Critics:
A shoddy rip off of Pretty Woman, U R My Jaan might just take away your Jaan if you dare to watch it.

Clashing with two big ticket flicks of this week Mausam and Speedy Singhs is a small time film U R My Jaan. When such a thing happens one wonders why do filmmakers clash their movie with big banner films. But come to think of it, I guess filmmakers in case of Aron Govil are sure that whether a clash or not, there hardly may be anyone who would go watch this film. However, it is our duty to educate you on what this film is all about.


Reena (Preeti) is a wannabe actress from Chandigarh who fights from her family and goes to Mumbai for an international photo shoot with Versachee (Pun intended). The shoot goes kaput, Reena is left with no money and no return ticket. In a bid to get herself some money her agent hooks her up to a NRI business tycoon Akash (Mikaal) who prefers having an arm candy on his business trips. So the shrewd businessman meets a full of life girl and love blossoms.


U R My Jaan may be the nth version of Hollywood's eternal love story Pretty Woman and a bad one at that. There are scenes which are satirically hilarious and scenes lift up frame by frame from the Hollywood film. So Reena keeps using Akash for shopping, getting an audition in a filmmaker's project et al. but when it comes to getting close to the actor she shies away. And the entire film passes like Paranormal Activity with each night passing without any action!


The dialogues of almost every single actor in the film are dubbed and despite such excessive dubbing filmmaker Aron Govil finds it hard to hide the lisps of the lead actress. She not only needs a desperate speech therapy but should seriously take to acting course before she attempts any other film after this!


The lead actor Mikaal fits the bill perfectly and could've salvaged the film had it been for better script and good actress. While the music pierces through the ears and is needlessly shoved on the viewers, the film is filled with continuity errors and out of focus scenes.


To sum it up, U R My may just take away your Jaan if you dare to watch it!
