Pal Pal Dil Ke Ssaath belongs to the 60s

It is at times like these that I really hate my job. On a public holiday getting oneself to a cinema hall and watching two back to back movies, both extremely unbearable is definitely the worst torture that one can inflict upon oneself. It was even a big task convincing the multiplex staff to play the show of one of these films as they were canceling it for lack of audience So, I saw this film with just two more people. They were actually a couple seeking some solace in a crowd free environment enjoying the comforts of air-conditioning. Wow how confident they were about the number of people that may come to see this trash

Okay coming back to the movie, the film tells the story of a doting grandmother (Sushma Seth) and her laadla pota played by Ajay Jadeja. His parents have died and it is his rich grand mom who has raised him with lot of care and love. But a tiff leads him to leave her house . Taking advantage of this situation the villain company straight out of the 60 and 70s South inspired paarivaarik films start polluting her mind against her misunderstood grandson and even go to the extent of killing her and grabbing all her  property. What happens when her dear grandson comes to know about all this forms the rest of the film

This film was originally titled Pal Pal Dil Ke Saath and was well ready in the year 2003. But  due to some financial problems, it  could not make it to the theatres until today. It’s actually a remake of a South hit film, but  is completely stuck in the 60s n the 70s brand of cinema. High pitched melodrama, scheming minds wanting to grab wealth, misunderstood grandson, over dotting grand mom and a jigri dost forever ready for help, all these things have now long been discarded. The only just about okay thing about the film is its locations and a few tuneful numbers by music director Abhishek Ray.

Ajay Jadeja should be banned from acting. Not only is extremely wooden with just an idiotic smile forever pasted on his face, he simply cannot express any different emotion. Mahie Gill ,Ajay’s romantic interest, doesn’t get much scope and is there to just to provide  eye candy. She acts awkwardly though and doesn’t carry the same confidence or ease she displayed in Dev.D and Gulaal. Vinod Kambli, another bad actor, however manages a few laughs which are actually more for his lack of acting skills. Satish Shah is okay. Sushma Seth seen after ages is good though. Newcomer Chabi has still a long way to go as far as acting is concerned.
