Review
What happens when two guys are in love with the same girl? And what if both the guys have the same name too? If the girl expresses her
love, either of them is likely to believe that it is directed towards him.
Sooraj Bharjatya’s latest venture Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon is a mushy romantic drama based on a case of mistaken identities.
The film tells the story of Sanjana (Kareena Kapoor), who lives in Sunder Nagar along with her parents Satya Prakash (Pankaj Kapoor)
and Susheela (Himani Shivpuri). Completing the family picture is Sanjana’s elder sister Roopa (Tanaz Currim), who is married and
settled in the U.S. and Sanjana’s two pets – parrot Raja and dog Johnny.
Like any other Indian mother, Susheela too harbors a dream of finding a perfect husband for Sanjana. Her search ends at Prem (Hrithik
Roshan) who is supposed to visit the family for some time.
So, enters into the picture Prem, who is the complete antithesis of Sanjana. Despite the differences the two click because of Prem’s
jovial nature that draws Sanjana close to him gradually.
But things get complicated in the second half with the introduction of Prem’s suave boss (Abhishek Bachchan) who is also called Prem.
Now Sanjana’s mother begins to see Prem (Abhishek) as a better prospective groom for her daughter.
And when Sanjana admits her love for Prem, it is conveniently presumed that it is directed towards Abhishek. But what is in Sanjana’s
heart? Whom does she really love – the happy go lucky Prem (Hrithik) or grim and sensible Prem (Abhishek)?
MPKDH does have a slightly different storyline than Bharjatya’s previous movies but the setting is the same – a swanky home
bustling with friends and family members and servants.
Himani Shivpuri and Kareena Kapoor make an ideal mom-daughter screaming pair. Kareena does display a good histrionic range throughout
the movie, particularly in the second half, which is littered with emotional outbursts by Sanjana.
Hrithik overdoes his easy-come-easy-go character, although he does tone down a bit in the second half. Abhishek’s brooding demeanor is
not the least captivating. He keeps a bland expression through some of the scenes that could have been enacted really well.
Even the inclusion of Sanjana’s two pets Raja and Johnny in the story seems too deliberate. The poorly animated Raja particularly
begins to irritate after some time.
Despite these flaws, MPKDH manages to captivate audience in certain portions. For instance , the scene when Kareena admits her
love for Hrithik for the first time as she walks out of her college or the Valentine Day sequence.
In a nutshell, the movie offers a wholesome family entertainment. It will specially appeal to the NRI who dig movies that are based on
the values of Indian family system.
