Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri movie review
Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri arrives with glossy packaging, a charming lead pair and postcard-perfect visuals of Croatia. Directed by Sameer Vidwans, the film promises romance and family drama but delivers a mixed bag—delightful in its first half and then a frustratingly illogical in its second. Ray (Kartik Aaryan) a wedding planner and Rumi's (Ananya Panday) chance meeting at an airport leads to camaraderie during a trip to Croatia, setting the stage for flirtation amid the postcard-perfect backdrop of Croatia. The narrative shifts from breezy rom-com to tackling taboo family values and generational expectations, aiming to balance entertainment with a social message. Kartik Aaryan is lovable as Ray, a wedding planner whose boyish charm and comic timing instantly win over the audience. He carries the breezy tone of the film with ease. Ananya Panday is ravishing, bringing f ....

Subhash Ghai the self-proclaimed showman of the film industry (a title earlier enjoyed by Raj Kapoor), wanted a replacement for Sanjay Dutt with whom he had a difficult time during the shooting of ‘Vidhataa’ after a search he zeroed in on Jaikishen Kakubhai Shroff or Jackie Shroff as we know him today and who is also lovingly called Jaggu Dada.

Anubhav, movie review
Anubhav has many layers and talks about how life is not completely black or white. It is about a character that takes a positive stand in life, gets on with his decision and then eventually looses his way. One point precisely conveyed in Anubhav by director Rajiv Nath is that men are as vulnerable to sexual abuse as women in the Bollywood which is the Hindi film industry based in Mumbai. Anubhav (Sanjay Suri), Antara (Shruthi Seth) and Aadi (Anoop Menon) who nurture big Bollywood dreams, are products of the Bombay theatre academy. It is by now generally known what all it takes to face the struggle in Bollywood and achieve the success a struggler dreams of.
