Jawaani Jaaneman Movie Review - Right up Saif's alley
Updated On: 01 February, 2020 07:08 AM IST | Mumbai | Mayank Shekhar
The lead female part belongs to a young actor who goes by the screen name Alaya F. She seems supremely confident and naturally at ease, for a debutant holding her own, standing alongside veterans Tabu and Saif Ali Khan.

This is an urbane coming-of-age film. Except the person coming of age, is 50! How do you reconcile that with reality? Hell you can. Look around you closely on any given day/night — especially at bars, house parties, etc — and you might just find yourself surrounded by overgrown man-children from Generation X (born between 1965-79), grappling with existential issues on life and responsibilities, more common among 20-year-olds few decades ago.
Look closer still, and you might notice how there's physical de-ageing going on among folk well past their 40s as well. They just seem so much younger in general (and I say this for women too). The lead character in this romantic comedy of sorts is one of them.
