TERI MERI KAHAANI (Movie Review)

ONE LINER:

Thrice Upon A Love Story!!

EXPECTATIONS:

Well Expectations were never very high after first theatrical but after the second theatrical and song promos interest started being developed.. And after KAMINEY Shahid Priyanka Jodi was being getting together again so there were some good expectations because of their on screen chemistry..

VIEWS:

1960 Era : The movie started from 1960's era story. the story is very well told and acting and direction here is very nice.. The comic monents in this era are really funny and enjoyable. JAB SE MERE DIL KO UFF is awesomely picturised and beautifully sung according to the 60's era..

2012 Era : This Era is very well defined as the daily life relationships going on these days by the means of communications shown is totally truth.. and very well executed story but still it feels that something is missing. Both the songs are very well picturised . Especially the concept of That's All I Really Wana Do is superb.

1910 Era : Now this is the era which is most enjoyable and very well executed according to the era. The dialogues, the poetry , the acting is just too good.. and love angle is also very nicely shown.. ALLAH JAANE is used brilliantly while HUMSE PYAR KARLE is also nice..

STORY & SCRIPT:

Story of all the eras is quite good and the script here is a big PLUS .. script is very good..

DIRECTION:

KUNAL KOHLI is back in form totally on director's seat and maintains his history.. first he made MUJHSE DOSTI KAROGI which was a blunder, then he made HUM TUM which was a gem, then he made FANNA which was half awesome and Half Poor, then he again made a blunder of THORA PYAR THORA MAGIC. Now it was his turn to make a better one and he made a beautiful love story here,, Direction is very good..

Editing is brilliantly done , the way all three story merges in one another is very good..

MUSIC:

Music by SAJID WAJID is a great surprise package. This is there best music other than Salman Khan's movie.. All the songs are beautifully composed. Especially ALLAH JAANE is a beautiful composition and brilliantly sung by RAHAT FATEH ALI KHAN. He got a very good song after many average songs. But the most special song of the album in my opinion is JABSE MERE DIL KO UFF awesomly sung by Sonu Nigam and Sunidhi. MUKHTASAR is also a good composition and nicely sung but could have been much better if it would had been sung by Atif Aslam or Ali Zafar.. but still a good one. remaining two songs HUMSE PYAR KARLE and THAT's What are also enjoyable..

CASTING & ACTING:

SHAHID KAPOOR is the life of TMK. He is best in 1910's Javed .. he has brilliantly acted in that flirty man of that era. He again dips in 60's era character and acted very well as Govind.. Acted well as Krish too.. He makes the entire movie fresh & enjoyable..

PRIYANKA CHOPRA is so attractive and had a great screen presence totally in entire film in all roles she plays.. And she has acted very well too.

SHAHID & PRIYANKA's chemistry is superb. and they both rock together again.

NEHA SHARMA & PRACHI DESAI both are stunning in there respective roles. and played their roles very nicely..

All other actors are very good too.. The role of cameraman played 60's was too good to enjoy.. he was fun.

PLUSSES & MINUSES:

PLUSSES:

1. Shahid Kapoor.

2. Direction & Editing.

3. Music and picturization of songs.

4. Chemistry of Shahid and Priyanka.

5. The length of the movie.

MINUSSES:
