The expectations from film critic-turned-director Kunal Kohli’s directorial debut Mujhse Dosti Karoge were very high, but the film simply disappoints. The story is cliched and confusing at the same time. And the dialogues in the film are too corny to bear.
Words
like farz, saccha pyar and qurbani are bandied about so many times that they lose their significance.
The entire plot of the film becomes predictable in the first half as the setting of story shifts from idyllic Shimla to urbane London. The narrative flows only till the interval (when Raj discovers truth behind e-mails) and after that it begins to drag. A few inane and ill-placed song sequences follow and further break the story’s flow.
The chief oddity of the film is perhaps the moment when Raj discovers that the girl he has been talking to thorough mails all these years was not Tina but Pooja. Out of the blue he has a change of heart and suddenly begins to feel for Pooja in a ‘different’ way.
The major blow of banality comes in the end when the camera shows pinchful of sindhoor falling on Pooja’s forehead.
Given its attractive starcast Mujhse Dosti Karoge should have turned out to be a potboiler. But the film falls flat due to Kunal’s sloppy and unimaginative direction. Still it is worth a watch for those who dig Hrithik’s nimble-footed dance and Rani’s ‘queenly’ grace.
