U Me Aur Hum is a crude lift of Hollywood romance The Notebook based on the novel of the same name by Nicholas Sparks.
A pale imitation of the fine Hollywood romantic tale, U Me Aur Hum never once scales the entertaining heights of The Notebook.
U Me Aur Hum is the tale of a young man Ajay Mehra (Ajay Devgan) whose beloved wife slips into Alzheimers Disease. While it happens after long years of happy married life in The Notebook, the wife Piya (Kajol) gets Alzheimers at just 28 in U Me Aur Hum.
There are way too many discordant notes in U Me Aur Hum - irrelevant side stories of Ajay’s friends Vicky and Natasha, the constant bickering of Nikhil and Reena, sub-mediocre acting by Kajol, so-so acting by her real-life husband Ajay Devgan, lack of chemistry between Kajol-Ajay Devgan, irrelevant song intrusions and overall poor execution.
While U Me Aur Hum is overall a sub-mediocre movie, several parts of the second half are plain boring. While the music is hopeless. |
