What is the story of this musical journey?
The story of the film is woven around the lives of contemporary youth, their dreams, mutual relationships and family values. The director has kept the story simple and straightforward without keeping it too complicated. The plot begins with some characters who want to live their lives in their own way, but as the story progresses, their paths collide with each other. In this journey, love begins, friendships are tested and some family misunderstandings also come to light. The entire plot of the film moves towards the ups and downs of these characters, the bitter and sweet disputes between them and in the end a big family bond. An attempt has been made to bring drama and twist in the story, which takes the second part of the film forward.
Army of 15 actors and their chemistry
The biggest USP of the film is its huge and powerful star cast. ‘Jeena Dil Se’ features a large ensemble cast of around 15 lead and supporting actors. It is extremely challenging to see so many faces together on screen and do justice to them, but the actors have not disappointed with their performances. The lead actors have worked sincerely with their characters. The actors playing the roles of youth have spread freshness on the screen with their energy. The comic timing and romantic chemistry between the lead characters in the film seems quite natural and fun. The senior actors seen in supporting roles have worked to give emotional depth to the film. The frankness and ease with which the actors deliver the light-hearted dialogues is completely successful in bringing a smile on the faces of the audience.
Adish Rana’s vision and balance of entertainment
Director Adish Rana has tried to prove through this film that he knows how to strike a good balance between the thinking of modern youth and traditional family entertainment. Presenting the 15 actors on screen in a balanced manner and not leaving any character behind testifies to his careful direction. Instead of making the film too heavy-handed or preachy, Adish has presented it as a celebration. His control over the pacing of the film is visible, due to which there is no feeling of boredom in the theatre. He has tried his best to give each character a distinct identity, mannerism and screen presence, which is very important in such multi-storey films.
Colorful visuals and explosive music
Technically ‘Jeena Dil Se’ appears to be a very rich and bright film. The cinematography of the film is spectacular; The camera work has made the entire film very colourful, gorgeous and visually appealing. But the real soul of this film and its biggest strength is its music. Adorned with six big and entertaining songs, the film gives the audience a great musical entertainer experience. Every song of the film fits according to the situation of the story.
The romantic track ‘Saaton Janam’ directly touches the heart with its melodious melody and deep emotions. On the other hand, ‘Akkad Bakkad’ is a peppy song that makes the audience dance in the theatre. The song ‘Madhubala’, adorned with glamor and excellent choreography, shines on the screen, while ‘Tu Lele Maja’ gives a full-on energy vibe that attracts the youth. The background score also supports the comic and emotional scenes of the film well.
What might irritate the audience?
Like every film, ‘Jeena Dil Se’ also has some weak links, which cannot be ignored. The biggest weakness of the film is that its story is predictable. After some time, the audience can easily guess what is going to happen in the next scene or at what point the film will end. Additionally, the screenplay feels too trite and old at places. There are many melodramatic scenes that we have seen in Bollywood films over the decades. Due to the presence of 15 characters, some sub-plots seem to be resolved very quickly, due to which the impact of some emotional scenes is not as deep as it should have been. If a few more new experiments were done in the script, this film could have been even better.
Why watch this film?
‘Jeena Dil Se’ is not a film that changes the definition of cinema or makes you think deeply. This is a pure commercial masala film made with clean intentions, whose sole purpose is to entertain. Despite having a predictable story, its great songs, great chemistry with the cast, excellent comic timing and impeccable direction make it a family entertainer worth a watch. If you are thinking of laughing, humming songs and having a light time with your family or friends on weekends, then this film will not disappoint you. The film is being given 3 rating.
