments. He considers marriage, children and his responsibility as the biggest obstacle to his freedom. This is the reason why despite being parents and brother-in-law, he remains alone. Jazz, a broker, spends a lot of time in the club drinking alcohol and spending nights with new girls. He is happy in every way in his life, but then comes a 21-year-old girl named Tia (Alaya Furniturewala) in his life. Like the other girls, he wants to flirt with Tia as well but is lost when she learns that Tia is his daughter and is pregnant without marriage. Will he once again revive Jazz’s past as he tries to get rid of Tia to escape the responsibility? The way he ran away from the responsibility of becoming a father, will he now turn his back on his daughter and her future child? To know this, you have to watch the film.

Review: The story of Nitin Kakkar, who has directed films like ‘Filmistan’ and ‘Friends’, is modern but there is newness in it. They go straight to the main point of the story without spending time setting up the characters. The story runs fast in the first half, but the story dulls after the interval in the second half. However, the arrival of new characters brings some freshness. The film manages to laugh in many parts. The climax seems predictable, but thankfully it does not have melodrama. The characters are seen flowing in the flow of the story without being confused about right and wrong. There are many composers in the film, but the music has become average.

Saif Ali Khan’s swag, body language, acting, energy, and emotion make Jazz’s character memorable. There is no doubt that he seems perfect in such urban characters. In this role, he introduces himself to be a capable actor. This is Alaaya Furniturewala’s first film, but she has lived her role very smoothly and beautifully. She has all the possibilities of a good actress. Tabu entertains in her small role, but a strong actress like he should have got more screen space. Kubra Set has strong acted as Saif’s friend Riya. Kumud Mishra has done a good job in the supporting characters. Artists like Chunky Pandey, Farida Jalal are doing fine.
