'Jia Aur Jia'
U/A: Comedy-drama
Director: Howard Rosemeyer
Cast: Richa Chadha, Kalki Koechlin
Rating: 

'Jia Aur Jia' seems promising at the start. It follows two women as they embark on a road trip to Sweden, which proves to be life-changing. They have nothing in common, except their name. They are like chalk and cheese — Jia one, Kalki Koechlin, is outgoing and bratty. She wants to live life to the fullest. Jia two, Richa Chadha, is aloof and depressed, and wishes to end her life. But, the two talented actors fail to pull off this drama due to director Howard Rosemeyer's naivety. The clichés render him incapable of doing justice to the concept, with the film sinking into a morass of boredom.
