“Age does not define maturity, actions do”.
Yashji died at the age of 80 , after a long prosperous life , adorned with Dadasahed Phalke award and Padma Bhushan . He held the biggest banner in Hindi Film Industry , some people argue that he is the greatest director ever in Indian Cinema . His movies have been blockbusters , with numero uno cast and great music. He might have been a great man , a beacon to many but as a director, he had the brain of a 10 year old!! He was stuck in an alternate universe where love is the only thing required to live, the human race as a whole has wiped out poverty, there are no diseases other than some amnesia where u forget the one whom you have loved and the lover starts singing songs(Punjabi) for u to recover. All miseries in this universe are caused by love in excess, the guy is loved by two females or vice versa. This was Yashji’s uni-dimensional view of the world. And we hail this deluded man as the bellwether of Indian cinema. Such a pity!
Yashji’s latest installment (and Thank God the last) is Jab Tak Hain Jaan . It is the most boring and pointless film about love since Dil To Pagal Hain. The story starts with Samar Anand(SRK) an army man of the bomb disposal squad who does not fear death and is titled” the man who can never die”, since he has defused 90+ bombs. Akira (anushka) is a discovery journalist who is making a documentary on him and also happens to get hold of his diary and hence his past of LOVE!!!!..
Samar Anand was a street musician singin “Punjabi” songs in the alleys of London to make a living[selling Power Prash(an aphrodisiac from tele- brands)would have been more sensible and viable]. Then he sees a fairy, Meera (Katrina) he falls in LOVE!!! Now she needs him to teach her “Punjabi” songs for her to sing at her dads 60th birthday. Then she falls in LOVE!!! And we are dragged into the most annoyin melody of the year “Saans mein teri saas …my ass”.Now we expect her rich dad whom Meera can’t disobey to disrupt their love affair , but no , in the most bizzare twist at cinemas this year Jesus comes in between them, yes Samar is met with an accident and is about to die and Meera prays to Jesus for his life and in return she ll leave him, and Samar survives, but without Meera he is a dead man walkin .So he decides that he should put this pathetic inane state of his to social service and joins Bomb Disposal Squad and later on becomes the Sachin Tendulkar of bomb diffusing. Akira reads all this from his diary and guess what , She falls in LOVE!!!.
Akira then goes with the army to different locations showing ample amount of skin enough for the army men to jerk off at night .She is also given an opportunity to film a live bomb defusin with Samar where while defusing the bomb she asks questions about his past love life and a live bomb is just secondary. Actually if Yashji was alive today and a personnel from the bomb disposal squad had seen this movie he would have tied a live bomb up Yashji’s ass and would have told SRK to defuse it with “Saans mein teri” in the background!!.
Akira is on her way to London to showcase her doc movie and she somehow drags Samar too and again Samar meets with an accident , at this point you will pray that he dies and the movie gets over and we go back home but no, Samar survives again with retrograde amnesia where he has forgotten the last ten years of his life and thinks that it is his older accident which happened when Meera was in his life and he demands to see Meera. Take a brief moment here and think , WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE WATCHIN!!!, what bull shit is this , Yashji , this cesspit of a director is suffering from retrograde amnesia for years, he makes one movie about love and after ten years again the same movie with a different cast. How is this movie different from dil to pagal hain, u have Madhuri Srk true love and karishma who plays the second fiddle , or veer zaara where Priety Srk true love , Rani supports, here Srk Katrina true love Anushka the third wheel. The only thing constant is SRK and true love and we are fed up of both..
Akira finds Meera who is still unmarried and together they cure Samar period! After 3 hours of this crap we are subjected to an additional footage of the budda , his work his achievements and that’s where I ran out...........
The only ones I would like to thank are a few mosquitoes who have ensured that we won’t have to sit through something like this ever again. Emaar Hashmi’s kisses have more depth and character than Yashji’s whore of a love story. Yash raj is a good production house they can make intelligent cinema like Chak De or Rocket Singh which inspires and connects . What is detrimental to them is their obsession with this eternal love bull shit. Yashji is no great director , he belongs to the lost generation of Bollywood where they thought cinema was only about melodrama.The Hindi Film Industry has evolved thanks to directors like Kashyap and Dibkar who have directed and produced path breaking cinema and thanks to UTV. It’s time for Yash Raj to produce more meaningful cinema.
