Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, which liberally echoes DDLJ and every other major romance to come out of Bollywood in the last two decades.
How much you enjoy 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' depends entirely on how much you've missed the typical Karan Johar formula.
Read the full reviewA slightly more mature Ayan as storyteller, and technically his craft is a few notches higher too. Yet just like Bunny, Ayan's cinematic idiom still seems trapped in a happy-go-lucky teenage universe.

Even his love story a demure girl-next-door who skips her heartbeat for the commitment-phobic boy isnt novel, but his leading cast makes it work.To Ayans credit, he does the unthinkable and makes the stereotypes work, rather…
A dynamic or a sedentary life? The daily dal-chawal or the scrumptious tangri kabab? Chasing dreams or letting go of them?

How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
