U Me aur Hum - Movie Review

If you like mushy mushy romance, sweet words, beautiful imaginative world, then this movie is for you. You shouldn’t miss it. That’s U Me aur Hum. Its about both of ‘Us’. Not individuality. A really good effort by first time director Ajay Devgan.

The movie goes on a storyline of a couple, meeting, getting married and facing reality written in fate. Ajay [Ajay] & Piya [Kajol] meets on a cruise. Ajay is a psychiatrist. And a happy go lucky guy wooing and partying with his friends, two couples. Piya is a waitress. Living in her dreamy world, when she gets time after serving people. Both get along and things goes on. Both get married, and twist in tale starts when Piya gets affected by Alzheimer. A disease in which patient forgets frequently even normal things. How does the couple face this situation is the second half.

Movie starts off with a very beautiful title sequence. Graphics so cute, clouds and sky. So sweet title song sung by Shreya Ghoshal. Really good song, words and theme. Though Vishal Bhardwaj has disappointed me in this flick, [only two songs are good]. The movie shows Ajay in 50 something age, trying to woo old woman that s kajol. And tells this story. [why this kind of flashback?? See for yourself].
And then beautiful………….aerial shots of sea and cruise. A very beautiful ride for eyes, seriously each shot on cruise is filmed so beautifully that we wish to be there. Helicopter cameras are used for aerial shots when the two falls in love. All those moments are picturised so mushily. Kajol’s dreamy world is so nice. Also in second half, white look is awesome. Kajol looks ravishing when she falls in love. Ajay does his stud role perfect. The song ‘Jee Le’ with salsa beats is also good. ‘dil dhakda’ and ‘phatte’ songs are total waste, and causes movie to be dragged. Very poor, vishal. Dialogues are always a highlight for Ajay. Here , its ‘U know something……’. Is a catch line for Ajay. Which gradually goes with Kajol. All dialogues are worth between Ajay & Piya.

Acting dept. is always on a hype, when these two actors get along. Ajay and Kajol performs with great chemistry. Kajol is a scene stealer overhere. Be it in first half, as a girl falling in love, or in second half, a married woman, getting into tricky situation, getting Alzheimer. She is always my favorite. Ajay also does justify his character. But together as ‘Hum’ they both are a treat to watch. Also tear jerker. There are a few scenes when u feel like crying. I wont tell the situation, but the scene of Ajay, drinking with friends, and telling jokes, and telling he is so selfish. And then two couple [his friends] changes their mind. The scene is so emotional. The best one among the two scenes. The second scene is the climax of course. Also the title song, U Me Aur Hum, sung by Vishal, is so much in place. So emotional also. This is the genre I just love about movies. Where I can get lump in my throat.

A must see, if you are in love. Must see if you are just married. Must see if you think your married life is going into hell. Overall Must see for all couples.

And people like me too !! who loves all mushy mushy sweet sweet imaginative world.

How many stars I would rate?? That’s 3.5 out of Five. [just because of draggy first half and bad 2 songs]
