Milenge Milenge Movie Review

Poster
Director: Satish Kaushik
Cast: Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Aarti Chhabria etc


The much delayed film of the (ex)much celebrated couple, shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor, directed by Satish Kaushik.
A film on which i had no expectation, as i never like Kareena Kapoor and looking at the promos itself, she looked aweful and Shahid had a childish look, all went boring, except for two-three good tracks, composed by the then-composer only Himesh Reshammiya.
But after reading Taran Adarsh's review, i had some hope on the film, and i watched the movie today...

Its a movie which would have been a superhit if released in 2005 itself...
Its a typical lovestory with many good moments, and many cliches also(obvious!)

The concept of this movie is nice, eventhough its not so new, it is based on Missing Connection and all...
Its executed in a way that the things can be digested by us if we watch it in the sense that its a film only, not a reality.

For me, this movie is Satish Kaushik's best till date. I felt this to be better than the Emosional melodrama Tere Naam..
The scriptwriter manages to deliver a script which is mostly consistent...

And the funny thing is that, despite the fact that everyone knows this is a delayed film, the producers have tried to make a feel that the film is new and fresh product!!
Yes, they have added a songs from Salman Khan's Wanted and No Entry in 2 situations of the movie, to make a feeling that Milenge Milenge was done after these movies...
Also, they have included a promotional song feat, the present Shahid Kapoor...
Leave all those, let me come to the movie..
Regarding the performances, Shahid and Kareena have almost equal screen space, and both deliver decent performances..
Aarti Chhabria was also good, the guy who played Kareena's boyfriend was somewhat boring...
Satish Kaushik good as always, in the 5-10 nminute role...

The two versions of title track were nice, and Tum Chain Ho was also nice..
If you guys have songs of this movie, listen to title track version 2, its sung by Himesh Reshammiya in a non-nasal voice!
My friend was shocked when he came to know that its sung by Himesh.

On the whole, Milenge Milenge would have been a very profitable venture for Surinder Kapoor if released on Dec 23, 2005 itself...
Anyway according to box office reports, the film recovered its costs, the movie did better than expected in the box office.
The film deserved a higher success...

6.75/10
