Folks... This movie is for all those loving couples out there who believe in true everlasting love and commitment. Shraddha Kapoor is the most endearing actress since Madhuri & Deepika. Bollywood has unearthed a real diamond.Aditya roy is perfect for the role. Both he and Shraddha make a lovely pair.The movie will end with a joyful smile on your face. Perfect Honeymoon movie!!!

OK Jaanu (2017): O Kaadhal Kanmani is one of the best romantic films in recent times and it mainly worked because of its terrific casting and brilliant music and sensible direction by Maniratnam.OK Kanmani did wonders with a simple plot so remake of such film needs a perfect output to become a success.A proper casting will be enough for remaking OK Kanmani and Shaad Ali selected Aditya Roy Kapoor and Shradhdha Kapoor in OK Kaanu.Did their chemistry looked as lovely as Dulquer and Nitya Menon?Plot: A love story between Adi (Aditya Roy) and Tara (Shradhdha) in Mumbai who have different goals which may disturb their no worries live in relationship.Plus Points: 1)Music: AR Rahman's soulful music of OK Kanmani is reused here and there is no doubt that even after 50 years this songs will get same response.2)Cinematography: OK Jaanu used the exact same camera angles of OK Kanmani and the beautiful Mumbai looked lovely.Minus Points: 1)Casting: As I had said earlier,OK Jaanu would only work with perfect casting but here it failed terribly.I know that both Aditya Roy and Shradhdha Kapoor are good actors but here they tried to imitate the performances of Dulquer and Nitya respectively and its is the major blow to the movie's feel.There lacked any mesmerizing chemistry between them and this is the sole reason for the disappointment of OK Jaanu.2)Direction: I hope Shaad Ali should never remake any other Maniratnam's movies again.So,OK Jaanu is a terrible remake of OK Kanmani and Rahman's music is the only pro of this movie.My rating 4/10

OK JAANU REVIEW : I was not much excited for this film but i had no other option to watch, so i just watched it as time pass and film wasn't that bad really. A decent story, simple direction, good Chemistry of Aditya-Shraddha, couple of good songs, overall it not a Must watch but it should be watched at least once if you really have no other option in hand. The one thing which disappointed me was, i don't understand what was there in the Script that film has been remade in Bollywood, i mean just to Copy from South, makers could have easily chose a better script. Keeping minuses aside, let's talk about Good Thing of the Film. Aditya and Shraddha did a good job, not great but still on a better level considering Script. Music is decent, not chart buster though. 'Humma Humma' and 'Enna Sona' are my picks. Script is well written but it doesn't look great as a whole. Screenplay is Average. Dialogues were Good till the Interval but in 2nd half it lost its charisma. Cinematography is Very Good, film is shot on real location in Mumbai such as running Train, Streets which is not an easy task. Direction is Above Average, could have been much better but don't know it just didn't connect well. Final Words- OK Jaanu is OK OK film which you can easily watch or tolerate at least once. Just don't keep expectations high, watch it as Timepass. Box Office wise this film will be Average to Semi Hit as i personally think this film does not have enough elements to become a Clean Hit. Watch it or skip, it really doesn't make any difference. I'm going with 6/10* as i can't give 5.5...

OK Jaanu Directed By Shaad Ali Saathiya Movie Fame is A Romantic Drama. It is Official Remake Of Tamil "O Kadhal Kanmani" By Mani Ratnam. Script is Neither Good Nor Bad. Screenplay is Repetitive & Predictable. Direction By Shaad Adds Nothing New To Screenplay Depicted in Tamil Version. Dialogues Are Just Fine.Aditya(Aditya Roy Kapoor) is A Video Game Developer Who Accidentally Meets Taara(Shradhha Kapoor) At Railway Station. They Again Meet At His Friends Wedding. They Soon Begin To Call Each Other, Go Out Together, And Start To Fall in Love.They Agree That Marriage is Not For Them And Decide To Have A Live-in Relationship Instead, And Taara Moves into Adi's Place, Rented From Gopi Shrivastav(Naseerudin Shah).They Wish To Spend Their Time With Each Other Before They Go Their Separate Ways For Their Respective Careers. Meanwhile They Sort Out, Why They Need Each Other And What is Importance Of Being Together Which Tends To Change Their Mindset.Acting Wise, Aditya Roy Kapoor Has A Long Way To Go To Prove Himself As An Actor. He is Just Fine in Few Scenes. Same With Shraddha Kapoor She is Scrictly Average. The Pair Looks Good But There is Lack Of Chemistry. Naseerudin Shah is Not Utilized Effectively But Leela Samson is Better in Her Complex Character As An Alzheimer Patient. Rest Of The Cast is Forgettable.Music By A.R Rehman is Very Average. "Ok Jaanu" By A.R Rehman & Shrinidhi Venkatesh is A Better Composition Of The Lot.Overall Movie Has Nothing New To Offer. It Has Same Plot Like Befikre, A Fair Totally Avoidable.
