Snapshot of the story
Hum Tum is love story story of flirty, careless, disrespecting guy Karan Kapoor and simple girl Rhea. Their love story starts with a fight like all other love stories usually do, then patch up and fall in love again with each other. There are too many emotional scenes in the movie, especially with Rani Mukherjee that might bore you.

Movie Reviews and rating - Hum Tum

Karan Kapoor (played by Saif Ali Khan) is a cartoonist at the news paper agency and has his best cartoons going under the name “HUM TUM”. He is a careless, frivolous and flirty guy having no space for girl’s feelings. Rhea is a simple girl (played by Rani Mukherjee), both of them meet on their way to New York. Two of them are opposite poles and has a big difference in their practical view towards life – especially love. In order to put the things right Karan kisses Rhea which results in the fight between them and leads to much resentment for each other.

After this incident they co-incidentally meet again at different places and the drama continues. Karan joins with his mother’s event management company to manage a wedding and there he comes to know that Rhea is getting married to Sameer (Abhishek Bachchan). Few years later when Karan goes to Paris to visit his father he finds broken Rhea who has become a widow as her husband died in an accident. He now being mature helps Rhea to get out of the sad situation but unfortunately does not succeed, then he meets her mother and promises her to bring the best groom for Rhea but he fails there too. It was good to see the guy who does not believe in relationship and used to say that love does not exists looking for a commitment.

Gorgeous Rani Mukherjee with cute and handsome Saif Ali Khan have given a good performance as expected. Saif Ali Khan was a perfect cast for Karana’s role and so did Rani in her emotional scenes. Director Kunal Kohli has shot the film exceedingly well and has extracted best performances from all the actors of the movie. Knitting animation Alias “Hum Tum” with the storyline was amazing idea of Karan Kohli to be appreciated.

Final Thoughts

Movie is good emotional love story and gives many chances to laugh but some where movie fails to convince the audience. Story narration is weak, which is something he will learn over a period of time. “Hum Tum” is yet another mile stone is Jatin-Lalit’s professional life with good mix of light romantic songs to disco and Hip Hop track by Rishi Rich.

Rating
“Hum Tum” bags 7 out of 10 stars for the outstanding performance by all the actors, good music and exotic location of Europe. Strong storyline and screenplay would have made it bigger box office hit.
