Dil
Juunglee

Dil
Juunglee is a romantic comedy film. The story revolves around
the friendship and the love story of Sumit (Saqib Saleem) and Koroli Nair
(Taapsee Pannu), along with the big and small nuances of a relationship. The
ups and downs of love and friendship are portrayed with the angle of fun,
madness and craziness.
Koroli, the sole child of a London based business
tycoon, settles in Delhi to fulfil her ‘pursuit of happiness.’ Much to her
dad’s disappointment, she has no interest in upgrading herself as an
entrepreneur and wants to settle down with a man and be a mother to her future
kids. She teaches English at the British council in New Delhi which makes her
feel content and satisfied in her own way.
Sumit, a typical Lajpat Nagar ‘launda,’ wants to make
it big as an actor in Bollywood. He works as the star trainer at a local gym and
has clearly worked on his aesthetics and physique. He is a highly ambitious
chap with star-studded dreams of walking the red carpet, brushing shoulders
with some of Bollywood’s finest.
He joins Koroli’s English class at the Language School.
Initially meeting one another as a teacher and student, their proximity
escalades when they meet each other in a nightclub. Later, this creates the
path for attraction and the radically opposite duo gets close to one another.

fans is the boisterous Archana, a girl working at a creative agency – which

Jaane
Kyun De Yaaron is about two boys who dream to change
their ordinary lives and also change the corrupt system as they take a stand
against police brutality with the little help of a benevolent guardian.
Raghu and Abhishek are two young rap singers, living in
Mumbai, trying to further their careers by making an album. They are beset by
rejection after rejection from cynical and dismissive financiers, even though
their young fans love them. The tables seem to have turned when they perform at
a function and meet Shera - a larger-than-life figure who offers them help
should they ever meet a problem. His presence is reassuring, and he is the
strongest character in the film. From here their lives take a downwards spiral.
Abhishek is accused of driving while drunk and of assaulting a police officer.
No-one will listen to him despite the fact that he was not driving and he was a
victim of police brutality. The support of their families and their loyalty to
one another is all that holds them up at this time. The upshot is that they are
misused by corrupt policemen and lawyers and ultimately Abhi is found guilty
but.. - Shera has seen all that has happened, has put in place a mechanism that
exposes their corruption and when confronted by his evidence, the guilty
officers and lawyer admit their crimes. Abhishek is freed and he and Raghu
succeed in their music ventures. The film ends with hope - hope that corruption
will be beaten and hope for young people that all is not lost till there is
someone like Shera who is willing to take a stand and challenge injustice.
