‘I. Me Aur Main’. featuring John Abraham,

Story :
The title of ‘I, Me Aur Main’ should give you enough
hints about its basic plot. It is the story of a self obsessed and
highly selfish guy called Ishaan (John Abraham). Ishaan is a music company executive
and he is an extremely spoilt brat. He lives in the apartment of his
girlfriend Anushka (Chitrangada Singh). While Ishaan is carefree and
flamboyant, Anushka is more mature and committed. She tries to get
Ishaan to mend his ways, but is largely unsuccessful.
After being fed up with his attitude, Anushka kicks him out. Our self obsessed Ishaan soon finds himself in the company of the bubbly Gauri (Prachi Desai). The two of them seem to hit it off for a while.
But things start getting complicated and Ishaan is forced to introspect. His pampering mother, angry sister and the two women force him to take some hard decisions. What are they? Who does Ishaan end up with? That forms the story.
Plus Points :
John Abraham looks handsome in the film and he has
done a neat job as the self obsessed urban male. Chitrangada Singh and
Prachi Desai are good choices and they have played their characters
well.
There are some good moments in the first half. The
portrayal of John’s relationship with Chitrangada starts off on a good
note. Raima Sen, Mini Mathur and Zarina Wahab put in neat performances.
The film’s short run time of approximately two hours is a bonus.
Minus Points :
The film loses its way completely in the second half
and there are a lot of unexplained gaps in the story line.
Predictability also sets in. Sheena Shahabdi fails to make a good
impression.
None of the songs in the film really stand out. They are neither melodious nor do they have good visuals.
The sub plots involving Raima Sen and Sheena Shahabdi do not gel with the main story line and will distract viewers.
Screenplay goes for a toss in the second half and
the movie’s pace dips considerably. A lot of cliched scenes come into
the picture.
The climax sequence is poorly executed.
Technical Aspects :
Cinematography is just about ok. Director Kapil
Sharma succeeds to a certain extent in the first half, but he loses his
way in the second half of the film. Perhaps, tighter editing would have
helped.
Music is very mediocre and so is the background score.
Verdict :
‘I, Me Aur Main’ is the messed up tale of a
narcissist. The film starts off with some promise but loses its way
completely towards the end. It ends up as a very predictable and boring
watch. You may take a look if you are a die hard fan of John Abraham.
