Story:

An enjoyable tale the story begins with Sriram (imran) who doesn’t care about friendship or other relationships. But he has a thing for Dia (kareena) a social activist and firebrand. What starts as a physical attraction ends up getting emotional. At one point, they have their clash and separate. But Sriram is unable to forget Dia and he goes to a village in Gujarat where Dia is working. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.

Performances

Imran Khan gives his usual eyebrow dancing performance. His rendering of the role is bland but his character isn’t. He plays Sriram with a distant passiveness and since the guy is an expert at the inability of syncing himself in the character, the role is tailor made for him as much as Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu‘s lead man.

Kareena Kapoor is feisty as Dia. The actress has never been this close to Jab We Met‘s Geet. As a rule, Imran should only work with Kareena. She makes the actor look good, more confident and mostly act. Theirs is indeed an interesting on screen chemistry. Two actors so uncannily varied are so excitingly compatible is what makes for this film’s driving force.

Shraddha Kapoor shows a marked improvement in her role in the cameo. Her conversations with Imran builds the gusto.

Anupam Kher could have been used better but fitted well in his role.

Technical Departments:

The director has come up with a romantic storyline and while the presentation was rich, the narrative was good in parts. The dialogues were witty. The script was familiar but the screenplay makes the proceedings interesting. The background score was melodious and three songs were worth watching.

Cinematography was proficient as it captured the locales well. Editing was crisp. Costumes were stylish and trendy along with nativity flavor while the art department was majestic. Imran Khan gives a revealing performance and he evolves in a better way.

Kareena was perfect as the high attitude girl. Shraddha was brief but superb. Nizhalgal Ravi made his presence felt. Sujatha Kumar was good. Same with Manoj Bakshi and Neelu Kohli. Others did their bit as required and added value.

Analysis:

The story itself is exceptionally predictable. But the reason why it struck me so strongly was because of its vibrant energy. There are barely any slack moments in this beaten up and typical story. The most common problem with romantic comedies is the use of similar ingredients, which kills the earnestness of the story.

However, the story of GTPM has been framed keeping the casual feel intact but the film doesn’t get flimsy at any point.

The first half deals with Imran realizing his love for Kareena. Most of us have indeed grown up around consumerist ideas and to fathom why someone is willing to adopt an overtly idealistic life is difficult. It takes an America bred Imran a long time to value his relationship and commitment.

The lead characters are appropriate and real. I was particularly impressed with Kareena’s character. Though her modes were overdone in the script but her earnestness is adept at every level. Their break up scene is executed impeccably. To see them translate into words the impression you have of their characters is fascinating.

Romance in today’s world is no longer limited to battling parental pressures or something as lame as North-South culture divide. The issue of idealistic differences matter so much in a relationship these days. And to reflect that in a film with such skill is indeed a rarity in popular cinema.

The dialogues, the conversations effectively reflect the steam that Malhotra wanted to convey to his audiences. I have my reservations about the film’s climax. It is too syrupy and filmy for my taste. But this story will do for me.

Final word: Punit Malhotra’s GTPM isn’t flawless but it is immensely watchable. The film’s positives easily topples its negatives which is why I recommend you to watch this. Kareena-Imran are one unconventionally fantastic on screen pair who make sure GTPM is a wonderful experience for you. Enjoyable romantic entertainer, can be watched
