You can definitely call someone the master of an art form, if he truly defines the art he performs. When it comes to film making, a master tells stories that are told in such a way that they substitute reality for some time, for those stories told so beautifully, tend to connect with the hearts of one and all. Stories of those kind, were told by the story teller, the master, Sir Yash Chopra.
This conclusion of the amazing work that he has left behind for generations to come, is very apt as per his standards. Jab Tak Hai Jaan is beautiful in every respect. The writing in terms of the dialogues, the screenplay, the picture-perfect frames and the music which was beautifully complimenting this magical piece of work. In fact, I saw glimpses of many YRF movies in this one movie.
The movie is a little long but I won't say that it drags. The story may seem absurd to some but when you can applaud cars and people flying all over the screen, you surely can respect the depiction of emotions.
Shah Rukh Khan is still what he is. The same guy who has been singing, dancing and charming us with his smile. Truly a star, who still shines. Yes, he does love stories and he does justice to them like nobody can.
Katrina Kaif is noticeable and Anushka Sharma is very natural while executing her role.
Overall, JTHJ wins you over.It tells you that how a good movie is made, how the plot runs in every bit of the screenplay, how powerful writing creates "moments" worth remembering behind the backdrop of breath taking frames, how it all just fits together making so much sense and how a smile reaches your face once the end credits roll. It makes you miss the master, Mr. Chopra.
This is definitely a master stroke by the master himself.
My Rating- 3/5
PS- Those bombs exploding in the trailer weren't a gimmick after all. *giggles*
Awesomely written :)
