Review of Jashnn
The story of Jashnn is very simple but many people are getting disappointed for they could not see a match between the songs of the movie and the storyline. Akash Verma (Adhyayan Suman) is a self-proclaimed rock musician & his first love is his guitar. Her sister Nisha (Shahana Goswami) is the breadwinner of the house and Aman Bajaj (Humanyun Saeed), a married businessman, takes care of the finances of the brother & sister. Sara (Anjana Sukhani) is US returned girl who falls in love with Akash and is the brother of Aman Bajaj.
The movie starts with a scene of Akash sitting in the middle of an empty stadium, singing & strumming on his guitar, and imagining the stadium to be packed and roaring with applause. And then the watchman interrupts. All that is fine. Only because Adhyayan doesn’t get to say much in all that time. When he does talk and perform, he needs much improvement. He needs acting classes. He was much better in the latter half of his second film, Raaz – The Mystery Continues.
Shahana is a wonderful actress and has done an exceptional job in the film. But girl, you desperately need a good fashion designer. Her outfits in the film are terrible. Newcomer Humayun Saeed is quite the surprise package. He completely overshadows Adhyayan. He has by far one of the best villains, who can steal the audience’s heart.
After a few unfortunate events, Akash leaves home to make a living. Akash then strives to realise the dream he started off with in the film.
The directors, Raksha & Hasnain, don’t seem to be inspired by Hollywood movies this time like they did in The Train & The Killer. Many guitarists found Adhyayan holding the same G chord and want him to learn some chords since they could see that he doesn’t know guitar at all.
People have found the music of the movie terrific. The song, Aaya Re, is the film’s lifeline. Three cheers to the music directors Sharib Toshi, Aftab Nauman and Sanjay Chandelier. Many others are big hits in discotheques & radio stations.
Final Verdict: Only music can save it.
