YEH JAWAANI HAI DIWANI...my reviews.

कैसी तेरी खुदगर्ज़ी
ना धुप चुने न छाँव
कैसी तेरी खुदगर्ज़ी
किसी ठौर टिके ना पाँव ...
कैसी तेरी खुदगर्ज़ी
लब नमक रमे ना मिसरी
कैसी तेरी खुदगर्ज़ी
तुझे प्रीत पुरानी बिसरी ...
मस्त मौला मस्त कलंदर
तू हवा का एक बवंडर
बुझ के यूँ अन्दर ही अन्दर
क्यूँ रह गया ...
This is how life truly is...
dunno about others...but I have been through this paradox of life.
And somehow...such conflicts rarely leave us....until and unless we become passive and immune...or better still...the goal is reached.
Ayan Mukherjee has such developed sensibilities...I am truly impressed by the maturity,with which each character was dealt with...keeping the refreshing quality intact!
The 'selfish' pursuits...as seen by the world are the pursuits of the soul...and there can never be anything selfish about them...to be torn between the conflicts of...shade n light...destination n waywardness...the desired n the just missed ... that what was n that what could be...plague a human mind..incessantly...and none can run n hide from them.
Those who stick onto their dreams ,carve a niche...the rest just exist.
The boozing and the general waylaid mannerisms are reflective of the conflicts too...and of taking the youth for granted..spending ruthlessly...what one has in abundance....Ayan Mukherjee portrayed it all with the same lazy and crazy pace,as it is experiences by the confused youth.
He is trying to drive a point home...GET A GRIP!
Cause Avinash,despite the happy ending is still a failure...a loser...cause he made mistakes...mindless boozing was one of them.
I guess,in that very pace and scenario,lies the true message of the movie.
When I saw the movie last night....I was left with few distinct thoughts...one of them pre-dominantly was...there is nothing selfish in pursuing one's dream...cause you only live once.
Ranbir's character was a learning experience,in ways more than the obvious.
there is youth...and then there is youth...some wasted...some mundane...some convinced in the "ordinariness" and then those,who see things beyond the horizon and become exceptional achievers.
The wasted lots and those who are hell bent on taking life for granted ,need to see this movie.
It is a wake up call.

  1. O Shintz, I wonder how you prelude the essay errr a scene .. a story ... in such a lucid fashion ! Still let me tell you that YEH JAWAANI HAI DIWANI has no context in the full show ! A jealous but loving friendship .. a lost world re owned,... are all old concepts and it well had worked out a la Jindgi Naa Milegi Doobara had some chemistry been between friends ! Yaar agar baat aisi thi toh tu mujhe bata deta really dampens the film tempoo ! When a nasal song pictured on DP really made DP look funny lipping chick ! In parts the hero RK showed some spark ! The highlight was the DP's friend ..the fire brand Kalki ! especially the beginning scene with DP's mother ! :-)

    1. Perception and impact...are exceedingly subjective Prabhat.
      I firmly believe that there are no laid down,firm and static yardsticks in real life...of individuals,relationships and adaptations of the same.
      They vary...and they vary as per one's own sensibility and perception.
      My personal take on this is very simple...to me each perception exists...and it needn't be put under the knife,judged or condemned,if the impact created is potent and the point is driven home.
      There are people and then there are people...there is no set mold to define them...and so,when a character,developed on the silver screen looks a certain way...it is a take from life itself...however flawed,erroneous,incomplete or moralistic.
