REHNAA HAI TERRE DIL MEIN
Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein
is a 2001 Indian Hindi language romantic drama film which was directed by Gautha
Menon starring Madhavan, Diya Miza and Saif Ali Khan.
The
film was not so successful during the time of its release but has since
developed a cult following among Indian youth.
The film revolves around the love story of Madhav
(Madhavan) who is nicknamed as 'Maddy' with Reena (Diya Mirza) whose marriage
has been fixed by her parents to Rajiv Samrao (Saif Ali Khan) who was known to
Maddy since his college days.
It has been 18 years old
that this movie had been released but it is one of my favourite movie. The reason
behind liking the movie are:
A Sweet and Simple Love Story
Loving
someone back in the early 2000s used to be an uncomplicated affair. I say this
because people did not have a myriad of social media tools to complicate
matters. In the film, Madhavan’s character Maddy watches a girl on a rainy
evening in Mumbaimovies and that turns into a case of love at first sight. I
guess most of us who have seen the film would remember Maddy telling his father
( played by Anupam Kher) ” Dad, Mujhe mil is my kind of girl”. These 2-3 scenes
are decorated with countless traces of innocence and naivety. Also, a sincere
thanks to “Mumbai ki barsaat for making this scene memorable.
The Comic Timing is Quite Impressive
The
story might sound a bit too predictable, but it has quite a lot of moments to
keep the viewer on the edge of his/her seat. Not only is Vrajesh Hirjee’s comic
timing spot on, but several comic scenes and sequences featuring Madhavan
himself are just as impressive.
The
scene wherein Maddy goes on a date with Reena thinking it is her birthday
is enough to make anybody laugh. A date at a Taj Hotel ends up being a ‘sasta
jugaad’ at a Panipuri thela. Also, who can forget Maddy gulping down big
and juicy chunks of chicken at a restaurant after pretending to be a non-veg
lover? He then quietly sneaks into the restroom and vomits out everything.
Well, it certainly would be no hyperbole to say that these sequences are enough
to make anybody burst into laughter. Moreover, the lead pair’s effortless and
youthful chemistry looks believable and sweet.
Not to Forget,
the Music is Just as Good
A
lot of us fell in love with the young and stylish Saif when he picks up the
guitar and sings “Dil ko tum se pyaar hua”. Vocals, provided by Roop
Kumar Rathod sound easy on the ears. Harris Jayaraj’s music is spot on. There’s
a song for every mood. There’s a melody of the highest order in the song
” Zara Zara” sung by the evergreen Jayashree Ramnath. The song aptly portrays
the vulnerability and fragility present in the leading lady’s heart. Then comes
“Sach Keh Raha Hai Deewana” sung by KK. Lyrics, penned by Sameer Anjaan, are
easy on the ears and do not sound laboured and heavy. Even 17 years down the
line, RHTDM’s music sounds as fresh and charming as it sounded back in 2001.
