Namrata Joshi Outlook 01/17/2019
Second half is all copious tears. Only thing you take back from the film are the loopy laugh of Akshay and the little child who is a natural actor at one year of age. Go to Full Review

4/5
Fantasy, wit and biting humour combine, breathing life into the otherwise staid 'love triangle' formula. Go to Full Review

We keep waiting for one of those outlandish musical treats to bring some life to the clichd script. Kunder throws in a few breaks, but they're tepid and brief. Go to Full Review

B
The film has some minor flaws which do not fully deter from one's enjoyment. Kunder, who also wrote the screenplay, stages some spectacular musical numbers -- some of the best seen in recent years. The musical score by Anu Malik is lovely and enjoyable. Go to Full Review

Albert M Mar 12 What an Awesome Movie!! This has everything!! Best Cinematography, best lighting, best music, best acting, best emotions! Everything is there. A Movie Ahead of its time. See more 08/26/2020 Cheesy but enjoyable, and as usually Bollywood gets me with the emotions. See more 07/17/2012 Salman Khan's best acting by far probably . See more 10/15/2011 Jaan-e-mann is a romantic comedy musical genre movie. Movie starts with Agastya(Akshay Kumar) dancing with a girl on a space station. Then he tells story about his friend Suhaan(Salman Khan) and Priya(Preity Zinta) and how he came as a blessing in their lives. Shirish Kunder loves to do experiments with his movies. So he made this one musical. Although most hindi movies have lots of songs in them, but this one is different as songs tells story in this film. Songs are good. Story is also good. Performances are good too. Anupam Kher has played Boney, a dwarf. Characters are beautifully shown. All three leads during their college time are hilarious. Costumes are fab. Akshay Salman looks great together. Overall this is a good time pass. A simple yet different movie. See more 08/11/2010 A hilarious movie! Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar are obviously great together. Their vast friendship in the movie depict an amazing connection. Preity Zinta is also fantastic. Great music. Funny! Absolutely loved Salman Khan dressed up in various costumes, especially the Elvis suit as well as a female in the night club scene. visually stunning. Fantasy, wit and biting humour combine, breathing life into the otherwise staid 'love triangle' formula. See more 01/20/2010 salmaan in same way of acting songs are good the only thing i like in movie is prity zinta bollywood start with something fresh bot after 1 hour it become same old masala songs , cry , drag to make happy ending See more Read all reviews
