Priyanka's hopes high with Teri Meri Kahaani

Kunal Kohli’s Teri Meri Kahaani is about three love storiesspanning over three different eras. Kunal’s every love story has a differentaspect altogether and this time the three-in-one combo worked well. The movieis not based on incarnation neither one would feel it as a repetitive story.



The movie begins in a small village at the outskirts ofLahore and ends in England. In between it takes us on a tour to the heart ofBollywood, Mumbai.

The movie stars Shahid and Priyanka as ‘Aradhana – Javed’ in1910, ‘Ruksar – Govind’ in 1960 and ‘Radha – Krish’ in 2012. The actors areseen in totally different avatar.

First poses pre-independence period’s Sikh girl in love withPakistani lad, second goes around post-independence where a struggling musicdirector falls for a superstar actress of the Golden era and the third is muchrecent, 22nd century’s Radha, a university girl in love with Krish.

While Priyanka’s Love Story 2050 did not succeed, this timeshe seems to be lucky. Is it because of his co-star Shahid or the strong‘not-based-on-reincarnation’ script?

My 4 fun reasons why Teri Meri Kahaani will not be a success


My four fun reasons why Teri Meri Kahaani will not be a success
1) While Karisma’s Dangerous Ishqqwas not quite successful on screen, we wonder if
Sasha and PC will make it a hit. DangerousIshqq included past life regression and doesn't Teri Meri Kahani deal with the same?

Normally we talk about ‘saat janmon ka pyaar’(love of seven lives/birth) but in case of Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Choprait’s a ‘teen janmon ka pyaar’ (love of three lives/birth) in Teri Meri Kahani. The story takes us through a journey of eternal love between a couplewho have vowed to love each other not only in thislife but in every life to follow. Isn’t the janmojanmo ka pyar script too cliché or too out-dated?Do we need to say anything more?




2) Priyanka Chopra was avoiding public appearances with Shahid aftertheir love story went for a toss. She consistently did movies with, Ranbir Kapoor, SRK and Hrithik Roshan. Will she be able to share the comfort zone onscreen space with ex-beau?

3) While people around the tinsel town were busy linking up Piggy Chops with Harman Baweja, Sasha, and then King Khan of Bollywood, PC thought ofplaying safe with some women-centric movies like Fashion and 7 Khoon Maaf. Afterthe two hit6 women centric movies we wonder if Priyanka will sail safe in thisromantic drama, Teri Meri Kahani withSasha.

4) While Ranbir and Shahid both havedeclined to work with Sonakshi Sinha stating that she is too old for them. WillPiggy Chops and chocolate boy Shahid make a good pair/good chemistry? They wereok in Kaminey, but again that wasn’tcompletely a love saga.

All we can say is ‘get a life people’. Someone please stopthis past life regression love story and get us something cool to watch.
