Jab Tak Jai Jaan Math Dek 'Jab Tak Jai Jaan'

Warning: Spoilers
When you watch a good movie you don't feel the time tick. This movie made me wait for the interval. Talk of unrealistic situations, illogical moves, immature dialogs, annoying acting or sheer stupidity - the movie has it all.

Sharukh makes disposing bombs look as simple as cutting cake.

Anushka strips off her clothes like she is about to pole dance but instead jumps into water. She realizes the water is cold, hard for her to swim and is about to die. Sharukh waits until she is almost dead and then saves her. Why? - Well, thats what guys dumped in love do. Later in the movie Anushka boasts of being a super girl - swimming champion, rock climbing, you name it. Super girl who could not save her own sorry a@s ! Anushka thinks she is a next generation girl because she has intercourse before love. Carries an ambition of having s@x with all races. She wears shorts even in Ladakh - I guess this is to help her in her ambition. Looking at Sharukh who has been in love (possibly without s@x) for 10 years makes her crave for him.

Anushka just walks in film Sharukh diffusing bombs. She does not wear any bomb suite either. When Sharukh is diffusing the bomb and Anushka is filming it, there is absolutely no seriousness - Its like filming a cooking show. Its rather worse, instead of asking him questions about the bomb, she is busy talking about his love story while she carelessly swings her video camera.

Talking of Sharukh's past - The difference between 10 year old and young Sharukh is a clean shave.

Kathrina just falls in love with a waiter who is also a part time beggar. Kathrina and her stupid deals with Sir Jesus will drive you crazy. Sharukh's first accident is funny - There is no plot. He just drives his bike into a junction turning back waving to Kathrina "Byyyee Ayee Aaa Byyyee". Kathrina trades Sharukh's life for Sharukh's love and waves good bye to him.

Hence Sharukh becomes a Major in Indian army, an electronics genius from a waiter in London in just 10 years.

Sharukh comes back to London, saves Anushka from an accident but gets himself into one and loses 10 years of memory. He sees Anushka in the hospital but remembers nothing about her. He then meets Kathrina and is happy it is "Ayee Aaa Ayee" again. Now, when he meets Anushka there is this sudden flash about his army past he feels over his forehead - just like Harry Potter feels a connect with the dark lord. This did not happen when she was right there in the hospital.

Just a bomb in bag at a railway station makes Sharukh gain all his memory. He just walks to the bag giving out technical details about the bomb and the London bomb diffusing squad just give way. If you could not open the cap of a bottle and a stranger wants to give it a try - you would not mind. Its that easy.

Anushka the annoying does her role of annoying very well. She also gives her 2 cents advise to Kathrina which makes her run back for Sharukh.
