Kajol’s dad Shomu Mukherji expired yesterday morning. Mukherji's passing away on the eve of the release of U Me aur Hum, the directorial debut of his son-in-law Ajay Devgan, cast a pall of gloom in the family.
Me Aur Hum is a good movie but not without it share of flaws. For a directorial debut, Ajay Devgan has done a good job. The story of a boy falling head over heels in love at first sight with bits of humor and a few songs, make for a entertaining first half.
What I liked about the movie:
The music by Vishal Bharadwaj is very good. Background score in the second half is great. The cinematography is brilliant. Its Kajol who stands out yet again with a brilliant performance. Always lively on screen, fantastic expressions, great smile. Kajol is the soul of U Me Aur Hum. Ajay Devgan known for his hard hitting roles, is good in a romantic role, although a bit off in highly emotional scenes. Isha Sharwani looks gorgeous, performs well. Sumeet Raghavan is a great actor also the only supporting character worth-a-mention. Divya Dutta is average, looks plumpy. Sachin Khedekar is good. This is intelligent storytelling, supported by incredibly well-written, thought-provoking dialogues from Ashwani Dhir.
What I didn't like about the movie:
Karan Khanna in a comic role, is irritating.
Would you recommend this movie to your friend: Yes
