Kucch Luv Jaisaa Movie Reviews

Madhu (Shefaali Shah) is a middle-class Bandra housewife and a mother of two, whose birthday is forgotten by her husband Shravan (Sumeet Raghavan). Upset and lonely — and a victim of the seven-year itch — she overcomes her disappointment by believing that “today is the beginning of the rest of your life”. She heads to the mall, undergoes a makeover, swipes her husbands’s credit card on overdrive (yes, she even buys a car) and feels a little better

KUCCH LUV JAISAA takes you back to 2002's MR. AND MRS. IYER. That film saw Rahul Bose share a unique bond with Konkona Sen Sharma. Now, he shares a similar bond with Shefali Shah. Speaking about Shefali Shah, it's her first film as a lead actress. Her unexpected pairing with Rahul Bose ups the curiosity quotient about the film. Madhu Saxena (Shefali Shah), a housewife with two kids isn't really content with the way her life is moving

Kucch Luv Jaisaa is largely a case of promises unfulfilled.

With an interesting premise, KUCCH LUV JAISAA had the potential to be a great film. Nevertheless, it’s a decent watch, ‘kucch’ hadd tak.

Madhu Saxena (Shifaali Shah) is the bustling busy housewife and mother of two angelic kids. Her parents dote on her, the in-laws worship her, family friends look up to her. But Madhu's life isn't perfect. Her husband is barely aware of her existence. And while she craves the romance and excitement, which is conspicuously absent from her life the husband trips on share prices. Well, not so idyllic after all. Birthdays are a huge event

It must be weird to be born on February 29, a birthday you can celebrate only once in four years. To be fair, there are only two people I know who share that birth-date: Morarji Desai and Superman; quite unlikely, we’ll know what either felt about it. The third one, as it turns out, is the heroine in this film. Her rare birthday is also when this daylong movie is set. Her husband, let alone the kids, doesn’t appear to remember this special day

Here we go. Yet another film with Luv/ Love/Pyaar in the title. This one stands out however; it’s the most humdrum of the lot. The story is about a bored housewife Madhu (Shifaali Shah) pushed to despair by her workaholic husband’s indifference. Taking a cue from her children’s handiwork she decides that ‘today is the start of the rest of (her) life’ and goes on to celebrate her birthday painting the town red, solo. Next she hooks up with a gun-toting

The film opens with a song which aptly captures the diminishing chemistry of a married couple, over the years, in a swift transition mode. How one wishes debutante director Barnali Ray Shukla could show the same alacrity throughout the film, which sadly turns into a lethargic lesson into nothingness. More than a decade since their marriage, romance in certainly not as candyfloss as it used to be between Madhu (Shifaali Shah) and her husband

A frumpy housewife leaves her house in a tizzy one morning and ends up spending a very strange day with a man who is her polar opposite. Middle-class mummy meets low class hood : the central idea of ‘Kuchh Luv Jaisa’ is not such a bad thing, but plays itself out clunkily. Madhu (Shah) is the kind of woman you may know. Bright and smart, holding the fort for husband and kids, feeling increasingly sorry for herself. Shah is a good actor

In a nutshell, Kucch Luv Jaisa lures the audience to the screens but doesn’t know what to do with them, becoming a clear case of curiosity killed the cat.

On the whole, KUCCH LUV JAISAA fails to deliver. An exercise in boredom and monotony!

Kuch Luv Jaisaa is assembled from every possible spare part required to make a laughably bad film. Its offences come by the dozen, but the worst is its portrayal of Indian women as gullible, easily misled, irrational dodos. Even the recent Govinda film Naughty at 40 is more resplendent with intellect.
