Catching Up - Anjana Anjani

Anjana Anjani looks dish straight out of YashRaj Dhabha...
  • The story set in foreign location [Here it's in NYC and San Francisco via Las vegas]
  • Gorgeous looking lead pair
  • One sufi song by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan
  • And absolutely crap story line
The only thing missing is Punjab di meetti ki khushboo. Anyhow so Anjana Anjani is story of two stupid people who can not get through a Suicide plan. Reasons for suicide, well our Wall Street Hot shot [Read Ranbir] is so irresponsible that he took 12 Million dollars [yeah you read it right] loan for his company without any consent from his partners. As global meltdown start, our WSHT [Wall Street Hot Shot] is first one to go. As the easy as it could get, he decides to jump of from NY bridge to end all the misery. For our HIGH ON ALCOHOL [Read as Priyanka] its dard-e-dil, her childhood sweetheart [Zayed Khan - yeah things got worse] betrayed her over a firaang. To get even with him she does the same [same pinch same pinch]. Unable to maintain the relationship our HOA decides to end her life once for all. And ofcorse end up at the same time at NY bridge just next to our WSHS. 
Needless to say, they both fail to die, they try N number of ways unable to do so. Our HOA thinks this is some kind of sign and they should wait till the actuall TIME comes. The time has decided 31st Dec - New Year Eve @ NY Bridge [oh so typical]
Now WSHS and HOA has got 20 days to kill. The problem with Anajana Anjani is that it's too pretentious and outrageously simplistic movie. If it's Sajid Nadiadwala production, no one is willing to take anything seriously, but it promotes itself something that you have never seen before. Priyanka Chopra is contuining her 'why should boys have all the fun' act and simply irritating to say the list. Ranbir looks bored in the movie and nothing better to do. Songs on the other hand is the only saving grace. The movie certainly has Jab We Met hangover to it but never reaches to even that level.
The moment they both meet at the bridge, you somehow predict what is going to happen next and surprisingly exactly same things follows. Duh!! the movie present itself as so cool....but has very little fire within.
