Since their separation Raj has found solace in Pooja’s company. He has been in touch with Tina through e-mails from her. Little does
he know that these e-mails have been sent by Pooja, who loves him deep inside and could not bear to see him hurt over Tina’s
indifference. Raj has forever been under the impression that it was Tina who sent him messages.
Time passes and one day Tina returns to revive her friendship with Raj and Pooja. She is immediately attracted to Raj because of his
caring attitude and down-to-earth persona. And when Pooja tells her the secret behind the e-mails she has written Raj on her behalf,
Tina is delightful.
Meanwhile Pooja recedes into sidelines and represses her love for Raj. Tina too is not happy concealing the truth behind e-mails from
Raj.
Will Tina tell Raj the truth? Will Raj come to know Pooja’s real sentiments for him?
Review
The expectations from film critic-turned-director Kunal Kohli’s directorial debut Mujhse Dosti Karoge were very high, but the
film simply disappoints. The story is cliched and confusing at the same time. And the dialogues in the film are too corny to bear.
Words like farz, saccha pyar and qurbani are bandied about so many times that they lose their significance.
The entire plot of the film becomes predictable in the first half as the setting of story shifts from idyllic Shimla to urbane London.
The narrative flows only till the interval (when Raj discovers truth behind e-mails) and after that it begins to drag. A few inane and
ill-placed song sequences follow and further break the story’s flow.
The chief oddity of the film is perhaps the moment when Raj discovers that the girl he has been talking to thorough mails all these
years was not Tina but Pooja. Out of the blue he has a change of heart and suddenly begins to feel for Pooja in a ‘different’ way.
The major blow of banality comes in the end when the camera shows pinchful of sindhoor falling on Pooja’s forehead.
Given its attractive starcast Mujhse Dosti Karoge should have turned out to be a potboiler. But the film falls flat due to
Kunal’s sloppy and unimaginative direction. Still it is worth a watch for those who dig Hrithik’s nimble-footed dance and Rani’s
‘queenly’ grace.
