yeh ive seem parents and children who look almost the same or alarmingly similar ofcourse...

but i havent ever seen them be as identical as twins...its not exactly the most plausible or logical situation in the world...😆

but no one cares coz ppl remember anil, sridevi, waheeda and anupama from tht movie...

I actually know a family where the mom and daughter look SUPER ALIKE. It's kinda creepy. But yeah not totally identical. That's really not possible since our DNA's are supposed to be a mix of both parents, not just one. 😆

But I agree if another actress like maybe Kajol Or rani could've been part of this movie...it would've been different

Arre... Why no importance... She and SRK totally stole the show in the 2nd half... Kat literally had blank expressions when she was with Anushka.

Anushka was an integral part of the movie, but not as much as say karisma was in DTPH

^^see come to think of it, although yash chopras past films were gr8, they still had faults like JTHJ did...Sisila had a ridiculous climax, Kabhie kabhie had some annoying characters whoz motivations werent clear, Lamhe had a lolitaesque story line where mother n daughter look exactly the same...those films werent exactly logical either...

but those had gr8 actors to lift the film and make us feel all the emotions, the love, the romance etc...there was a dramatic conflict point...like infidelity, or age difference/borderline incestious nature of the relationship like in lamhe...that made those stories more interesting and we actually rooted for the characters...

but here u have kat "leaving" srk like she "leaves" chocolates n ciggarates... thts the importance u give to ur so called love of life?...hes equatable to an inatimate object thts just a medium of pleasure tht u can "give up" for the sake of a wish?

the entire notion of love in the movie rings soo hollow...



That is EXACTLY my point! Yash Chopra's films weren't really the most logical ones around. Chandni was hialrious...remember how Rishi Kapoor got paralyzed? 🤣 SO OTT!! But Rishi Kapoor, Sridevi, and all the actors of a Yash Chopra film always made us feel, so that even if it was cheesy and silly, you didn't mind it as much!

Here, Katrina just can't do it...and the silliness stares at you even MORE than usual in a YC film.

@red
And that's why I wanted Samar to die, go with Akira, or live alone, be with anyone BUT Meera. He loved her I understood, but I never could feel that she gave a crap about him. The whole post-amnesia scenes are supposed to make us feel that she does actually love him but they fall flat because Miss Blank face can't emote. Heck, even Zain--Samar's friend showed he cared more for Samar than Meera did. 😕

The major flaw i felt in JTHJ was the lack of chemistry between the main leads... You just could not feel for them... They looked very pretty pretty in the first half and thats it... I just could not feel for them when they separated and could not feel for them when they got back together...
For example in VZ or even Chalte chalte, when they separated you could feel for them and thats why when they got back in the climax you felt for them.. Here the climax was so thanda...


Take SRK out of JTHJ, the movie would have been a total washout like Yuvraaj.
