I hated both of them. Couldn't stand either of them. Didn't understand what the craze was all about. He was apparently very "cute and hot"- a dangerous combination and she was "hot". To me, he looked like a kid just out of school with too large a nose and she plain and simple irritated me with her over over acting.

But, when they "jab we met"- my entire life changed! Bleddy movie changed my entire life's foundation. Made me sit down and re think all my beliefs. One second you think they're the lamest thing on that which the lamest things exist and the next you're being taught that they aren't the lamest thing on that which the lamest things exist. Instead, he's so cute and finally looks old enough and she does NOT over act- she does just the right amount. So, you can imagine why I was so shaken.

I probably sound like I'm drunk- let me start over. The she I'm talking about is Kareena and the he I'm talking about is none other than Shahid - in - spectacles - and - dancing *drool*

I was literally hog tied into watching this, and now I can't thank my cousins enough - Jab We Met is a must watch. The story line is nothing new- boy meets girl, girl likes someone else- big deal eh? Difference lies in the fact that the humor has been tactfully handled and hence one actually enjoys, the two share an amazing chemistry, the "punjabi ness" isn't over board and the music is absolutely foot tapping. Foot tapping would actually be understating it- it makes you want to stand up and dance along.

Ergo, go treat yourselves. You've been good this year, after all, ne?

All my love.

   yooo!
   
   mesa is back - and i agree - Jab We Met was awesome!
   
   Too bad - I don't think they'll ever make that sort of innocent romantic film again :( - judging from the new movies that have been coming along.
   
   Hows life?

   Yah. I also watched Jab We Met. It was nice. But towards the end it got a little cliched.
   But Kareena looked quite good. Often she looks quite bad.

   @dark: Lol. Yeah I did.
   
   @Koze: She's ugly. But yeah, in places she does look good. Didn't expect you to like it though!
   
   @triya: 'guess the same reaction shouldn't be as shocking as it should be anymore :)

   Will make it a point to see 'Jab we met', then... This is a really nice template with all the great eye-candy.
   
   Happy new year!

   Jab We Met was the first movie featuring Kareena Kapoor (in which she was the only leading lady) which I have enjoyed watching. I thought the genre of comedy was dead in bollywood and every script writer had resorted to the hopeless pun-based comic dialogues until I saw this movie. It was a refreshing change!

    'Totally agree.. There are hardly any "feel good" hindi movies, and this is definitely one of those few.
