Teri Meri Kahaani is a much-awaited triple-treat tale of love and romance, which weaves three stories spanning over different eras into one single flick
Story:
The story takes us through a journey of eternal love between a couple who have vowed to love each other not only in this life but, in every life to follow. Their love is so strong that even destiny wants to bring them together. In 1910, during the midst of freedom struggle, a muslim boy (Javed) falls in love with a punjabi girl (Aaradhana).Next it switches to 1960, where an aspiring music director Govind meets and falls hopelessly in love with the most successful actress of the era Rukhsar.
And finally comes 2012 in England, again love rekindles between a hot chic Radha and the sexy dude Krissh. Call it destiny or whatsoever, a boy and girl meet in different eras to rekindle their love for each other but fail to take their love to finality. So, watch out the film to learn whether love wins over the destiny or not.
Performance and Direction:
Shahid Kapoor is a complete surprise package in the movie. Kapoor is seen in such a gritty role for the first time and to one’s surprise he has done justice to his respective roles from different eras. In short, Shahid does an exceptional job throughout the movie. On the other hand, Priyanka Chopra was just outstanding in her roles.
Since Priyanka and Shahid made a great onscreen pair in Kaminey, and that Teri Meri Kahaani is their first film ever since they parted ways after a rumoured whirlwind romance, also contributes to the audience curiousity. The best part in the movie is the chemistry between the duo and the way Kunal concludes the three stories.
The distinctiveness of the film is intriguing enough to make the viewers hang on and await for every scene.
