Jab We Met-A Quick Review

Imtiaz Ali is back after that sweet little love tale- Socha Na Tha, this time with Jab We Met.We see the Shahid-Kareena pair for the 4th time ( Fida,Chup Chupke,36 China Town) & this is definitely the best of them all.

The chemistry shows wonderfully & you actually hope that itsnt their last movie together with all the controversy behind them!!!The plot is very simple- Shahid is a failure both professionally & personally and is planning to end his life.

He comes across Kareena in a train.She's a nosiy, slightly irritating girl & somehow they end up missing the train in between.She then threatens him to drop her home all the way in Bhatinda,Punjab.Thus begins a DDLJ style journey home.

Kareena is in love with Tarun Arora & plans to elope.Her family reminds you of Pyar To Hona hi tha.As Shahid helps her elope, her family thinks they eloped together.Shahid returns to his business & he now gets super successful ( wow!if only things coudl be so simple).

Her family now confronts him thinking she is with him.He learns that she is in Shimla & that she has been jilted by her lover.Thus begins another journey to get her back home.And yes its a predicatable happy ending.Though the plot is very familiar it is very easy going & you just float along.Kareena is the soul of the movie & has some whack one liners.

Music by Preetham is good especially Mauja hi mauja.Go for this fun ride!!!

Rating-3/5
