Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, movie review
There is teenage energy, love, comedy, music, emotions and freshness in “Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na”. It is a complete entertainer with a predictable story line that starts with a low pace, a typical bollywood style climax and has many hilarious moments which are impressive. A bit lengthy in the second half, the film deserves a watch for the lively lead pair, wonderful cameos, and writer-director Abbas Tyrewala's fresh approach to filmmaking. Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na movie review...

Ashutosh Gowariker's film is a magnum opus though the only flaw being its 3 and half hours long! Jodhaa Akbar is a sixteenth century epic romance story, the most ambitious hindi film with heavy doses of electrifying drama and wide canvas battle sequences.
