After having seen his last romantic comedy 'KLPD', I went to watch the movie expecting another film on same lines. Maybe, that is one of the reasons why I liked Jayantabhai ki Luv Story.
Jayantabhai (Vivek Oberoi) is a street-thug, a small time gangster who works for Altafbhai (Zakir Hussain). Then, enters Simran (Neha Sharma), his new neighbour who is in look-out for new job after her last company got involved into scams resulting in company shutoff. The usual hatred interaction in start turns into friendship and eventually both fall in love.
The conversations Jayantabhai and Simran have when they meet, the hesistancy Simran has to live when she comes to know his profession. The 'anda bhurji' scene, Jayanta getting new umbrella for Simran, zaalim spray and numerous other sequences between them are highly entertaining and fun to watch.
If their pair strengthens the film, then the sub-plot of Jayantabhai's gangster world weakens it. The fight between two rival gangsters, and one of them having a habit of using filmi names while talking.. spoils the rhthym that the love story has set up. The best thing though is that the screen time given to this sub plot is much less, which is quite right given the title of the movie.
Also, the father-daughter cliche of 'that guy is a gangster' is restricted by the director, though I wonder if it could had been completely done away with instead. The climax intends to surprise, but the pace goes too slow. That interview scene made me think if those company people without verifying allow random guys to sit inside, specially knowing its a guy going inside instead of a girl.
The songs are good, my fav being 'aa bhi jaa mere meherbaan' by Atif.
Vivek Oberoi gets his act right this time around, by combining the gangster and lover duo together very well, his chemistry with Neha Sharma was superb. Neha Sharma always amazes me with her looks, beautiful and cute at same time.. and her acting is good too. The supporting cast is okish.
Leaving aside all the cliches and flaws, Jayantabhai ki Luv Story at heart is a entertaining rom-com movie, with some great fun moments.
Verdict : NICE
