Are you happy with JAB TAK HAI JAAN title/name? - Page 6

TBH the title stumped me at first as you associate 'Jab Tak Hain Jaan' with Hema Malini's song in Sholay. But when I read the poem I felt it was a well thought out title. But since the poem was written by Adi Chopra I think even the title was his doing and not Yash Chopra's. So dont blame Yashji if you dont like the title. The last film which he made on his own without Adi's interference was Darr and that was YC's last film that I loved.

You know the title would have made a big difference in Hollywood but I highly doubt if it is the same case in Bollywood. Nobody rides on a title anymore from what I have seen so far. People are hell bent on the star cast and less importance is given to the plot or the screen play prior to release. But things are changing... Which is a good thing

Have you noticed that in all these pre movie release interviews, actors always say that their movie is different but it is not at the end. It's the same old story with different actors portraying roles. Well it's just my pov 😳

Not too sure about Hollywood coz I am not a big buff of Hollywood movies (like Italian and Irani cinema besides Bollywood)
imo Bollywood had real good taste in titles in the past like Pakeezah, Do begha zameen etc..even Taare zameen par is a beautiful title.

If JTHJ would be a run of the mill goody goody routine movie I would have not even thought about its title as many Bollywood films nowadays lacks meat & content and don't take theirselves seriously... but when we have YC, ARR Gulzar and a serious romance based theme on a lavish level made with utter seriousness given to the product, than I think that much attention should have been given to the title which imo is not original (taken from the mukhda of a song of a masala action movie) and unappealing on the face value.

If YC would have chosen a beautiful title DIL TOH PAGAL HAI (it sounds boring now due to constant repetition over the years, but was awesome when came original for the first time) for a funfilled movie that didn't took itself way too seriously, than for a full of emotions movie Jab tak hai jaan... hmm... maza nahi aaya

In love Irani cinema, its way too out of the box... do try these ones 1. taste of cherry 2. Children from Heaven. 3. The day I become a woman 4. Baran (rain) .. beautiful cinema u just have to keep yourself with the pace

I know many have disliked DTPH and called it a plastic movie (which was true though) but for some reason I liked it... it always kept me glued despite of all of its silliness..I find it energetic, colorful & entertaining

yeah he gave only duds after rnbdj (which was also not some great cinema) even an otherwise MNIK was not properly handled by Karan
