Well, i decided to relax and clear my mind on Saturday after my BS313 before heading back to my books. And of course, i wanted to spend time with my lovable Nurul. Haha! It’s been a while since we last caught a Hindi movie, So we were geared up to catch one. I honestly have not heard of U, ME Aur HUM. I actually wanted to catch Jodhaa Akbar but it stopped showing at Shaw Jade. It’s the fictional Historic Movie of the Mughal Empire, starring Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Yes, she has Bachchan now as her surname when they showed Sarkar Raj (Sarkar 2) clips. A powerful name indeed.

But back to the picture. While i was teaching tuition, Nurul was busily watching the clips of the movie in her room and was immediately excited over the show. It is a movie copied from the ever acclaimed Nicholas Sparks’ The Notebook. Fans who have read The Notebook first must have indeed been disappointed with the movie. I know Nurul was deeply flabbergasted and utter disappointment sketched over her face when i asked about The Notebook movie.

(They clearly said from the BEST SELLING NOVEL)

Well, if you have loved the book and was disappointed with the movie. Have no fear, for there is a movie that gives The Notebook every credit it deserves, not to mention the tears streaking down your face too.

U, Me Aur Hum (You, Me & Us) Trailer

It is a Bollywood film staring two A-list married actors, Ajay Devgan as Dr. Ajay & Kajol as Pia. Produced and directed by Ajay Devgan himself. (The couple have always wanted to spend more time together. Guess, the only way to ensure that is by a making a movie themselves). It is a tear jerker, indeed a sure Blockbuster and I can’t wait for it to win awards. The story is about Dr Ajay, a psychiatrist, falling in love with the beautiful waitress, Pia, on board of a beautiful getaway crusie ship. Well, it’s basically how boy meets girl, boy gets girl. But thats where the typical Bollywood storyline ends as problems arise. Not your typical Bollywood problem. A major problem, one that deals with the mind and threatens to break their relationship apart. I will not tell too much but those who have seen or read the Notebook knows about it. It surely encompasses and educates the public over “IT” (Hehe. Guess my readers will be pissed of by it!)

U, Me Aur Hum is a brilliant copy of The Notebook and trust me when i say that it is able to fill your heart’s desires with the same words that struck a chord in your heart when you were mesmerised with Sparks’ words. I have to praise the actors, Ajay Devgan and Kajol. Any unqualified actor would have failed and bring shame to the movie. For surely, one has to have wonderful dramatic skill to successfully display every inch of emotion and feeling to portray on screen with which words that had the ability to cause millions of women out there to cry. Certainly, Bollywood is at an advantage here with its dramatic scenes, meaningful music and it’s emotional binding lyrical Hindi language that’s able to capture your heart. (Indeed, the title itself is already able to move your soul.)
