[edit] Synopsis

Prem's (Ranbir Kapoor) strategy in life were very simple - be happy...make others happy...keep the town happy... But these supposedly simple strategy usually results in disastrous consequences for Prem, and the members of his Happy Club and the town!

It may have been a case of mistaken identity that led Prem to kidnap Jenny (Katrina Kaif). And it was sheer greed that made Prem try to pull a fast one over her father. As for sweet and simple Jenny, brought up by indifferent and uncaring parents, all she longed was to love and be loved in return.


And it was love and only love for Jenny that made Prem turn over a new leaf. From hardly working vagabond Prem began working hard to make money... From a besotted Romeo, he becomes a mature and thoughtful Majnu who put Jenny's happiness above everything else...As for Jenny...she loves Rahul (Upen Patel). That's when she realises that she had made a mistake with realizing who she really loves.


[edit] Reviews

Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani received generally favorable reviews. Subhash K. Jha (film critic and author of The Essential Guide to Bollywood) states: "If you've ever wondered what on earth is on-screen chemistry here's your one-stop all-purpose encyclopedia on celluloid magic. Fasten your 'see'-it belts, as veteran filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi sheds all his Lajja, and pulls out all stops to do a wacky goofy edgeless weightless comedy of characters who walk in and walk out of frames leaving behind fumes of old-fashioned funnies. Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani is an airtight trapeze down that familiar romantic lane."[3] Nikhat Kazmi of the Times of India gave it four stars and states: "The newly formented Ranbir-Katrina chemistry sets the screen on fire in this mad hatter's tea party. Adding to this is Pritam's peppy music score with Neeraj Shridhar, Atif Aslam, Hard Kaur, Sunidhi Chauhan and Mika raising a toast to high-spirited song and dance and Raj Kumar Santoshi penning some of the funniest dialogues in recent times and you have a great escape awaiting you at your favourite audi this weekend. Go, have a ball."[4] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film four out of five stars arguing that it "entertains majorly" and that "the romantic moments are endearing. Most importantly, the on-screen chemistry is electrifying. Ranbir and Katrina look great together!"[5]. Noyon Jyoti Parasara of AOL India gave the movie 3 out of 5 stars saying, "Its strong point, apart from Ranbir, happens to be its clichéd settings."[6] Omar Qureshi of Zoom gave the movie 3.5 out of five stars saying that, the main point to be noted in the film is that, the film is totally dedicated to love and all the things that are related to love and so, it will leave an ever lasting impression on youth.[citation needed] Minty Tejpal of Mumbai Mirror gave the film 3.5 out of five stars, saying that "it seems that Ranbir Kapoor can do nothing wrong. He is just fantastic through the film."[7]

Other critics disagreed. Mayank Shekhar of the Hindustan Times gave the film one star and suggests that the film has no "comic bone at all. There is certainly no romance either."[8] Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN gave it two stars and calls it a "silly comedy that goes for slapstick gags and juvenile jokes that are hard to appreciate."[9] Tanqeed.com review said that "The movie tries very hard to be another Andaz Apna Apna" and that "The movie has a 90's hangover" and "the movie is neither Ajab nor Ghazab".[10]
