Watch Online Love U… Mr. Kalakaar! (2011)



Think Rajshri, and 'squeaky clean family entertainer' is probably the first thing that will pop into your head. Love U… Mr. Kalaakar! is certainly squeaky clean and can be watched without either parents or children cringing at various points throughout the film, a rare occurrence in today's Hindi film scenario. But entertaining? Well, let's just say that it's no Maine Pyar Kiya or Hum Aapke Hain Kaun...!



It won't be surprising if most people walked out of Love U… Mr. Kalaakar! feeling like someone pressed the rewind button to ten years ago! The lead pair falls in love during the course of one song and confesses their love through another. The hero drives an old Fiat while the heroine still has to sift through actual photographs to choose her groom and most importantly, Tusshar Kapoor makes his return as the solo hero exactly a decade after his debut Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai. In spite of all this, most of the film does take place in the cut throat contemporary corporate world.

The plot is both simple and familiar. Boy meets girl. Boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. Both fall in love. Girl is rich. Boy is poor. Both have to fight for their love. Only thing here is that the hero isn't exactly living a hand to mouth existence, but is an artist, which according to the girl's father is pretty much the same thing.

Ritu, a management student and the only daughter of businessman Deshraj Diwan falls in love with Sahil, an artist/cartoonist. Mr. Diwan doesn't have a great impression of artistes owing to a previous experience involving his sister and refuses to give Ritu's hand in marriage to Sahil, except on one condition. He challenges Sahil to prove that he can succeed in the corporate world by giving him the chance to run his multi crore empire for three months. How the young lovebirds overcome all obstacles to win Deshraj's approval without compromising on Sahil's choice of career is what the rest of the film is about.

Debutant director S. Manasvi also juggles the script, screenplay and dialogue of Love U... Mr. Kalakaar! and it is obvious that he truly believes in his subject matter. The film carries the heart warming message expressed by the Beatles so many years ago 'All you need is love' – and the director manages to get the message across, even if it's not very subtly done. This is also the first film for cinematographer Saurabh Vishwkarma and it is to his credit that the lead pair look so perfectly beautiful. Amrita is all dolled up while Tusshar has never looked so well groomed.

However, the director might want to have a chat with the hair and costume department. They've managed to make the petite and pretty Amrita Rao look loud, garish and over the top in quite a few scenes. Watch out for frilly yellow number at the art gallery and her ill fitting blue birthday frock. Also, the set designer seems to have gone overboard with the blue in the office and forgotten the option of simple, white walls.

What is usually the USP of a Rajshri film, turns out to be the biggest dampner for this one. Simplicity is often appreciated by audiences, but many portions of Love U... Mr. Kalakaar! border on simplistic. In one particular scene, Tusshar's art teacher says, "Wow, you really are amazing!" when he rightly guesses the colour used in a painting as cobalt blue! Anyone who has ever used a Camlin water colour set in school will know that shade of blue. Similarly, Tusshar's overnight success is simply too much to digest. Just because he sees that the number of people waiting for cabs are more than the number of taxis and therefore understands supply and demand doesn't mean that he can run a company with a Rs. 250 crore turnover!

All in all, everything seems two dimensional, what with everyone turning over a new leaf in the end and everything falling into place for the leading pair. There aren't even any grand song and dance numbers a la didi tera dewar deewana, or remotely entertaining characters or the trademark Rajshri pets to engage the audiences.

It's obvious that Tusshar has put in his sincere efforts into the character but it looks like he's trying too hard to act carefree and free spirited, which is a paradox of sorts. His expressions seem to be standard and hardly differ when he's saying goodbye to the office staff and when he learns about his Rs. 8 crore contract. Amrita looks and acts the part of a management student, but it does seem slightly odd to have her mouth words like 'cool', 'awesome', 'dude' and 'super'. Ram Kapoor (looking more portly than usual) is impressive as Deshraj Diwan and Madhoo returns to the big screen after more than a decade as Ritu's bui. Prem Chopra makes his mark as Ritu's nanaji, but he's no Dara Singh. Jai Kalra is hardly menacing as the main villain, though Yatin Karyekar manages to elicit a few laughs as his sidekick.

The music score by Sandesh Shandilya lacks any foot tapping, catchy tunes. Sarphira sa hai dil manages to leave an impression, mainly because of its soothing melody and picturisation, as does bhoore bhoore badal, but the rest simply fade from memory.

Bottom line? This family film with an endearing message is a pleasant enough watch, but don't expect any surprises, laughs or thrills. To say 'Love U...' would certainly be pushing it!
